I hate taking time off....but the last time it wasn't by choice. I came down with a mini flu and was out for over a week! I guess my body was trying to tell me something!

All the time. I take 2 weeks off probably 5 or 6 times a year. It really help one to make continued progress and not plateau.

I had to take off a week to go to Hawaii (bummer) and then I didn't work out for 2 more weeks after that. Man talk about a sucky workout!. Now I'm trying to get back to where I was before I took the break. I didn't really mean to take that much time off, it just sort of happened. I think 7 days is the most I'll ever take off at one time from now on.

I take a week off every 2 months and feel any weaker then when I left off. In fact I feel fresher and stronger.

Same here. After lifting really heavy for several weeks, took a week and a few days off. Came back much stronger, physically and mentally.

Just got off a 2 week break. Feels great, the key is to stay active and don't break your diet.
