I've taken a few different weeks off here and there, but I kind of feel tired all the time and have a low libido. I was thinking about taking a four-week break away from weightlifting. Is this a solid plan?
How do I know if my workout routine is too much for my body, considering I am a 34-year-old woman, 152 cm tall and weigh 120 pounds?
I'm also eating in a deficit but keeping my protein around 180 to 200 grams. I weigh 230 pounds, and my target weight is 180 pounds.
