How much time should i workout for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very variable: If you're talking aerobic activity - I’d start with 3x a week for twenty minutes. I’d gradually add more days if you’re not sore on the in between days to get up to 5 days a week. If you’re talking weights, I’d do it every other day allowing time for muscle recovery.

Been working out at gym- resistance training & weights, 4x a week 2hrs each time. Moderate intensity. By how much does this raise my bmr post workout?
Is it really true that it is better to exercise at a lower intensity for fat burning? I heard if you exercise at 60-70 percent intensity for a longer time this is best. Otherwise your body doesnt use your fat stores to fuel the workout.
