Thinking of doing some light training for the next week or two.

[from zero]

I think my body could use it. Dips were uncomfortable on my elbow(s) yesterday. I've given my back a beating lately. I'm a bit tired. Been pushing myself pretty hard.

So I think I'm going to allow myself to rest up some, and when I hit the gym this week and maybe next, I'm going to take it easy. Maybe just focus on getting a nice pump. Work on some form with lighter weights. That sort of thing. Then, when I feel I've gotten enough of a break form the lighter stuff, I'll go back and bust out some PRs.

Don't really wanna take any time off. I don't think my body needs that much of a layoff. I feel I should just take it easy for a short time. Been hitting PRs all over the place lately too. I think I deserve a little break.

Periodically taking layoffs or periods of lighter training are a good idea, especially when you notice little pains and aches that seem to constantly reoccur. From what you desribed, it could be beneficial, and after the 2 week period of lighter training, you will probably come back and do exactally what you suspect, and begin hitting new PR's.
