Are daily workouts effective? What happens to your body when you exercise over and over

The usual split training programs are usually 2-3 classes per week, that is, training every other day with one day off - on Sunday. This gave rise to a number of stereotypical rules that it is impossible and supposedly harmful to practice every day. There is some truth in these words, but it is so insignificant that without understanding the basic principle of building training schemes, this is a drop in the ocean.

Load volume (tonnage)

Strength training creates a certain load factor. You lift a certain weight a certain number of times. For example, 4 sets of bench presses of 60 kg in 10 repetitions is 4x10x60 = 2480 kg. We calculated the tonnage of one typical exercise.

Muscles progress not from the barbell you lift, but from the total tonnage, and not in one workout, but in a small microcycle, they can last one week. That is, if you lift / pull N-tonnage in a week, then your muscles will grow and adapt to the load. If you're not getting the volume you need, you'll be treading water.

Number of workouts

No matter 1, 2 or 6 workouts per week, because key role plays the total weekly volume. Let's say the tonnage of your training was usually 250 tons. You worked out 3 times a week, that is, on average, each workout was equal to 83-84 tons.

Now, you want to exercise 5 times a week instead of 3. Common Mistake – copy training days without changing their tonnage and volume. What does a beginner do who wants to accelerate muscle growth? He increases the tonnage per week by adding identical workouts.

Now, instead of 250 tons per week, you will get 5x84=420 tons, which is more than 50% more than the previous tonnage. Recall that with a volume of 250 tons per week, you have progressed well, but what will happen with a 50% increase in load? You will fall into overtraining and your results will be only a dream and lost motivation.

How to train every day?

If you want to train more often, you need to distribute the usual volume evenly throughout the week, dividing the tonnage by the number of workouts. In our example, if we want to visit the fitness center five times a week, we need to divide 250 tons into 5 workouts, that is, each should be 50 tons, no more and no less. This preservation of the total volume of the load will allow you to train more often without overtraining and discomfort. You won't feel a significant difference.

How often should you exercise?

For fitness enthusiasts, 2-3 times a week is enough. Of course, you can divide the volume into 4-6 workouts and get a similar result. But is the game worth the candle?

Pros and cons of daily exercise

Pros:

  • Less time is needed, as the volume of training is less;
  • Less load on nervous system every day, which is important if training to failure turns you into a vegetable for the rest of the day, and this interferes with work;
  • Less bounce, less stress in one day;

Minuses:

  • Need to visit the fitness center more often;
  • It is mentally difficult for many to keep themselves within 3-4 exercises per workout, everyone wants more;
  • Muscles hurt more often, as you load them more often, albeit with less volume.

Therefore, there is no correct answer to this question. We recommend that you choose the number of workouts that is most convenient for you. This will not affect the efficiency and speed of obtaining the coveted results, provided correct compilation training program. If the total tonnage of the load per week is adequate, then the number of training sessions will not affect you in any way, except from the point of view of psychological convenience.

Style Outcome

So, is it possible to do fitness every day? Whether at home, on the street, or in a fitness center? Answer: yes it is possible, but only taking into account the adequate tonnage of the load per week. Without this condition, you are likely to fall into and ruin the entire effectiveness of the training.

Should you exercise more often? - you decide. There are no significant and objective advantages of frequent training. Pay attention not to the frequency of training, but to recovery. We train for an hour or two, but the rest of the day we recover, and it is more logical to create ideal conditions for muscle growth during this long period. Eat more protein, sleep well, and choose a workout program that won't cause discomfort. Recall again - the amount of training, in fact, does not play a key role.

To everyone who decides to improve their lifestyle physical activity, the question arises: how often do you need to do fitness in a fitness club? How to optimally calculate your rate? The selection of the load depends on what type of activity you want to focus on: power training or cardio.

Aimed to create a beautiful muscular relief and gain muscle mass? Then your choice is power training, a minimum time needed to achieve the effect two hours a week. Needless to say, with a small temporary load, you should not expect quick changes, but who said that the number more important than quality? Visiting the fitness center rarely, but aptly, after a few months you will notice an improvement in both physical fitness and metabolism, and overall well-being.

How many times a week do anaerobic exercise? Even if you are an ardent fan of strength training, do not rush to disappear in the gym all day long. Maximum recommended weekly rate - 5-6 hours. In this situation, it is more useful and wiser not to go to the fitness center every day and load the muscles for an hour, but to attend workouts 3-4 times a week and elaborate desired groups muscles.

It is very important not to lose sight of the fact that loaded muscles need at least 24 hours to recover, and therefore daily pumping, for example, biceps, is not effective either in terms of saving time or in terms of saving energy.

A variation practiced by many is to dedicate these 3 training days to three areas of the body:

  1. shoulders, forearms and arms;
  2. press, back;
  3. buttocks, legs.

the situation is somewhat different. If you do not pursue the goal of losing weight, but are engaged in maintaining the tone of the body and the cardiovascular system, then the required minimum is equal to one hour a week. As in the case of strength training, in cardio, the intensity of the training is at the forefront. The ideal solution is to alternate between interval training and heart rate training.

Can you exercise every day?

Looking to lose fat and tone up problem areas? Are you ready to go to the fitness club at least every day, but you are not sure if it is safe for your health? Here is the answer: fitness can be practiced every day, provided there are no medical contraindications. However there is no point in spending two hours on the treadmill every day or in aerobics classes: the body needs to be accustomed to the load gradually, and with such a “brazen” approach, you risk running out of steam and getting fed up with fitness.

How often to exercise for the fastest results?

Most a quick and clear result will give you a system of 30-minute classes 5-6 days a week. It is advisable to change the type of load from time to time, try something new, because the body gets used to the load and the usefulness of training gradually decreases. Give yourself a day off or not, decide by listening to yourself. Examples of aerobic activity that you can take note of:

  • Swimming;
  • Bicycling;
  • Aerobics
    *Step aerobics;
    *Aqua aerobics;
    *Dance aerobics;
    * Jazz aerobics;
    * Pump aerobics.

To achieve the best effect, pay attention to each type of load, focusing on the predominant one.

Giving yourself more cardio or strength training depends on your primary goal. And yes remember: concentration solely on the aerobic sphere is fraught with the fact that not only the hated fat will burn, but also the necessary and useful muscles! And vice versa - the pursuit of muscle volumes can turn into clogged and sore muscles that need full stretching and movement.

So, the main principle of the effectiveness of sports is, of course, not in a daily visit to a fitness club, but in its regular visit. Regularity also depends on the mood with which you are engaged. Nothing compares to the feeling of lightness and those pleasant emotions that accompany a person who has found his niche in the vast world of fitness.

All those who finally decided to go in for sports or just wanted to work on their figure before the spring season are overcome by the same questions: where is it better to exercise, how often and for how long, what to focus on? Helpful Hints from Denis Semenikhin - a recognized specialist in fitness and healthy lifestyle life.

The minimum amount of time you need for strength (anaerobic) training is two hours per week. Surprisingly, this is true - even such a short time spent effectively will allow you to see changes in your figure in a few months, speed up your metabolism, and improve your well-being.

These two hours a week should be divided into 3-4 workouts, preferably four - 30 minutes each.

The minimum amount of time you need to devote to cardio training is one hour per week. This time, spent properly, will keep your cardiovascular system in shape. This hour is best broken down into three workouts of 20 minutes each. Two of them should take place at a constant pulse level, and one should be interval.

Let me remind you that for both strength and cardio training this is only the minimum amount of time. If you are already in shape, then this time will be enough for you to just maintain it. Progress will require more time.

The maximum time I recommend for strength training is 5 hours per week. For cardio, the maximum time is 4 hours per week. But in total it makes no sense to spend more than 6 hours. There is no such goal in changing the physical form (we do not take professional sports) that could not be achieved by properly training 4 times a week for an hour and a half.

That is, if you want to focus on the development of the cardiovascular system, you can do four hours of cardio per week and two hours of strength. If you decide to focus on building muscles or correcting proportions by building certain muscles, then 4-5 hours a week will be more than enough for you. Spend the remaining 1-2 hours maintaining a cardio form.

You may ask why you need to work out several times a week instead of working out, say, once, but for a long time. Everything is quite simple: a person’s muscles have time to fully recover in 72 hours, after which muscle atrophy or degradation begins, that is, if a trained muscle is not used in the same mode, it begins to atrophy to the level at which it is used regularly. For example, a person walks every day, carries the weight of his body, the leg muscles receive a certain stable load. But if, due to a fracture, the leg ended up in a cast for two months, then there is no load, and inactive muscles will inevitably atrophy. That is why, after the removal of the cast, the muscles will be much smaller and rehabilitation exercises will be required to again align the muscle mass of the right and left legs.

Now think about what your lifestyle has been like over the past few years. Are there any muscles in your body that require rehabilitation, as they have been inactive for a very long time, although they were not in a cast? To what extent did all the muscles that should be in shape receive at least a minimal load every 72 hours?

Exercise at home or in a fitness club

If we talk about classes in fitness clubs, then they have both pluses and minuses.

pros

  • A fitness club is, first of all, a sports spirit that unites those who work in it. The people around you have the same goals. You plunge into the atmosphere and make an energetic contribution to the common cause with your participation. This is not the case with home workouts. The absence of the necessary atmosphere at home is the main difficulty.
  • The club has everything necessary equipment. Of course, you can also put a small simulator at home, buy dumbbells, a ball and benches. But in the club there will always be more choice, and it will be more convenient to practice.
  • There is an exchange of information in the club. If something is not clear to you, it raises doubts, you can always discuss it, consult with the coaches. And if you yourself have already understood and tried a lot, then there will always be an opportunity to help someone, to support.
  • The club usually has a more prepared environment - ventilation, air conditioning, showers, steam rooms, locker rooms.

Minuses

  • You have to pay to join the club.
  • You need to get to the club, time is wasted on the road.
  • Not all clubs are located in environmentally friendly places. Every time I tried to choose clubs near parks or outside the city, but this is not always possible.
  • In the club they surround you different people, some of them may be unpleasant, behave strangely, etc.

If you decide to study at home, then also think about the pros and cons. At home, of course, it is more convenient to train if you have the right equipment. You can even exercise a little twice a day - in the morning and in the evening, which will perfectly speed up the metabolism. But there are also important disadvantages. The main one is the lack of a working atmosphere, a sports atmosphere. At home, we are used to feeling more relaxed, resting. It is for this reason that for most people who decide to work out at home, the purchased equipment gathers dust in the corner or turns into an expensive clothes hanger.

If you are still confident in yourself and your discipline, then try to at least find like-minded people who are ready to work with you. By creating such a mini-club, you will be able, like climbers in a bunch, to support each other in difficult moment, exchange information, do not allow each other to miss classes.

Differences between training men and women

From my many years of experience in fitness clubs and watching the success of thousands of different clients, I have become convinced that the reasons for success in training men and women do not have a significant difference. At the level of physiology, of course, there are a number of well-known differences, but this does not affect the principles that are applied in training. Neither in the speed of muscle recovery, nor in performance, nor in the metabolic processes and the laws governing them, between male and female body there are no fundamental differences.

I will say more, in practice, I have repeatedly seen that women in fitness are often more disciplined. This results in great results. It is constancy and discipline that bear fruit in this matter.

However, we must remember that women should be more attentive than men to listen to their well-being and sometimes feel sorry for themselves. But this should not be an obstacle to progress. Study yourself.

Denis Semenikhin

I go jogging, try to walk a lot and work out on the simulators a couple of times a week. That's enough for me to keep in great shape.

I didn’t master at home, now I go to the gym

I tried to work out at home, you endure for two days, and then you give up everything, but in the gyms you have to work out, once you come, you won’t shirk.

Does anyone know if aerobic training can be considered a commute to and from work? Speed ​​approximately 6 km/h, distance - 3.2 km one way. I began to exercise regularly at home, in clubs I started and quit a hundred times. I like one thing - you don’t need to catch up with anyone or wait, or measure your achievements, you can adapt to your condition on a particular day or flexibly change your training schedule. I do every other day, it turns out 3 - 4 hours a week. Well, even on foot to work.

switched to home workouts. Not regular, but there are workouts.

Comment on the article "Work out at home or in a fitness club (and how often)? Pros and cons"

From other activities - only music (a total of 2 hours a week plus very small homework), it also goes easily. At home, the child is frankly bored, she never knew how to occupy herself. There are always two free hours to play and listen to a book.

Discussion

Many thanks to everyone for the replies. I read everything very carefully, I do not have time to answer everyone, sorry.

Made a decision. While the daughter is set up for serious sports, she trains in prof. section, but with a different coach. The total is Monday and Tuesday for 2 hours, Wednesday and Thursday for 2 workouts (in total 4 hours a day), Friday and Saturday also for 2 hours. Only 16-17 hours a week.

Well, free, absolutely nothing busy time 2 hours a day on weekdays is a must. This mode seems to me all the same more or less physiological. Let's see what she will be able to do with such loads in a year, and then we will think about future prospects.

Wait cut, naturally fall off. If the child has time why look at others.
I have a 10 year old who loves to swim. There are two girlfriends, one is figure skating, the other is artistic gymnastics. So we parents came to the conclusion that for two years it will either fall off on its own, or the child will later become an athlete, a professional one :). Loads are such that sports are forced out of everything and I already see children's injuries more often :(.
Up to 10 years it was easier, now there are eternal competitions, trainings. In the last two, the culling also begins, many children cannot stand psychologically.
So if you like it and have time, I would continue.

In fitness clubs, no one has ever asked about a certificate and whether a child can swim at all. Moreover, if we talk about X-fit, no one even made comments if one of the adults swam without a cap. And such lovers of swimming with long hair no hats...

Discussion

Daughter 2 years old went on a subscription to a swimming group - 2 times a week. Since last year, we switched to the sports section in the same pool - 3 times a week. They taught me to swim by subscription, we have the same coaches as the sports groups. Sports group is more efficient, the load is greater. Daughter loves it. We have the same pool, so I can’t say where it’s cleaner. Our only water is not as warm as in the neighboring pools, but the main explanation is the sports school, but the children do not complain.

We are at the fitness club. Clean, safe, great coaches, convenient time. But expensive.
I'm afraid of sports schools, because. there, firstly, unsanitary conditions, tk. they take different children and are poorly funded, and also at a sports school, since they take it for free, they require discipline and results, as well as inconvenient class times, that is, this is an option for complete dedication for those who choose sports as a profession and who have no other things to do.

How many times a week do you work out and how long is one session? How many people are in the group? How much do you pay? Very interesting, please share. I want to understand whether we have serious classes or are we throwing money away?

Discussion

Thank you all very much!
The picture is more or less clear.
We have 2 times an hour x 700 rubles lesson in a group of 4 people. We go for general development, on the professional level we do not claim. Those. the money is normal and the number of classes too.

2 times a week - 1700 rubles per month.
4 times a week - 3400 rubles per month.
individual is more expensive.
I don’t know how many people in a group, but there are usually about 5 people in a lesson.

summer camp trips, trips to competitions and other delights are for those who are older.
there are all sorts of cups, i.e. this is a pretty solid middle section, with a good start for those who think big.
but we go just for general development

I only got results in my second year. and that's just because I took personal trainer once a week and figured out what's what. so here- most we are doing wrong.

Fitness and sports, group classes in fitness centers and with an instructor, fitness equipment, swimming pool. Who knows how much weight should really go per workout? When I first started walking, the doctor at the fitness club told me not to weigh myself after training, and I didn’t weigh myself.

Discussion

It can take me up to a kilogram if, even after training, I take a steam bath and don’t drink water.

Normally, I myself was in shock for the first time, weighing myself before and after training. It went from 700 gr to 1.200! On the total weight in the mornings at home, this, alas, did not affect globally ...

Fitness and sports, group classes in fitness centers and with an instructor, fitness equipment, swimming pool. I need volume, of course.

For the first time, I dramatically lost weight after giving birth - for 2 months I went to the gym every day (almost), an hour and a half on the simulators, spent an hour on the track, almost didn’t eat .... and at least that !!! Maybe 1-2 kg ... but then 8 kg went away very quickly, in 1-2 months !!! At first the body resists, then it gives up. The main thing is not to tell yourself after 1-2-3 months of training - "I losing weight, it is better to quit. "The result will still be!

yeah :) you know how much I did :) I only lose weight from food :) and sports to cheer up, feel good and in general the norm of life.

first time to the fitness club. - get-togethers. Fashion and beauty. You have to show the technique, paint the program. Learn more about the rules of the club before the locker room. For example, some come to the hall in flip flops or a short top, or bring children, or come to the pool without ...

Discussion

You have already been told about group lessons. Now for the trainers.
It is better not to approach them without a coach. Briefing as a minimum, a block of individual training as a maximum.
To harm yourself with work with weights is nothing to do if you have never done it. You have to show the technique, paint the program.
Learn more about the rules of the club before the locker room. For example, some come to the hall in flip flops or a short top, or bring children, or come to the pool without a cap, and this, for example, is prohibited by the rules of this club.
It is recommended to take water (to drink), a towel (wipe the simulator, lay it on the bench) with you to the gym.
According to the rules good manners you need to clean up the equipment, dumbbells and remove the weights from the simulators.
All classes start with a warm-up, end with stretching and a hitch.
If there is a goal - to lose weight, then it is necessary to combine cardio with certain restrictions in the diet.
Immediately tune in to the training regimen that you will be ready to maintain for six months to a year. Those. you should not rush into classes as if into a whirlpool with your head: 6 times a week or for hours in the gym, so at this pace the body will quickly run out of steam.
And most importantly, FORGET the word "shy". You come to the gym to work on yourself, and not to a beauty contest. And the rest come to do business, they have no time to discuss and look at others.
Find your activity type and just enjoy the activity!

Everyone once comes to a fitness club for the first time :-), so you should not be shy at all! If you want to work out in the gym, then it makes sense to take at least one personal training session, the trainer will show you which simulators will be more effective for you, how to pump problem areas, lose weight, and in general, what you should pay attention to:- ). But in general, the lesson is structured as follows: 10 minutes - warm-up (for example, walking at a fast pace on a treadmill), then simulators: first exercises on the press, then bypass the simulators on the lower or upper body, and then go to any of the cardio machines (track, stepper, ellipse, bicycle) lose weight - for 30 minutes. Ideally, you need to practice 3 times a week, then the result will already be visible in a month. After class, it's nice to relax in the jacuzzi, then in the sauna... Good luck!

I worked out in the gym until half of my pregnancy - I did everything the same as before, only with a smaller load. Trained women who were actively involved in sports before pregnancy, when planning pregnancy: nutrition and vitamins, exercise, sleep.

Discussion

I worked out in the gym until half of my pregnancy - I did everything the same as before, only with a smaller load. As for the press, my doctor said that you can even do it at the beginning of pregnancy, but I didn’t, we waited too long for this event, we didn’t want to risk it. And so, even until the end of pregnancy, you can walk on a treadmill, only at the end you still can’t do exercises lying down (and on your back, and, of course, on your stomach). The main thing is not to drastically change the way of life, i.e. If you have been actively engaged before, then continue. And if you just want to start now, then you should not do this.

Light aerobics - exercise bike, treadmill, stapler - I did this every day for at least 20 minutes on any day of the cycle. then weight. In the first half of the cycle - weight on all parts of the body, in the second - top part. And Pilates every day or every other day - even if it’s on the press, but gently ... I still do them now (at 19 weeks) - not all, really ...

The content of the article:

Most often, the question of whether it is possible to play sports every day is asked by novice athletes. Their desire for short time maximize possible outcome quite understandable. At the same time, they often give all their best in the classroom, leaving all their strength in the hall. Quite quickly, their enthusiasm is replaced by amazement at how pro-athletes can train every day. The answer is quite simple, because they have been training for many years, and their body has learned to perceive loads well. This is not typical for beginners, and today we will talk about whether it is possible to play sports every day.

The scientific basis for limiting exercise frequency

First, it is worth finding out the reasons why a person decides to start visiting the gym. Most often this happens at those moments when people want to get rid of excess weight or restore the old slim figure. If you started playing sports in order to lose weight, then you should not even talk about whether you can play sports every day.

It should be understood that if you are overweight, then this leads to a sharp increase in the load on the heart muscle and joints. By and large, in such a situation, all body systems work at the limit of their capabilities. It is quite obvious that excessive physical activity in such a situation can lead to serious negative consequences.

If you have previously been involved in sports and now, after a long break, you decide to resume training, then it is important to understand that the body as a whole and the muscles in particular have managed to wean themselves from physical exertion. Thus, you will again experience sharp sharp pain in the muscles after training, which in sports is commonly called krepatura.

It is a consequence of the production of large amounts of lactic acid, which is a metabolite of energy reactions. Do not underestimate this body signal, otherwise you may be forced to stop exercising no longer of your own free will.

If you have been exercising for a couple of months and the body has been able to adapt to a certain load, you should not immediately increase the number of classes during the week. The body needs time to recover and it is at this time that muscles grow and fat tissues are actively burned.

If you don't give your body enough time to recover from exercise, you'll end up in a state called overtraining. The most unpleasant thing here is not the fact that this condition negatively affects not only the muscles, but also the nervous system. It is the central nervous system that recovers after physical exertion for the longest possible time and you will have to stop exercising for at least a week or even two.

Of course, the body of each person is a unique mechanism. Some people are able to recover earlier, while for others, this process can be delayed. However, there is a general recommendation that says that between classes you need to rest for at least 24 hours. In most cases, this period of time is enough for the body to restore the work of all systems.

Even if you use cardio loads, and not strength ones, it’s worth at least a day to rest. It should also be remembered that with increasing load it increases and the body needs time to recover. First of all, this applies to large muscle groups: legs and back. It may take up to 72 hours for them to recover.

It is quite difficult for beginners to properly organize their training process. We recommend that you seek the help of an experienced trainer who will draw up an optimal training schedule for you and create an effective training program. If for some reason you cannot do this and decide to do your own training process, then adhere to the following rules:

  1. Do not practice more than three times in a week.
  2. After class, you need to rest for at least 24 hours, and after working on the muscles of the legs and back - 48 hours.
  3. If you have problems with blood pressure or the work of the heart muscle, then monitor their performance and, if necessary, consult a doctor.
  4. If you want to increase the frequency of training, then you should turn to a good massage therapist who will help get rid of excess stress.
  5. Divide the workouts of muscle groups over different days, while remembering that small muscles recover faster.

Is it possible for girls to play sports every day?


Most girls visit the weight loss gym and also want to get quick results. They are no less interested in knowing the answer to the question of whether it is possible to play sports every day, in comparison with the guys. If you love fitness so much that you are ready to visit the gym every day, then this is good, but you should be extremely careful with frequent classes. When a girl wants to know if it is possible to play sports every day in order to get rid of excess weight as soon as possible and is ready to exhaust her body for this, the answer will definitely be negative.

Several factors influence the number of sessions per week. First of all, it is the intensity of classes and their type. In addition, the level of preparation of the girl and the goals set for her are important. Let's look at a few examples to answer this question.

The average girl goes in for sports to get rid of excess weight in order to make her figure slim and fit. If the experience of classes does not exceed three or four months, and during the training are not used big weights the body will be able to recover in about a day.

In this situation, it is worth training three times a week, using strength training, and in the pauses between anaerobic loads, you can conduct cardio sessions. In such a situation, the body will be able to fully recover, and you will be able to achieve your goal.

If a girl has been training for more than a year, then she uses serious weights and she will need at least two days to recover. If you directly answer the question of whether it is possible to play sports every day, then the answer can be positive. However, there is one caveat that should always be remembered.

We have already talked about this, namely the speed of recovery of large muscle groups. If yesterday you worked on the muscles of the legs or back, then today you can conduct a lesson, paying all attention to small muscles on it. Also in such a situation, a cardio session is allowed, lasting about half an hour. However, at least one or better two days a week should be completely free from training.

If you do not use strength training and prefer to work out in a group under the supervision of an experienced mentor, then again the answer to the question - is it possible to exercise every day, will be positive. But here, too, there is one condition that must be observed - your daily workouts must be of a different nature.

Let's say yesterday you were dancing, and today you can go to yoga. After that, you can hold interval classes, and visit Pilates the next day. This workout schedule can be perfect for fitness-loving girls who are watching their figure.

If you have the opportunity to visit various sections, you can safely do it. When this is not possible, then choose the type of fitness that you prefer. You can try to do it daily, and if you do not feel discomfort or excessive fatigue, then continue to train.

How to play sports correctly?


Now we will give recommendations on the organization of training, which may be useful to those people who decide to start playing sports, but do not know anything about it. First of all, you must be sure that you have no contraindications. To do this, you need to undergo a full medical examination.
