Your muscles grow while resting not at the gym. 1 week will not make a big difference in your body as long as you eat right and come back. If you feel guilty, you can bring dumbells with you to use. Cardio would also be fine to do but be sure to get the proper nutrition before and after. -------------- Seeking out motivation does not motivate you to seek out results. - Paul
