taking a holiday..what do i do?

[acer290]

For the last week before you leave do all of your workouts to the highest intensity. Maybe even throw in a couple of extra sets in new exercises. Then take the week of from lifting and eat your usual diet.

The week off should be good for your muscles, it will give them a chance to recover fully.

4 or 5 days out of weights won't kill you

unless it is a "4-5 days cheat week"

extra 4-5 days to eat like a pig..

...dont think so...just couldnt do it to myself.

but i think the gym break will be good

What i meant by eat like a pig was not imply to eat sugars or deep fried foods but eat all kinds of food that are good for you. I went out last night to a xmas party and i ordered the steak and baked patato, had some pasta, salad. I did not eat any bread, breaded fried foods yet i came out of that place full as hell. Just have to make sure you know what you are eating.
