[quote=Anonymous]I'm a life-long exerciser and have been exercising daily since about 2003. I never take rest days unless I'm injured or really sick, or if I have a killer work day with no time to spare. I've taken 4 rest days this year and 9 total last year. I've been doing this for years and haven't had an injury since marathon training in 2006. (it wasn't an overuse injury.) I'm 43. Instead of a full rest day, you could do something that is much less intense than your usual routine. If I'm very tired and super busy at work, I slip down to the office gym and do 20 minutes on the elliptical and that's my only workout for the day. Or sometimes I'll do yoga and skip the cardio or weights or anything else. Or you could go for a longer walk than usual, or hiking with your kids. [/quote]
