Is there anyway to stop needing recovery days at the gym? I usually do 2 hours of cardio and weight training every other day. I want to be able to do it 5 times a week but everytime I try, I wind up being so sore that I can't get up by thursday.

No.
Go to /fit/ so they can also tell you no.

Recovery days are important. If you want to go to the gym 5 times a week, reduce how much time you spend doing your training, or train specific parts of your body (arms, legs) on one day, then the other part the next day. Rinse and repeat.

All it takes is time. Don't worry about it now.

No, they're important. The way you get stronger is essentially tearing the muscle, and when it heals it comes back stronger. You need to give it time to heal and build up or you risk injury.
