Recovery day - most relaxing day of the week!

Today I have no training to do, no ergs to complete and generally no exercise is needed at all!
As I've been told to eat as often as possible and eat 4-6 meals per day I thought today would be a good chance to fill my stomach. After all, the body needs food to restore itself and grow.
I'm spending today doing some uni work which is due in a couple of days time, and buying more food which I'll need later in the week. Eggs, milk, bread, pasta are all on the list, being a high carbohydrate and protein content.

As far as sleep is concerned, I'm aiming for a minimum of 9 hours sleep per night. This will give my body time to recover and will allow my mind to stay sharp in everyday activities. Seeing as I don't regularly get a lie in, I'm having to go to bed earlier which is proving to be harder than expected!
