The gym I go to closes for the holidays and I keep ending up missing days. I workout 3 days a week and have 2 alternating workouts. The way my routine is scheduled, if i miss this monday, I will not have worked these muscle groups for 9 days. Is this so long that I will lose muscle or strength in that area? Or are their any other negatives?
ITS HORRIBLE YOURE GOING TO DIE youll be fine man. one more day wont matter, push it hard when it opens up again.
Being a P90X user, I’ve learned the bennies of the “push-up” when not able to get my regular workout. Inclined, declined, regular and military. Good for the arms, chest, back, shoulders, and great for the core. Regardless, a couple weeks of not working out will not harm or turn you into a couch potato.
One day off won't hurt anything, sometimes a take a few days off in a row because your body just needs rest, that's where you build muscle. Just don't make it a habit, its as easy to slip out of your routine as it was to get into it
working out is all about regularity simple as that if you miss 1 day no biggie if you miss 1 week just get back into it if you miss 1 month your body will start to question you if you miss 1 year you dun goofed
Yeah I reccommend looking up some work outs you can do in your room in a quick 10 min. Then you truly have nothing to worry about

Not the end of the world. If theres absolutely no way I could work out though i'd probably just bust out some push ups and pull ups at home...
Yeah i'm in the same situation right now, I use the school gym to work out and we're snowed in right now. Gonna see if I can sneak into the weight room to get some squats off.
