Good to have lighter workouts as well, cannot keep going full on all the Time, body needs to rest

Had to do a light session today, I'm tired and weak

You have to listen to your body. I modify my Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) through a training phase each week, with intensities at 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100%, then back to 70%. This helps keep me fresh without going all out every session.

Very smart approach

I totally agree with you @chinz especially when we get older.

I had to take a night off last night, was absolutely exhausted, forgetting things at work and almost nodding off on the way home. I skipped training, ate a bowl of pasta and some sweets..... slept like a log but woke up feeling like I had been licking the dogs ass!! Breakfast and coffee have fixed that so let's see how the day goes.

Everyone has those days. Make sure to drink plenty of water today to flush out. Don’t check your weight for the next couple of days, as salt and carbs can cause water retention.

Lighter sessions are good, if ur feeling weak that's ur body telling U it's obviously exhausted, take a day off recharge ur batteries, rest is as important as working out
