Why Rest Feels So Hard - But Matters More Than Ever

Casey Season 2 Episode 174

Why is it so hard to rest - even when we know we need it?

In this episode, Casey gets real about the struggle so many women over 40 face when it comes to slowing down. We’ve been conditioned to go, do, and achieve - but in fitness (and in life), constant motion without recovery can stall progress, increase fatigue, and mess with our hormones.

As the Inspire Fitness community moves into Deload Week, Casey explains why lighter weights, fewer reps, and lower intensity aren’t setbacks - they’re strategic tools for long-term strength, energy, and results.

If rest makes you feel restless, this episode will help you reframe it as the most powerful part of your training plan. Because sometimes, doing less is exactly what helps you come back stronger. 💪
