How many times a week do you workout? How long are your workouts? How many breaks a year do you take?

I hit the gym three times a week – cardio, weights, cardio, and a bit of swimming. Sometimes it's a bit of a struggle, but I'm getting into the groove.

I am 68 and my wife is 62 we both hit the gym 3 days a week and are there for 1 hour or so. Never take breaks. Both of us have been lifting since our teens.

i train like i always have - but i am not a role model - long cycles and hard heavy training - you would think at 59 i would learn

Ya that's a bitch no doubt and I just had surgery 2 weeks ago to fix it (tore it in gym accident) and now in a godawful heavy boot. Hopefully with the help of BPC/TB I can heal this quicker.

From most answers to this thread I realize that I overtrained for years.
I joined a new gym a year ago and I changed the way I train. I do what they call a biocircuit on the latest Technogym machines 3 times a week and the other days I do pilates or yoga.
Being old sucks.

bio what techno huh? LOL

I hear ya...and I can't wait to get back in the gym, considering I'm recovering from a torn Achilles which is a bitch to heal.

I tore my left bicep in Oct and was just beginning to dial it in again and BAM, did the right so I am gonna have to wait a bit.
