On average, how long do your workouts last each day?
I only workout 4 times a week (M,T,Th,F) in the mornings. Wednesday and Sunday are recovery days. Saturday is yard work. I do some treadmill running just before (20 minutes on lower body days and 30 minutes on upper body days), after which about 1 hour of weights. In the morning, the gym is relatively empty, so I don't wait around. I often interweave exercises (not quite circuit training) so I don't need much rest time in between sets.
Depends on what I'm trying to get accomplished and/or if it's a two-fer day for me. For example, I lifted at 3 this morning (legs, a little small group work) and that took 1 1/2. I'll go back tonight for 30-40 minutes to knock out cardio, which I like to keep short and intense, and finish up any small group items I may feel I missed. On Thursdays I only ever work out in the morning. I'm scheduled to do chest, so that will take around an hour.
During the school semester about an hour. Now I'm able to do 1.5 to 2 hours max. Depends if doing longer cardio also. I don't workout 7 days a week. At least not full workouts. Typically 5 days of real workout and anything else would be more of active rest type days.
It is usually three days a week weights for about 20 minutes (4 exercises, 15 reps each, 3 circuits - alternating musle groups and no rest time) then my version of hot yoga for about 15 minutes. Last week was to stressful so tomorrow is first day back. I try to do a lot of walking and stretching on my off days.
Never, ever more than an hour and usually 20-30 minutes not counting the five minutes of warm up. I belong to a CrossFit-like gym, so that's plenty.

Posted by Aeonia25850I hate to say it, but this does happen. Especially around new years!
Posted by Aeonia25850Just for a laugh! Right now I'm pushing these legs of mine hard with the weights and on the bike and am seeing good results.

Posted by SilviaParkI had my first triathlon in Sunday, an indoor USATri60. Lots of room for improvement, but I'm just a beginner swimmer, and haven't taken my bike on the road yet :)
