How long is your gym work out?

firef1y72

Depends what I'm doing.

A cardio blast workout takes me around 30mins, but that would be a really high intensity interval workout. I only do these when I don't have PT though (30-60min 5x week)

A strength training session generally takes me around 2 hours 3x a week, that's warm up, heavy lifting (with all the rest between sets that involves), accessory work, cool down and 15min stretching.

I also go to classes and I run.

I spend 1hr to 1.5hr in the gym 4 or 5 days per week currently. Used to be around 45 mins but now I am ending my lifting with 10 mins of HIIT and a bit of core work plus a really good stretch. I find it hard to do this all in under an hour!

I have a goal of an hour a day. I want to see how long of a streak I can have.

Two days a week I lift weights.

Two or three days a week I cycle. Often that is longer than an hour. I will ride 25-30 miles. I am working up to a 54 mile ride. That's this year's goal. Next year I want to do a two day 110 mile camping trip and work up to a 240 mile ride to my brother's house.

Two or three days a week I slow jog.

In the winter I will swim laps and snowshoe.

My mindset is to do active hobbies that I love.

Typically 40 minutes to an hour.

I used to and am planning (starting today) hitting up the gym (strength training) 3x a week for an hour and home workouts (cardio) 3x a week alternating (half hour to an hour) until I figure out what my body, goals, etc, wants more/less of, sometimes I feel like I can do more so I make a decision on the spot with what I feel like I want to do

1 hour minimum 6 days a week. 2 hour runs here and there.

I lift 3x/week for 45 minutes before work. I live in a town where I can bike/walk everywhere and that has a lot of trails so the majority of my exercise is outside of the gym.

In the gym 3 or 4 times a week. Weight train for 45 mins and Cybex Arc trainer ( like an eliptical) for 40 minutes. Alternate a slow speed and intense speed every 5 minutes.

Congratulations on establishing a workout program!

Well I'm on cuckoo disability , not working, so I go 7 days week for 3 hrs or so. 2hrs cardio, switch between bike and treadmill, and I do 1hr or so resistance machines, and 20 min cores excercises.

As one mentioned above, if I fail on cardio hours, I make up for difference next 1-2 days.

2 hour full body workout. 30 minute cardio and 1hr 30 minute weights.

I lift pretty much daily focusing on one body part a day and spending about 30-45 minutes doing it. I walk everyday averaging about 13,000 steps between work and just doing it on my own.

Depends on the program I feel like following (but try to avoid programs that are more than 5 days a week).

Currently 3 days a week weightlifting. Workout takes me only about 40 minutes. I do go to a quiet gym that it's rare that I have to wait for any equipment, though. Might be longer if I went to a busier big box type gym.

5 times a week @ 2 hours (1 hr weights, 1 hour cardio)

Depends on the season. Spring/summer will have me walking 2 hours (7 miles) at least 4 times a week. This cuts into my (home) gym routine by half, easy. Fall/winter will have me doing free weights app. 1 hour four times a week.
