    You work out 7 days a week?

      I try to. Usually I fail (sometimes school makes this impossible for me). So if I shoot for 7 I end up working out about 5 days a week. Rarely do I get in all 7.

      I hope that someday I'll be at a place in life where I never miss a day.

        I think your body needs at least one day a week to recuperate, even if you're staggering the type of conditioning you're doing from day-to-day.

          I walk/run seven days a week. I don't run on Sundays though, jest walk between 4-5 miles. Not running is my nod to the sabbath

          I may be small, but I'm slow.

            I don't.
            I alternate running and lifting and never lift with the same muscle group more than once a week. For me and my body, this works great. There are a lot of runners who never take a day off and aren't any worse off for it.

              Costco on Sunday is divine. Tons of samples yet very few patrons.
              Well, I don't swim laps on Sunday for exercise, but I'll go to the pool and mess around with my kids. When I swim for exercise, I am by myself, at the gym and focused on burning calories. I'd go for a bike ride with my kids or for a hike or walk but I wouldn't go to spin class or out on a run. Besides, I work out 6 days a week. I think it's good for my body to take a break and why not Sunday?
              What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

                Yeah, while I typically take Sunday off as a literal day of rest from running, I don't have a huge problem doing it on Sunday either and have been known to crank out some miles on occasion when my schedule warrants. I run races on Sunday if the races I want to run are on Sunday, although I will seek out a Saturday race first if I am just looking for something in a certain time period.

                      I have heard this one before too. LOL.

                      Some other favorites. No shopping online on Sundays. No vending machines on Sundays. Because you know, it's about spending money, regardless of whether you are making people work or not.

                        So he doesn't fight with his wife and gets to have sex every Sunday?
                        "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                            He said that the Sabbath was meant as a day for rest. And he felt that was included.

                            I mentioned something about the Sabbath origionally being on a Saturday....but he is hard headed.

                                Maybe they are fans of the "Two for Tuesday" movement.
