    Daily. I workout at home and am following a program that’s 30 minutes a day. 2 of those days are active recovery days (Pilates and Yoga) and the rest are a mix of cardio and strength training. I also run 3x a week.

    When I'm training for a big triathlon I usually train five days a week with one day of rest. In the off season I like to lift in the gym three days a week. Nothing big just circuits and machines.

    4-5x/week. 15-33 minutes of cardio, followed by ~60-80 minutes of lifting (6-8 lifts, 3-5 sets, 6-15 reps depending on the lift/where I'm at).

    My goal is to be active everyday. I like to do strength training twice per week, but various injuries and issues make that less than I'd like. I also garden, walk, hike, practice yoga, etc.

    ^^^i got tired just looking at that.

    May have been overkill for what the OP was asking :-)

    I appreciated it.

    4 days per week
    2 days 'heavy' for me weights about 30 sets followed by 20 ish mins steady state cardio
    Other 2 days lighter weights (8-10 rep range) followed by higher intensity cardio

    3x per week strength training with a trainer some cardio included but not the main focus. 2x per week yoga class.
  • 5 days a week lifting. 1 to 2 step aerobics classes a week. I’m pretty sedentary outside the gym.

    weight training at least three days a week, I just cycle through the body parts whatever days I have the time. I do not specifically schedule workouts.
    Cardio is much the same. I try to run at least once a week, but I throw in elliptical, walking, cycling, where possible.

    Weights 3 days out of every 4 (push pull legs rest). Light cardio rest day and I walk at least 30 mins everyday
