How often do u take off

[nate3422]

just curious guys how often do you take like a week off from working out, or just have a week where you work out twice or so? Is this good? I know it gives your body a rest but just looking for some more opinions

I just took a weeks vacation. I usually workout Mon-Sat. I only lifted the first 3 days of vacation, then took 4 days and this weekend off. I'll let you know if the rest helped.

Time off is good. Muscles grow when not in use.

someone who trains year round its good to take a week off at points. sometimes you need it. i usually only let that happen when i go away on vacation or like now being hurt.

I like to take one full week off the weights when I lift year round usually about every three months then I come back and change up my whole workouts to keep the muscles guessing. It also try to time it so it is during vacation time so I don't have to feel guilty!!

I train M W F and take the rest off and add a little cardio in there while "on". I find for me, that I have fantastic results with this. I train for about 45 minutes or an hour each session. I have managed to put on fantastic solid quality muscle this way.

I take a week off every 8 to 12 weeks.
