I'd like to do some type of recreation on my rest days. I really wanted to trail run and hike, but I think that's was to strenuous for a rest day activity - I did try and it was interfering with my lifts (SL5x5 program). Currently, I am swimming because it's not too strenuous and that's going ok, seems like there is no lag in my strength training (Now doing Madcow 5x5), but it's just a little boring. I'm thinking martial arts (Judo, Akido or most likely Eskrima). What do you think? btw, I need to lose weight. I'm at 280 and I'd like to get to about 235 and I have no intention of aborting 5x5 strength training.
