Is better to freestyle everyday, or taking sometimes a break?
It's a complicated thing. Practice is how you get good but if you don't take rest you'll not improve that much. Practice every day, you rest when you don't freestyle.

When you practice you're "breaking" your muscles. When you rest they grow back but put on some extra. The resting is the reason you grow so a guy who practice all day might not be better than one that practices 3 hours.
Yeah, my cousin plays handball and he  has a rest two days every week, but I don't know if it is the same with freestyle :dontknow:

why not?? what august said is completly correct...... but it depends in wich intensiti and lenght you are practising....

Its not the same to train 3 hors a day with a lot of intensity than 20 minutes a day with less intensity.... In case of your cousin he sure trains with intensity and he didnt grow up completly yet...that is why you take reast's....
my uncle started going to the gym when he was 12-13 years old and he went there to push his muscles to the limit and went 5days a week 3 hours a day (was part of the training he need to do for soccer, sport in wich he became pro).... but the problem is that he is now only 1.60  meters high, and he could have grown to 1.80 - 1.85 like his brother.....
 :cheers:


Oh please. There is absolutely no scientific evidence that weightlifting in any way makes you grow less. It's a myth untill proven otherwise.

myth?? dude come on!! my dr recomendate me to not work with much weight...so does the gym guy too... and I swear you to god tht my uncle had growing issues because he lift to much weight... his dad is 185 cm high and his mum 170... his brothers are both +180 and he is 160.... so what else can u give me as an explanation?? he went to doctors and they all told him the same reason.... he even told me tht in every trainig he was pushing his strenght to the limit.....

but I guess you know something about bodybuiliding and tht stuff.... so I dont want to contradict your statemant,,,

 :cheers:


Actually your both right, lifting weights only stunts your growth if you are not fairly developed like pre teen I suppose it varies between people. But Lifting weights doesn't stunt your growth when your mature enough to do them, its more likely to develop your growth and muscle mass through a proper and smart training regime of course. I'd say most users here would benefit from lifting weights instead of avoiding them.
well if you seee it that way , nothing can make you stop growing when your a grown man.

So how often shall I have a rest and how long it should be?

i disagree, of course training is the only way to improve... but i think natural ability will affect how fast you improve, some people just learn things better than others

Hmm I dunno, yeah if you fit, can really do kick ups well, i guess sorta played football mite help ie knowing the ball, and quick feet can all help, but I think its mainly who puts the most effort in.

just like everything else in life some people are just better than others...

for example, some people will take just a day to learn to play a song on piano, others will practice for weeks to learn it... freestyle is no different, some just learn quicker... try teaching a retard how to freestyle
