Do I need to workout everyday?

The frequency of your workouts depends on several factors, including your fitness goals, current health and fitness levels, and the type of exercise you enjoy. While daily exercise can be beneficial, it is important to consider the type of exercise you are doing.

The World Health Organization recommends at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week for adults. Working out every day may help with weight management and cardiovascular health, but it is important to pay attention to exercise intensity. Excessive high-intensity exercise without adequate rest and recovery can increase your risk of injuries and burnout. It could also reduce muscle gain as it doesn’t give your muscles time to recover and grow. Consider adding active recovery days to your workout schedule. Swimming, walking or yoga are all great options.

If you’re new to exercise, it is important to build your fitness level up before increasing the frequency and intensity of your workouts.
