    Most of the time I do 2 workouts a day-it depends on what's going on for the day but I like starting my day working out and then ending it working out so I can de-stress. If it's something you want to try, then try. Your body will tell you if you can or can't

    I don't. I did before, and it i so easy to get burned out from it.

    I would more often if I had the time, but right now on Mondays I cycle in the morning and do Pilates Reformer in the evening.

    I do it every so often..Not every day...Mostly if I don't get my full 30mins in the morning, I'll do more in the evening. Or if I overeat, I'll do 10-15 mins to help offset.

    Not too often, I usually only work out again if I feel like crap by evening time.
  • Today I walked 4 miles, did a Firm aerobic cardio and did another Firm exercise workout tonight. I think the Firm workouts are toning me more effectively than walking. I am also trying to jog as I slowly get used to it.

    In the summer, when I'm off work, I take two ballet classes - one in the morning and one in the evening - and often have a gym workout between (using muscles not worked in class, doing straight cardio and/or weights).

    I often work out more than once a day, sometimes up to 3 times a day. A typical day for me would be a 5 mile run in the morning followed by a kickboxing class and then a 90 minute Hot Yoga class in the evening. I do make sure to take rest days and crosstraining days that are no/low impact though. Try it out and see how you feel. It might work for you, it might not.

    Yes, sometimes three times! I have to be mindful to not overdo it, though. I figure that hitting the cardio hard helps me to burn the calories that I need to EAT, yet still lose weight! GARBAGE IN, GARBAGE OUT! This **** is simple.

    Is it recommended? Any feedback?

    Im considering joining the Y in the fall, and I decided even though I'm not a morning person, I really like doing my own thing alone in the mornings. Come the winter time I wont be walking outside any longer so I think I may join a gym.

    Thing is, I'll want to take the kids to some evening classes as well after work, so while I'm there I may want to fit something in at night l ... (you know, since I'm there anyways)

    Is this overkill? I'd only do it as long as I enjoy it over course, I dont want to go all full speed ahead and then burn out or not enjoy it any longer...


    apparently I need to slow down and proof read before posting a question ... thanks for your feedback!!

    I do a P90X workout once a day 6x/week and will walk my boys in their double stroller @ 5x/week. Sometimes I do a little more, but when I feel burned out, I back off. I do things I enjoy to stay active, and that's the most important thing, I think.

    I work out twice every day, sometimes 3 times a day. Every morning I walk 2-3 miles, every evening I walk 5 miles. On gym days I'll also walk 1 mile on the treadmill then lift weights for 40-45 minutes.

    I workout twice a day too. As long as I'm still feeling good, why not? :)
