Default is working out an hour a day bad

I do 30 mins of cardio and switch upper body and lower every other day for 30 mins. my roomate tells me that doing this everyday is bad for me. I feel fine, i have good sleep, i don't break my diet and generally very happy. This is my 9th day of working out like this, im a little sore but not enough to quit i feel. bottom line is when should I stop? Do i need a break?

Do it 5 times a week only, rest for two days.

You won't build muscle while you exercise, you will build it on your rest day.

REST is as important as EXERCISE.

That's up to you, really.

I exercise 5 days a week, 2 hours a day (weather pending), and Monday/Tuesday are my rest days.
