    I work out MORE on the weekends. Sunday is my long run day (10+ miles)

    1. I have more time
    2. I can eat more

    This!! I was working out 7 days a week for the last 2 months but just dropped it to 5 at the advice of my trainer.

    I work out longer and harder. I have more time. Plus I usually eat a little more on weekends so it evens out.

    I also do Insanity, so Sunday is my rest day. I usually do Saturday morning so I can get ti out of the way and enjoy the rest of the day. I actually really wish my rest day was Friday instead of Sunday though. I could be easy to slip in a workout while I'm waiting for a load of laundry to finish!

    Both. Saturday morning kickbox. Usually a lighter workout on Sunday, but, like other folks, mostly so I can eat MORE!

    I do long workouts on weekend mornings because I have more time and I'm not tired from working all day. Tomorrow morning I am doing BodyPump and BodyCombat back to back. Excited!!!

    Right now I don't. I do Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Saturdays, I have 1 cheat meal, but the whole days isn't "free". I just try to eat pretty sensibly.

    I work out Saturday through Thursday and take Fridays off. Saturdays are used for my bike ride and a P90X workout and then Sundays are for my long run.

    i work out both days since I have more time to do so. But I do it in the mornings and I just dont like the results from it. Not sure what it is but I feel I obtain better results if I workout before going to bed m-f. But I still do it since I walk my dog everyday plus I feel crappy if I don't, my body asks for worksouts lol

    I usually workout Saturday and Sunday. I may skip my regular workout if I have plans to do something active that day. And some weekends are just too busy to workout.

    If I want to eat more on Saturday I do. I don't usually on Sunday because my gym is closed, but I do wear a fitbit and will try to walk more on the weekends than I do during the week.

    I try to keep the weekends for total rest and relaxation and time to read and just do whatever. I pretty much eat the same way I usually do because I don't count calories. I just eat quality food and no junk. But, there are times when a short workout on Saturday seems to be in order. If I feel like it, I do it. But not often. However, there are a lot of people who do workout on the weekends and enjoy it.

    Saturday is my long workout day so long run or bike ride. During the season, most races are on the weekends so I just follow those during the off-season also. My rest day is friday.

    My husband works out of town, so weekends when he's home I usually skip it! I kind of consider weekends break time and try to work out M-F. Sometimes I get a walk in on Sat. Mornings.

    My hubby too works out of town and is only home on weekends so I don't do my workouts on the weekends, instead I spend time with family, fishing, and working in the yard

    Usually just M-F. However, if I miss a day during the week, then I will do Saturday.

    Saturday is my long run day, so 3+ hours of running.

    Sunday is my "Oh look! A couch! A book! *confetti*" day.

    I lift and do cardio Monday -Thursday. Friday is cardio only. Then on Saturday and Sunday I'll do yoga and/or some core exercises.

    I work out on both days. Saturdays are for long runs and Sundays are for "active" recovery workouts. I normally go out for an easy bike ride or yoga.

    I tend to eat more on weekends so I try my best to workout!

    I do not skip. If I skip, it is usually one day a week. I actually work out more on the weekends because I hike after working out. :)
