re: Gym board: How often to you take a break.

When I get sick, go on vacation, or have a really busy week. I would say every 3 months a week hits me where I skip my workouts. I really don't like to go more than a few days though.

Maybe a long weekend or a couple of days if you are just worn out or tweaked something. I go stir crazy when I need to take a week or two off because I pulled something. I would never do that just to rest.

I feel much better day to day when I have been to the gym. I have not taken a week off other than injury in 20 years.
