Does anyone workout 7 times a week?

I had a friend that said he would do that, his rest day would just be more of a fun/cardio type date where he would go swimming or just go easy. Not sure if anyone goes 7 days as week, what's your schedule if you do?

I’ve always felt more than 4 days is overkill if your diet is right and you know what your doing in the gym. I like to get in and get out when I’m actually lifting. Bouta start back after Halloween again. 7 days is just too much for me. There’s def some body weight stuff I’d do at home during off days but noting crazy.
This body holding me, be my reminder here that I am not alone.

Yes, most weeks I do 7 days but do a ppl, so I have 2 days of rest between workouts.

In the summer I'll lift for an hour and go paddle boarding for 3-4 hours if the waves are nice, the way I do it it's exercise, trust me. No one at my beach can keep up, young or old.

I've only missed two days this year. I just feel like garbage mentally if I don't lift during the day. I have an entire gym feet away in my garage, so it makes it easy.

Nope. I lift way too intense to be in the gym 7 days a week.

Try to be active all 7 days, at the very least go for a 4 mile jog or a climbing gym or rowing machine etc


Then intense cardio one day, lift the rest. Usually get busy enough though where one day becomes inactive because of activities, travel, etc

I did labor job for 11 months and if I took a day off I would wake up and not be able to open my hands and my whole body would be tense on monday if I took sunday off so I asked if I could work 4 hours on my off day and he said yeah and the cramping stopped happening if I worked 7 days so I did that instead. So kind of.

Huge waste of time to do any more than 4x a week.
