Days Off?

Days Off?

How often do you take days off? Weeks off? I've heard numerous stories... that sometimes your body needs a few days off - or a week off from lifting.. is this true.. do you believe it?

Personally - I am at the gym 5 days a week, sometimes 6 to get some cardio only days in...


What you all do?

 

[wallyd]

I get 4-5 days per week on a 4 day split. I don't usually take off a week of more unless something comes up. Def don't plan it.

Day 4: back & traps

I train abs & calves on alternating days

Has anyone mentioned how much they hate you with your amazing physique and the "only get into gym 3 times a week" blurb... I could prolly go another 4 years and never take a day off - and still not be as good lookin' as you FREAK!

I do a lot - probably too much.

Monday - Lift AM
Tuesday - Run Lunch - BJJ/3 hours after work
Wednesday - Lift AM
Thursday - Run Lunch - BJJ/3 hours after work
Friday - Lift AM
Saturday - Long Trail run AM - BJJ/3 hours immediately afterwards.
Sunday - Off

This schedule, with work and home responsibilities is killing me!

As I get older it seems I shoot for three or four days a week.....no set days....

 

[Vicious Cycle]

Weight training 2 to 3 days a week and Muay Thai 3 to 4 days a week.

Арктика - северная полярная область Земли, включающая окраины материков Евразии и Северной Америки, почти весь Северный Ледовитый океан с островами и прилегающие к нему части Атлантического и Тихого океанов. Название её происходит от греческого слова arctos (медведь) и связано со звёздами: Полярная звезда, находящаяся почти точно в зените над Северным полюсом, принадлежит к созвездию Малая Медведица.
