Male 22, been exercising 35mins every day. will having a day off stop my heart getting conditioned?

No: I would not expect your heart to get out of condition if you take a day off from your exercising routine. Cardio exercises for general well being are recommended at 4 times/week 30 minutes/day.

No: A short period of rest does not cause any loss of conditioning nor any immediate decrease in stroke volume. Seeing those reverse remodels usually requires a few weeks off.
