I have a question about this episode Dr. Kyle Gillett: Tools for Hormone Optimization in Males | Huberman Lab Podcast 102 and this clip Exercise Intensity Insights. I suspect that I'm overtrained. I've been doing heavy weights at low reps with long rest times for pretty much the whole year. 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. For Weeks 1 and 2, I thought about doing a 30-minute walk on the treadmill and a 10-minute stretch or foam roll. Then, in Weeks 3 and 4, I would continue with the walks but start a 3-day band routine. After Week 4, I would slowly go back into my weightlifting routine. Is this a solid plan?
