Could work out everyday or take brakes?

You could hypothetically, but it's generally advised against to work out multiple days in a row without a break day. At least working the same muscle groups consecutively.

Your body needs a bit of a break once in a while to recover and actually build muscle. If you overwork specific areas, like squat like a mofo in addition to deadlifts or something, you'll heighten the chances of you messing up your ACL and having to take time off for that to heal.

i wouldn't want to work out everyday. id get so bored of it and id stop doing it. i need rest days, so i work out 4-5 times a week.

It really depends on the Intensity, if your working your muscles to failure I'd def give them a 1-2 break, but if your just doing regular exercise like running on tread mill then you could do it everyday. So basically if your doing cardio then everyday is fine. If your doing muscle building than 1-2 day break is best for muscle protien to recover.

Heavy workout- your body needs rest.
Light workout- maybe everyday.
Everyday workout may give you muscles soreness.
Work out 4 days a week. And divide into upper and lower body workout. This way you body will get 48 hours of recovery time. Which is required.

Depends on the type of training, how active you are, your fitness level I really couldn't tell you without knowing all those things and more lol.

I work out everyday, if not, 6 days a week.
I feel so lazy and gross if I'm not active. I feel like I've wasted the day away.

Just try to remain consistent, but do add breaks otherwise you'll end up not going when you should.

I workout 5 days a week. For a few months in the last year I worked out even more. I'd say unless your just doing cardio. But if your lifting I'd say take breaks for your muscles to recover :)

Depends on how your body feels
