How frequently you should train is dependent on a lot of different factors, for example your training goals, the intensity of your exercise as well as any history of injury that you may have. Also, the kind of training you do can determine how frequently you need to exercise.<\/p>\n
Exercise stresses a number of systems in our body. This stress results in fatigue however also leads to \u2018adaptations\u2019 (in other words, improvements) particular to the stress that we\u2019ve experienced. For instance, while resistance training (such as weight lifting) assists us with building muscular strength<\/a>, it\u2019s far less likely to improve our cardiovascular fitness as it places more stress on our skeletal muscles as opposed to our heart.<\/p>\n But improvements only take place with a mixture of recovery and repetition. If we don\u2019t perform the training stress again, improvements that you make will be lost. In addition, we need to give our body sufficient time \u2013 but not too much time \u2013 between training sessions to recover as well as \u2018adapt\u2019. In short, the key to boosting fitness is to consistently train, which means striking a balance between exercising and recovering enough.<\/p>\nAerobic Activity<\/strong><\/h2>\n
