1 workout a day vs several a day benefits

@fitnessask- What have you decided for yourself?

@fitnessask Cycling and swimming are such exercises that are mothing less than any full strength training. But it's quite impossible to go for a riding or swimming session in a busy corporate life. Correct? But a portable recumbent bike can fulfill this need. Pedaling session with a recumbent bike once everyday can be the best alternative to hitting out a gym daily.

Doing a full workout, like circuit training gives the added benefit of some cardio. But if you feel that your body can only handle one exercise per day, just do that. ANY exercise is a bonus. Add chair yoga for excellent stretching.

I think that the road I took has proved successful. Started at 60.. now 78. I train all muscle groups to exhaustion each week. When younger ran a lot. I still do the strength part but do Aerobics and yoga (for balance and flexibility) instead of running 4 to 5 half marathons a year. Sounds to be a lot. But at 78 I can still do 25 to 35 pushups ( depending how much working out I have already done. I have anxiety in check with out pills, diabetes in range, heart and lung issues where my cardiologist likes and can hike where ever I plan without worry of being hurt. But the outdoor life is and has been my goal so it works. Most don’t have that a goal . It might be they want to look good. But on working out do all body areas once each week with some cardio and build up slow is my opinion for those wanting to improve.

For me, less is more.
In other words, whenever I work out hard I become ill, I think due to EBV.
I can only make progress by doing a little bit each day.

Shadow boxing is an excellent work-out, and can be done in your hotel room.
