Is it best to work out every day or every other day?

I'm trying to get stronger legs. I'm already skinny; I just want more leg muscle. I just worked out really hard in the gym today (strider and bike). Should I work out every day or every other day?

when building muscle mass/ strength you should have at least one day inbetween so the body can recover

Heavy lifting, you need days off.

Bike, run, etc unless you're putting in high mileage or high intensity, every day is no problem.
