Hi @MBHUNTER 

Thanks for posting about this.  Our Relative Effort feature can help you manage your effort and determine when you need rest. 

If you keep an eye on your Weekly Effort (visible on both Web and Mobile), you'll be able to see your total relative effort for the week so far.  It shows you how you're trending week over week and provides a weekly Relative Effort range, shown by the white band in the middle of the graph. This area represents an estimation for an activity level that allows you to maintain or build fitness while minimizing the risk of overtraining.

Another way to manage your rest and recovery is to use Recover Athletics which is available to all Strava Subscribers.  Recover Athletics will provide you with personalized routines based on your activity data and an in-App soreness tracker.   It provides athletes with warm-ups, drills, general strength routines, lots of prehab activities, and post-activity recovery routines.

Let us know if you start using either or both of these features and how helpful you find them!
