The first day after a rest period is always a weird one. The body is in great shape. But the nervous system isnt primed.
After my last decent rest period I did a primer work out in the early afternoon. Sufferfest vid I think. I felt a little 'blocked' but was expecting that. Then went for a walk With my eldest. When we got back he had an hours 'game time'. So I did another vid. At the end I put 5 bpm on my max HR. At least what its been for the last 6 years or so. Lucky accident. But it fits into the 'rest - prime - perform' theory.
