How Often Should I Workout And For How Long?
This is a question I get asked quite a lot, what frequency and how long should I be training? The right number of sessions per week differs from individual to individual and largely depends on many factors relating to your body and your training. For instance, beginners will, of course, train less often than more advanced trainers.
Another factor concerns the type of workouts you do. Workouts mainly consisting of cardiovascular training to improve your endurance like cycling, swimming, walking, jogging, indoor rowing and indoor cross-training have to be seen differently than strength training with your own body weight or free weights for the purpose of building muscle. All these factors are important and have to be considered before giving any reasonable training suggestions.
Beginners as well as more advanced athletes will see the biggest benefits if they work out three to four times a week for an hour per session. The main thing is that you schedule a rest day between the different sessions. You should take at least one day off after two consecutive days of strength training.
