should ladies be training daily?

[Ofeliayoga]

what is the advantages or non advantage to training everyday as a female? I am not just talking about weight training obviously, but lets say i do weights 4X a week, yoga once a week, pilates once a week, and mountain biking once. i would still be training 7 days a week, is that too much or should we still take time off?

 

[stevesmi]

you can do that yes, just learn to give your body a break when it needs it

If a man can they can. Same species.

really? it wasn't obvious to me

Listen to your body. You'll know when its too much

 

[MasonicBodybuilder]

Nothing wrong with staying active like that as long as you take a break when needed.

So here's the thing. Being a woman / the female of the species has ZERO baring on this. Like NONE.

It'll come down to how fit you are, whether or not you recover quickly, how active and or physical the rest of your life is and so on. That's as true of a man / the male, as it is a female / women.

Short of you being 6 months pregnant (therefore impossible for a man) those aspects listed above are all that counts.

If, for either sex, you're doing 12 hour shifts down a mine digging coal by hand, don't eat well, have ailments to deal with, are constantly tired and already out of shape then yeah... it'd be a bad idea.
