Gym rats? What should I do?

I have been going to the gym everyday now for two weeks. I am so sore and I hurt everywhere. Should I push through the pain or take a day off?

If you're hurting vs pleasantly sore, you need a day to recover.

Working the same muscles every day isn't good.

Seriously, it would be a good investment to spend a bit of time with a trainer who can advise you on the best way to workout.

I'm in the gym almost every day, but I vary my workouts from day to day.
