Bendy Myth: I don't need rest days!

No matter what discipline you do, rest days are essential! Rest days are when your muscles recover, help prevent overuse injuries, and are just as important as training days.

Your rest days can look very different, though, and doesn't necessarily mean, 'Don't move your body at all 🥔.' You could have an active rest day and do light stretching, light cardio, or even focus on another muscle group.

Below are some responses I got from my lovely circus community 💖
