How to Build Your Own Active Recovery Schedule

I want to get more organized with my training and I am looking for how to build your own active recovery schedule that fits with a five day lifting split. I am not sure how much activity is too much on my off days. I want to stay moving but I also need to make sure I am getting enough rest for my central nervous system.

I am thinking about including one day of light cardio and one day of focused mobility and stretching. I am in the US and I want to build a long term plan that helps me stay healthy and consistently progressing. I find that I often overdo it on my rest days because I hate being inactive.

What does your weekly schedule look like? How do you balance your hard training with your recovery work? I am looking for some examples of how other people structure their weeks. I would love to hear your advice on how to create a sustainable and effective recovery plan for a serious athlete!
