    Others think I am obsessed. I disagree. I work out 6 days a week. I look forward to seeing my friends at the gym. I don't miss a day too often and don't beat myself up if I do. I just missed a whole week because my DH had surgery. I am back and enjoying my routine again. I know i am going to be good and sore later today and will enjoy it.:bigsmile:

    I thought muscles didn't grow/strengthen on the days you workout, but the inbetween rest days. So if people work out 6-7 days a week do they alternate which muscles they use? (so different muscles have different off days to grow)

    I do. I do one muscle group a day plus legs or abs on the alternating days.

    It wakes me up even more and gives me an energy boost. If it makes you feel great I say you can't go wrong..

    Dedicated, not obsessed! :laugh: :laugh:

    If you think about it, those of us who are active most days are really just doing what evolution has programmed us to do. The move away from hard physical labour is a recent development in the history of humanity; it's those who spend 40 hrs a week in an office and the rest of the week being sedentary that are fighting evolution.......and the results prove it.

    I am, but I only do it 3 days per week.
