Do you exercise everyday?

ajd241 · January 2012

Just wondering if anyone trains 7 days a week or whether you take a day or two off for your muscles to relax?
Depending on the intensity of training I try to take a couple of days off. Just wondered

I try to do something every day - not because I'm looking to "exercise", but I'm an active person. I like riding bikes, or hiking, walking the dog, whatever. As for letting muscles relax, I only lift twice a week, maybe three days, on non-consecutive days to let my muscles heal. But as far as moving around, every day

I do weights three day a week, 3 day split.
I do abs on off days.
I do not do a whole lot of cardio now, besides my job (labor intensive), and hunting on the weekends.

No, I take at least one day off to rest. There have been a few times when I've gone 12-13 days in a row, but there were usually extenuating circumstances. My goal is 6 days a week, but sometimes I'm satisfied with 5.

On my "off" days, I often will take the dog for a walk or something. I stay active, but don't "exercise".

Usually I exercise 2-4 times a week, but recently I have been sick, so I haven't been going to the YMCA.

Yay! Perhaps I'll go tomorrow... *crosses fingers* Hopefully!

I exercise mostly cardio at least 4 times a week. My off days are spent cleaning house, doing yard work, doing grocery shopping, none of which is official exercise, but it burns calories just the same. I also say my work is sedentary, but I am usually standing to do my job. I also have to walk quite a bit on busy days. Then there are the stairs when we go to the bathroom and go to break and lunch. I think I walk about a mile throughout the day in my sedentary job.

I exercise every day unless something hurts (not just muscle tightness, but real pain) and then I take time off until it doesn't bother me anymore.

I exercise 6 days a week, but alternate cardio with strength training and sprinkle in Pilates or Yoga. Listen to your body, bet rest, stay hydrated, and if nothing hurts... keep on exercising.

MyaPapaya75 · January 2012

Only been started for 5 days, but done 5 days straight at the gym (2 hours each visit) and then 90 minutes of competitive football/soccer today aswell.

i do 7, mostly because i have OCD and everything becomes routine, lol.

however, my workouts are fairly low impact; exercise bike, treadmill, walking, weights, pushups, and situps.

occasionally i take a day off if there is absolutely no time or if i'm nursing an injury.

When your exercise is new puppy you exercise every day at least 2 times, with one leisurely walk in addition. It is much, much easier with a canine companion but you need to add his needs as well--like stopping and sniffing at all the wondrous smells.
