Rest Days

I dont take any unless I'm in pain or at my grandparents house without a DVD player.

I do it all based on how I feel. Make sure you listen to your body......if your extremely tired/sore when you usually wouldnt be its never a bad idea to take a day off. Taking a day off can also revamp your energy and enable to make you workout even harder and longer which will in turn burn more calories and lead to more weight loss. Taking an extra day off can sometimes make you feel guilty, but you really do need to listen to your body.

I usually take 2 days a week at the max..also depends on what is going on that week. If I know I am going to be super busy one day I use that as my rest day and If I have lots of free time I might just workout all week. All depends! But I do think it's essential to give your body a rest at least once a week.

I take two rest days per week.

It really depends on what your exercise routine consists of. If you're just walking, then I'd say every day is fine.
But if you're doing strenuous weight workouts, you've GOT to rest muscle groups in between workouts, sometimes for several days, depending on the workout. (The trainers at my gym say it takes a muscle 72 hours to recover from hard lifting.) Taking rest days will help you build muscle rather than lose it.
If you're running, you need at least one day off per week (I know this particular point is debatable, but when I was running seriously I took 1-2 days off per week. Any less and my knees were ANGRY.)
Hope this helps!

Well, I originally incorporated a rest day because we had date night and that was the day I just couldn't fit extra exercise in... now I just have one because I'm working out harder and REALLY need it! So, just one.

It was Friday but now I think I may make it Monday or Tuesday, depending on if my boyfriend's schedule stays the same (where he has both days off - then I could spend more time with him and go bowling 'cause it's cheaper on weeknights!! Sorry, way off topic).

one to two days. depends on how i feel. usually after a rest day i workout extra hard

I usually try to get at least 30 minutes of exercise in a day.. even if its just a 30 minute walk. Weekends are a bit harder.. but since soccer has started every Sunday.. its only Saturdays that give me troubles

Rest a day, workout six ]

Like a lot of other people, I judge by how I feel - and also my work schedule.

Usually I have Thursdays and Sundays off though - but even on these days I will do something physical (cleaning, gardening, shopping, country walk etc) it just would be giving my knees and muscles a break from the intensity of the gym!

I try to run 3-4 days a week. Then sprinkle in yoga on my days off. Weekends I am usually active enough that I don't have to do a separate workout.

I am thinking about trying to run almost every day. I've been on a solid 3 days a week for almost a couple years now, and when I don't run I feel "lost".
