How many times do you workout in a week?


Many people when they start working out can barley do it 2 times a week. Although I guarantee you will feel so good after a workout you will start doing one 7 times a week. This is a very common problem when people do not know how many times in a week to workout.

I usually workout 5 times a week because I have been lifting for a long time. Although people think the more you workout the bigger you get, this is not the case. The body needs time to recover in between workouts these rests can actually cause a faster increase for muscle building.

Its best to workout the same muscle two days after you worked it out before. Example: If you worked out your chest on Monday work it out on Wednesday.

So remember in a week its best to only workout 4-5 days a week. Also don’t take this rest rule to extremes and only workout one day in a week, I can guarantee that’s more rest then you need.

I would be interested to hear how many times in a week you guys workout please leave a comment and let me know.
