Is it bad to go a whole day without exercise?

    Since you should be giving yourself at least one rest day a week, I would say no, but I like my rest day to be at least somewhat active like taking a walk (not sitting around watching movies all day!).

    Not at all. Short of spending the day in bed you're going to be moving around in the course of your normal day-to-day activities.

    Having said that I get antsy on my rest days if don't at least go for a nice leisurely half hour walk (which I don't log as exercise)

    Sometimes I recommend a week or two break from exercise, especially with chronically high levels of cortisol. Rest is good.
