Yeah. I do listen to my body and take days off here and there. Also, I don't workout the same muscle groups back to back, I have my workout routine planned properly. Plus, I have also been eating extremely healthy and not just doing weight lifting, because as you mentioned, everyone has a six packs and it'll be pointless to just get my abs hard as a rock but have it covered by that annoying layer of fat. So for that reason, I do incorporate cardio work as well. Trust me, I've done all the research I'm aware of everything you just said and I've definitely been seeing progress with my body and muscle definition =] It's a lot harder for a woman considering we don't have that testosterone to help us out, but hey! I'm sticking to it, it just takes hard work and dedication. =]
