    Saturday is the one day a week when I don't have uni classes, placement or work so I like to put it to good use with a good workout :smile:

    I do lots of things on Saturdays.

    Eg, swimming, surfing, body surfing, beach run, walking, chase kids, multiple sets of 12 ounce curls, etc.

    Saturday is my day to do whatever I want. If it burns calories, then cool. If it doesn't, I don't care. It's not like I don't get in enough exercise during the week, and I don't have to answer to anyone but myself. My butt isn't going to magically get bigger if I don't workout on Saturday, even if I eat 5000 calories. It all balances out.

    Kind of this for me too. Tues-Fri I cram 30-40min gym sessions in (1 weights the rest cardio) before work. Weekends it'll depend on what I've got on. Sometimes I'll go find a big hill and walkup it, occasionally I'll go SUP boarding or kayaking, may be a bike ride or some heavy gardening. Rarely I'll do very little but if its a Saturday like that once in a whil isn't going to kill me, infact it heps me stay on track the rest of the time. Plus Sunday's I always do either a 2km swim or a long (for me!) run of 5-10km. I love the freedom to do what I want and take my time :)

    Because I have all the time in the world to spend at the gym on that day. Four of my six workout days are cramped for time, so I have to really focus on getting my workout done during the time I've laid out for it. On Saturdays I have enough time to do some technique, but my workout is also typically longer or more strenuous. On Sundays I spend even more time on technique, but my workout is scaled back to the point that it's probably the easiest workout of the week. I enjoy the time I spend at the gym, but if working out on Saturday is too much for you, just plan one of your rest days for Saturday every week. Problem solved. :)

    I love my weekend workout days. Saturdays, I usually have a long run 10+ miles and ride my bike. Sundays, 2 hours of spin, weights and 1+ hours of swimming. Both days, I get to relax and nap the afternoon away.

    Because I take all three meals on Saturday too so why shouldn't I workout?
