Just finished 3 month of circuits, 1 day rest a week, now split my routine between 2 days, and rotating them, still one day a week full rest. Will be going back to circuits in a few month time.
Never. I used to work out, and then I quit. And I don't feel any different, although I look a bit different since I'm not muscular like I used to be. Maybe it's just the pandemic and not leaving my property like I used to.
I do weight-bearing exercises like plank and pushups four times a week, and use my Fitness Boxing game for Nintendo Switch almost daily.
I have found solace through jogging... Doesn't it sound bizarre? I wouldn't have picked myself for a 'jogger' in a million years. But after gyms closed down, I started doing exercise differently... (Even a little before they closed down; I left pre-emptively...) I was doing 1,200 or so jumping jacks in my backyard for awhile, but eventually I ended up doing some jogging at the park down the street - it has a track! It was a pain in the ass at first. I had to figure out how fast to do it, and wasn't initially very comfortable with my pace at all... So, I went really slow for a long time. Another issue with this is my meds (pretty sure it's because of my meds/went to doctor's twice or something, but they say it might be vertigo... ). Believe it or not, I get motion sick if I jog for too long! OMG... It's sooo annoying. Literally vomiting-sick from jogging if I go for, say 2 miles instead of 1. (1 mile is 1.6 KM) I was trying to jog 2 miles twice daily, but I was getting sick sometimes. I couldn't figure it out, and stopped jogging for a bit. Then I made decision. I would jog 1 mile (the track is 3 laps to a mile; which for some reason makes it easier psychologically) instead of two, twice a day and just be satisfied with the end-result. Then, I began working and dropped down to 1 mile once daily. That's not enoguh... Recently, I resolved to jog after work as well as before. That's twice. And it feels good! That's what I've been doing for the last week. On weekends, sometimes I go to the park and jog 4 times per day! 4 miles is pretty good, and I even lose a little weight.
Ive just increased it to 7 now . Got more of an appetite now and a target before the pubs reopen from lockdown
I don't think your muscles would like a seven day training, especially if it's cardio. I always give myself a day off and it's almost always Monday. Don't know why I hate Mondays. I also enjoy healthy lifestyle but I have a cheat day for that, too. They say it is supposed to be a habit, but come on. Pizza and beer, or pasta and wine, strawberries and chocolate... got to go, I am hungry now
I don't really work out. I have injuries that prevent running and working with weights. I take long fast walks every day, do 50 pushups and abdominal exercises three times a week. That seems to keep me in shape for an old man.
