[quote=Anonymous]I exercise fairly intensely and find it helps my stress and anxiety. I run 3-5 miles daily doing intervals and add in elliptical, weights, and body resistance exercises (push ups, planks, etc.). I alternate days that I do muscle work, but have a hard time (anxiety and stress) if I don't exercise at all. I'm also trying to lose 20ish pounds. What's your rules about rest days, and for people like me who use their exercise as a focus to their day and to help with anxiety and stress, how do you make rest days easier? I think rest days might help bump my weightloss, but not if I'm depressed or stress eating from missing the feel good parts of running. I'm not worried about injury. I have stretches, shoes and equipment that mitigates any injury worries. [/quote]
