How many days a week do you exercise?

I was also curious as to what others are up to out there.
I do 3 days of STS, on the other 3 days I do an hour of running and an hour of Muay Thai ( fighting) practice.
I always have at least one rest day a week, and on occasion I only do two days of fighting and cut my cardio day a little short if I am feeling tired. So 6 days is my normal activity level .

5-6 days a week, usually for 60 mins each workout. I will either alternate cardio (of varying intensities) with full body weight workouts, or alternate cardio with STS/split-workout days, or do 30 mins cardio + 30 mins weights each day (like 4DS). On my rest days, I will often do longer stretches to relax and stay limber.

If I do any more than that, I feel like it affects my appetite (either physically or mentally) and I eat more than I need...I will especially crave too many carbs.

To me, this question is like the one where someone asks, "What shoes do you wear for running?"

The answer is different for everyone. What works for one person doesn't necessarily work for another. It should be fine tuned for your needs, your lifestyle and your goals.

I work out every day. I run 3 miles a day and do a workout DVD as well. I alternate my workouts between weights, cardio, AWT and Jillian/Bob type workouts. I don't plan a rest day, but if I have to take one because of other commitments, I do so and don't worry about it.

I work out 6-7 days a week and take a rest when I feel my body needs it. A good rule of thumb is to workout "more days than not". So that means if there are 7 days in a week then at least workout 4 of them so that you r expending more than u r resting. I believe in rest days though, as the body will only tear down and not build up without adequate rest.
