Playing sports as a novice
Hello Rip,
Love everything you do, it has worked great for me.
During an Ask Rip series video, someone asked you if it is possible for a soccer player to following the SS program. You said yes (but then later said that the issue is soccer players don't eat, so it makes it near impossible because they are the type of people who don't eat enough calories to do both).
However, in the book, you say that it is paramount that you get your rest in between gym days and to make sure nothing you do on recovery days makes you tired, because then it will take away from recovery.
Could you please clarify? Is it okay to lift and play sports at the same time as long as you get the calories, or should you not play sports at all?
Does it depend on the sport and the amount of time playing the sport?
Thanks,
Looking forward to the response
