Working Out 6- 7 days a week

I do weights and cardio 3 days a week. With all the walking that I do I find that sufficient.

I work out 5-6 days a week with at home dvds. I've lost quite a bit of the weight I've gained from my pregnancy.

I run 4-5 miles on the treadmill at my hospital's fitness center each day before work. I work M-F. I'm pushing 50 and find that I have a lot more energy and a much better day when I exercise!

Early mid 20's here. I'm in nursing school and I work full time. I work out 5 days a week and it makes me have MORE energy. Prior to nursing school I had all my labs checked because of fatigue and exhaustion and everything checked out as normal. So I starting working out. It really did give me more energy and now my legs don't hurt after a 12 hour shift!

I just started nursing school in January and I'm working full time and try to workout 4-5 times a week! It makes all the difference in the world or you can even try cutting out excess sugar in your diet. After cutting unnecessary sugar in my diet I felt such a big difference! Good luck 💪

I'm doing prenursing and I try to work out 4 days a week but than be hard with work and all haha but I find I am more tired on the days I work out lol

That's my big thing. All my labs checked out fine, blood pressure is excellent, so are my other vitals. But I'm just always exhausted and my legs throb after a 12 hour shift and sometimes look a bit edematous. With all that I want to do with my life, I feel like I need more energy to accomplish it and feel good. I think I'm way too young to be complaining of exhaustion like this. lol

Youtube has some great exercise videos. It gives you a chance to try different things like Zumba, yoga, pilates, and dance in the comfort of your own home. When I get out of work I'm usually too worn out to head back out to a gym. I usually workout 3-5 days per week, longer in duration in the summer.

I work straight weekends 12hrs, so I work out mon-wed. Thursday is my prep day for work. I just cannot bring myself to workout after a 13hr work day.

Using a treadmill or jogging daily is good for you. But don't try and lift weights 6-7 days a week. You need to give your muscles time to rest and repair between work outs. Moderate cardio every day, and lifting 3 days a week (like M-W-F) will bring good results.

When you build muscle is when your tissues repair the "damage" from working out. Rest is an essential part of fitness. 6-7 days a week is too much. Go for 5. Two on, one off, three on, one off is ideal.

Not trying to disagree with the last two post…very close to being correct.

As a competitive bodybuilder for ten years..(I am 38) 6 days of weight training is fine. It allows for every muscle group to be targeted each one of those days. And 30-45 minutes of cardio everyday is good for you.

Now if you do not supply your body with the nutrients it needs to repair and rebuild, then yes you can regress your body, rather than strengthen and build, by working out everyday. If your diet is not filled with the correct macro and micro nutrients you will feel less than you best either way.

I could go much further in detail, but I and many friends in the physique industry follow the idea that diet is key to fitness. And there is no such thing as over-training, just under eating (nutrient deficit).
