Braithwaite's "how not to be a big girl" tip of the day

Just a thought, but don't plan rest days. Partly because, as was once said to me "college levels of training don't require rest days" but mainly because you will always have days where training doesn't happen even though you intend it. Whether this is illness, injury, or just not enough time due to work etc they are always going to happen, and these can then be your rest days. Otherwise you will end up with a rest day before a couple of "off" days and before you know it you have taken the best part of a week off.
