—————————————————————————————————————————

People ask us all the time, “how often should you work out to see results?” The truth is that the answer is not simple. We wish we could tell you how many days to workout a week with an exact number like 3 or 4. However, the optimal training frequency depends on your goals and your schedule. Workout types and workout frequency for weight loss, muscle building, and strength training will all be different.

In this video, we will explain the difference between daily movement and formal workouts. We’ll emphasize how important it is to discover the kind of exercises you enjoy! We’ll discuss rest and recovery from different types of exercise. When it comes down to the question of how often to workout, the most important thing is to create a workout schedule that works for you, with exercises that you enjoy! If you can establish something that works for you, you will be able to be consistent. Consistency leads to long-term results!

Hello Dr. A: Great video and explanation regarding the number of exercise days. In Jan 2021, at 71 years old I took an 8 week class called ' Get fit for Surgery' in order to prepare for total knee replacement. Then I joined an LA Fitness class titled Senior Fitness; then moved up to LA Fitness class titled, Body Works plus Abs, then added LA Fitness class titled, Power Circuit. I'm currently 72 years old and doing 3 days Body Works class and one day Power Circuit. I'm on the "eat less" diet and lost 26 pounds in 7 months; my Blood Pressure is 116/68 and my ankles don't get swollen any more. My legs are stronger now and I'm ready for knee replacment in January 2022. ;-) Gene O'Neill, Winter Park, FL

on building momentum... for many people consistency = frequency. by that I mean if you only do something a few times a week then its too easy to get off track whereas if you are doing something every day you can get into the routine more easily. to accomplish this on a tight schedule reduce the time allocation to each workout. 15 minutes a day of strength training is something almost everyone can do. once you are in the habit of finding some small amount of time daily then increasing the time on some of those days gets much easier.

Lost 70lbs this year after completing a MS a year ago today. Generally getting much better sleep now (Yes, I know. I'm writing this at 2 AM).

Drink water and light exercise bike or outside walk first thing every morning. More walking in summer, more exercise with the time change. Then I worry about the other trainings.

Another habit I've been able to maintain really well this year is not drinking a huge amount of calories everyday (milk, juice, creamer, etc) swapping it out with water, ice tea, and coffee.

Pizza is still my downfall....

Since lockdown ended here two months ago, I seem to have got myself into a habit of working out 7 days a week. First day chest, second day back, third day shoulders, forth day legs, and then start off again. A session generally lasts for around 2.5 hours, and I do a fairly hard workout with mainly weights and a bit of cardio. Am eating and sleeping well. Always keen to get to the gym and always feel good after my time there. There is a social element in this as well - a number of us, both men and women, all in our late 60s and early 70s (I am 71) greet each other and sometimes have a brief chat. It certainly beats sitting at home alone watching daytime television. Was doing the same prior to lockdown as well. I agree with gonzo 1118 below - its hard but I enjoy it.

I like

I like your program, good information! 😊

[sacriste]

You have to try different programs and see what works for you in terms of results, consistency and fun. For me now, 56 yo, it's training resistance really hard 3x a week, full body. I have a very physical workday 1-2x a week and lately I have added a long jogging session on the one 2 days rest from resistance. Feeling and looking great (says my wife hah.) I added: I rarely miss a workout day, maybe two or three days a year. If I ever miss one, I move it to other free day of the week. And during rest day I do detailing and restoration moves in dead times of the day: grip, calves, stretches, therapeutic moves, etc.

[jameswoodall]

SYep, learned a ton. Being consistent is all important. And you did brings this out in several different6 ways. Great!!

[artistaprimus]

Im retired so I work out 4 times a week. Weight training with boxing cardio every time. I rarely miss a workout. I just don't feel like it some days, but I force myself.

[carnivoreRon]

I'm 70 and I usually do crossfit in the morning. I go to another gym and use machines to workout my shoulders and torso. I do this 3-5 times a week. I eat carnivore fast for at least 48 hours a week.

[herbbowler]

I work out with varied intensity about 3 or 4 times a day with 1 or 2 rest days a week.
I never used heavy weight training on any muscle group more than twice a week.
Some of my exercise is 30 reps per session and as high as 2000 or more reps per day.
I am 74 and i do what my body feels comfortable with.
Works great for me.

[ponokunishima]

I personally enjoy doing the PPL (Push/Pull/Legs) method 5-6 times a week or the Upper/Lower Body Split 4-5 times a week.

[suicycomotherfucker]

The routine is the hardest thing for sure

[boostbodymetabolism]

Awesome thanks! The more I watch your videos, the faster I get results!

30 Min. in the PM. the same for resistance training. Diabeties drove me back to the gym. Oct 2020 A1c 10.6 today

[joselitoaquino]

Very Informative and helpful videos i lost 30lbs following Intermittent fasting and 3 times a week fasted exercise Thank you FIT FATHER PROJECT You are Truly Inspirational Motivational..

[onenessseeker]

workout every time you feel strong is the best way. It don't matter if you only worked out once a week some weeks and 4 times a week other weeks. Even taking a whole week off is good for ya trust me.

[MrCohernandez]

Great video, as always Mr. Balduzzi. Thanks

[michaelspencer]

I have learned that it all depends on the individual. That has to do with everything in life. No two people are the same. Therefore need different plans. You can normally do this by body type. And I don't mean what you look like with your clothes on.

[shameermulji]

You mentioned that the first thing when you get up is rehydrate with some high quality water. How would you define high quality water?

[alltimechiller]

I'm 46, 5"8 and weigh only 54 kgs. I've very thin bones and I'm super skinny. I've always been laughed at all my life. Clothes don't fit me. But I still have belly. How can I grow bigger without lifting heavy weights? Everyone says that I need to lift heavy in order to build muscle. What's your take on that?
