I workout so I can have kfc. There’s been many a time I have gone to the gym, then kfc on the way home for my stacker full of protein
It's like going out for a drink.
I have one drink so I have an excuse for a kebab.My workout is carrying the bargain bucket to the table then disposing of it in the nearest waste receptical.
Need an option for zero.
dad bod Vs Beach Bod.
Oddly specific poll options.
I would say 4-5 times a week.

I walk 5 times a week to get my $5 AIA Vitality credit :)
I go during the week for my lunch break.
Monday - Arms and Shoulders
Tuesday - Walk/Run outside
Wednesday - Leg Day/Core
Thursday - Walk/Run outside
Friday - Chest/Back
try for #3. full body everytime, sometimes recovery needs an extra day. have a home gym with all the useful equipment.
5x5 generally this order:
squat
bench
ohp and rows
dealiftpullups, dips and hanging leg raises but dont have access atm.
gym cost $100 for 70kegs but about to upgrade to another 100kegs, assualt rack, bench for less than a k.
7 days a year
Not training currently due to injury and some other family stuff taking priority but when I do it's 5 days. You need rest days.
If you're looking to put on muscle then look at a strength program like Starting Strength. It'll give you a good guide, especially for a beginner. If your gym has people that actually know what they're doing pay for one to check your form at the start and every now and then as you progress as it's easy to pick up bad habits chasing numbers.
Mine is a bit different.
Monday - Morning - Crossfit & Calisthenics - Afternoon Jogging
Tuesday - Morning - Weight Training - Afternoon Jogging
Wednesday - Morning - Crossfit & Calisthenics - Afternoon - Cricket Practice or Jogging
Thursday - Morning - Weight Training - Afternoon - Jogging
Friday - Morning - Crossfit & Calisthenics - Afternoon - Eat & Drink Beer
Saturday - Morning - Parkrun or Recover - Afternoon Cricket Matches - Eat & Drink Beer in Winter time
Sunday - Morning - Olympic Lifting - Afternoon - Eat & Drink BeerFrom experience, 4 times a week is enough to achieve pretty much any goal you have. You don't need to train every day, but I enjoy it and I feel less bad about my poor eating and drinking habits! :)
Brian Alsruhe has some good videos on linear progression which is sure to help you put on mass.
It was a work out just using your poll! A flawed poll will give flawed results hey
Yep, I put the polar opposite of how much I work out simply because there wasn't an option for 'none'
4-5 days a week, ~1 hour per day, mix of cardio and weights
Not at a gym. Cycling 6-7 days a week, about 350km per week at the moment. Feel amazing and get to eat as much as I want haha
work out? like work outside? sounds great, ill have to ask work for a laptop first
really though, no exercise other than walking around more and an easy 20min electric bike ride to work every day. i guess thats light cardio.
but have lost similar weight and have kept it off for 18 months completely through diet and that light cardio.
and also had a few health checks in that time. before weight loss things weren't looking great, now I'm doing pretty great.keeping the weight off just by diet would do plenty, and its fairly easy to adjust now that youre already there
1 day on 2 days off.
At least. Sometimes 4 days off I feel old beyond my years, recovery is slow.
Cardio-Callisthenics-Rest Day-Cardio-Callisthenics-Two Rest Days, used to use weights with the same routine for a few years but didn't like the results of weights because I'm not in it for mass (which is unattractive), would rather be lean.
on Mondays….starting next week :)
Initially I did 3 days a week with full body workout. now trying to progress further. doing 4 days a week - M, T, T, F. mixing upper/lower/push/pull.
no cardio at all.
OP pls put 0 so the slobs can win your poll !
Just weights, 5 days a week. Only light cardio sort of whenever. Pretty poor routine, but cardio require effort ya know?

Mon-Fri GUNS, GUNS, GUNS!!!!
There. Done.
Day 1: Chest, Back, Shoulders, Legs, Biceps, Triceps
Day 2: Legs, Triceps, Biceps, Chest, Back, Shoulder
Day 3: Shoulders, Back, Chest, Legs, Triceps, BicepsLots of running , bike riding with the family, swimming, SUP and carrying my sleeping kids from couch, up the stairs to their bedrooms. I rarely do power yoga now and have completely given up on MMA, boxing and soccer since my 3rd child was born.
Depending on my level of motivation anywhere between 5-10 workouts per week.
If you’re looking to gain muscle mass you need weights and a caloric surplus with your food. It’s near impossible to gain muscle in a deficit,
If you’re new to working out you should gain the first bit quickly, then as your body becomes used to working out the gains will slow down. You’ll need to train progressive loading to keep getting muscle.
Reps are 1-6 per set for strength (heavy weights) 6-12 reps for hypertrophy (size) 15+ reps for endurance. I mix all 3 into my week. Plus some cardio to keep my heart healthy, and a bootcamp class or two to push myself, and usually a yoga class.
Good luck, there’s lots of great websites out thereOnce or twice a week - just cardio. I really don't care about having a beach body. If you're working out purely for the health benefits, stick to cardio. Weights is an easy way to get injured and puts a lot of pressure on your body over time. Only do lifting if you have specific muscle or body goals.
Need an option for KFC.
