Alex Flint: How much rest do you need after a workout?

How often should you exercise? If you're hitting the gym daily, you could be doing more harm than good. But if you go every now and then, are you making any progress?

Body Torque Gym Founder Alex Flint joins Tim Beveridge to answer your workout questions.
