How much do you rest in a week?

Naps? I’m not in college anymore man.

HEY....don't knock it because you don't get a chance to nap.

Following because I think I might be over-doing it. I get 9 work outs in per week (3 runs, 3 functional/body weight training, and 3 lifts) and I sleep 4-5 hours per night. I've been on this routine for about 5 months now and my body feels fatigued, but i feel like absolute shite if I miss a workout day.

I don't need a lot of sleep. I can't sleep more than 6 hours in a row no matter how hard I try, but that pre-dated my workout schedule.

Sunday- Lift
Monday- Run & sometype of crossfit or focus session
Tuesday- Lift
Wednesday- Speedwork
Thursday- Lift
Friday - Crossfit or a focus session
Saturday Long Run

No naps except maybe weekend
Sleep 8-9 hours a night

i normally dont have time to nap during the day other than on weekends, i also always rest on sundays, or with the sport I play if we have a hard practice that day i don't hit the gym.
also it's a little worse for me with school I only get a good 7 hours of sleep a night if I'm lucky

i like to do something active everyday but i rest muscle groups that are sore. so when i wake up and my backs sore and my legs are a little tight, il do some chest and core.

The next day i wake up and re-evaluate whats sore and whats not and then go from there.

Weights Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday (Greyskull LP)

Running Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday (30 mpw)

Rest Friday

Sleep about 6.5-7 hours a night. Feel like I need a little more.

I consider Monday a rest day. Just an easy 3 miler about two minutes over easy pace (12ish minutes per mile).
