A member asked:
Can you let me know how many time per week should i workout?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
3-5x: Consistency in a workout routine is important but rest is also important. As people age, the muscles, tendons, and ligaments require rest to repair themselves. 3-5x per week allows for this.
