Dr. eval: The best way to know is to be medically cleared by your physician. People who elect to work out every day may switch aerobics with lifting. They plan exercise that works different parts of the body on different days. The muscle needs time to heal, so it is good to mix it up.

Yes: 3-4 times/per week is all you need. Muscles need to recover. If you workout daily you should do lighter workouts 3 days.
