I normally take Saturday as my day off, because fridays we are usually on the go and up early in the morning. Sleeping is part of muscle recovery so the days that I wake up earlier or stay up later I do not train.

Overtraining?
Most people when trying to lose weight end up overtraining their bodies and this results in poor performance. We know that we are overtraining our bodies when we see performance decline. Feeling sore is a sign that we are working out the right muscles at the right intensity, but we need to let those muscle rest for 48 hours before we retain them, so when sore we should be training other parts of our bodies. Signs of overtraining are: fatigue, soreness, and higher resting heart rate. So if your workout intensity is decreasing and you are not able to finish your regular workouts, take a day off!
