A member asked:
I am in my 30s, and i run up hills and use the stairmaster every other day. in addition to this exercise, should i do lower body weight training, if so which days? weight training is recommended for health, but not everyday so the muscles recover.

Weight training: Weight training twice a week with lighter cardio workouts on those days as your schedule and time permits.
