On those off days do light mobility or swimming workouts. You’ve got to keep the blood flowing in those muscles to help the fibers heal faster and of course stretch/ roll out.

Yeah thinking back to those times I definitely think that was a common factor of being just completely static for longer than I should have been.
It helped me so much just doing some light swimming during fire seasons on the off days when my body was trashed. Felt a noticeable difference then when I would not move at all. Motion is lotion baby!
