How often to you go the gym to stay in great shape? - GoFuckYourself.com

chaze · 08-25-2010, 05:19 PM

I'm trying to go everyday, but something always comes up.

What realistic to stay in great shape?

AaronM · 08-25-2010, 05:21 PM

Never. And my oval type shape is sexy as hell.

CYF · 08-25-2010, 05:22 PM

I do martial arts twice a week but don't really work out other than that.

Sergio Payingsolutions · 08-25-2010, 05:29 PM

Depends what you are shooting for, to maintain a good physique doesn't take a lot of work since your muscles take a while of no attention to regress, to work on your conditioning requires more dedication.

beerptrol · 08-25-2010, 05:30 PM

I don't go to the gym. I have a nice little set up here at home

garce · 08-25-2010, 08:25 PM

I go to the gym once every twenty years ago.

Amputate Your Head · 08-25-2010, 08:38 PM

don't need the gym, I'm naturally awesome.

woj · 08-25-2010, 08:41 PM

having a good workout 3x per week is probably sufficient to stay in shape...

vittle · 08-25-2010, 09:03 PM

on my way to the gym now!

Jimmy Sinclair · 08-25-2010, 09:03 PM

I workout almost every day at the gym. And when I don't, I feel really bad. It is an addiction at this point... some people need their coffee and cigs... I need my workout! It also helps that my trainer is a hot young college guy ;)

Jon Oso · 08-25-2010, 09:05 PM

I just don't eat. And then when I do eat I puke everything up.

SleazyDream · 08-25-2010, 09:55 PM

i'm in shape. i choose round

Pseudonymous · 08-25-2010, 10:04 PM

5 days weightlifting, 2 days hard cardio. Light cardio on all days.

6000 Calories a day.

How much time you have to spend lifting weights/doing cardio depends on your bodytype and the individual, every single person is different when it comes to losing weight. One thing is the same, losing weight = burning more calories than your taking in. If youre completely out of shape, sometimes all it takes is eating right and jogging once or twice a week.

If you don't go atleast twice a week, you can't really get into the routine, you have nothing to really build on. Once you go enough, your body starts to crave it, which helps you actually enjoy the gym

The Demon · 08-25-2010, 10:16 PM

Not sure what "Staying in shape" means in this context. 80% of your body transformation is done in the kitchen, so you can work out 6 days a week and still be a fatass if you eat 6,000 calories a day. I eat about 500 calories below maintenance, lift 5-6 days a week, and do cardio 5-6 days a week. Currently approaching 10% body fat.

Blackamooka · 08-25-2010, 11:41 PM

I do a 4 day split.

Shoulders/Triceps on Monday
Back on Tuesday
Wednesday Rest
Chest/Biceps Thursday
Legs on Friday
Saturdays and Sundays are rest days
(Abs on Mondays and Thursdays)

You shouldn't go everyday. Your body needs rest days as much as it needs exercise. If you're doing mostly compound exercises and cardio stuff, you can go more days, but if you have a heavier routine, you need at least 3 rest days in between muscle groups.

DatingGold · 08-25-2010, 11:49 PM

I think 3 days to maintain.. 4-5 days to improve

d-null · 08-26-2010, 12:06 AM

5 days a week, you don't have to go hard every day, sometimes on a busy day just a quick trip to the gym for 20 minutes of cardio is perfect and makes you feel so much better

xNetworx · 08-26-2010, 12:11 AM

Its 80% diet, 20% exercise to look fit. 50/50 to get massive.

icymelon · 08-26-2010, 12:16 AM

yu need at least 5 hours of cardio week just to be healthy. which includes walking doesnt need to be at the gym. but thats a good start.

Realgfs · 08-26-2010, 12:59 AM

..When Im fat, I just stop being fat, and be awesome -True story!

Zuzana Designs · 08-26-2010, 02:38 AM

I walk/run 4-5 miles a day at the beach or on the treadmill. I do weights 5 days a week. I have a gym set up in my house that I spent lots of money on so I can stay in top notch shape. We only have one body so we better take care of it while we can.

sojproductions · 08-26-2010, 03:21 AM

6000 calories?? fuck thats alot... i eat < 2000 and go 4-5 times a week.... 6000?!??

ottopottomouse · 08-26-2010, 03:53 AM

Never. Trying to gain weight rather than lose it.

NetHorse · 08-26-2010, 04:11 AM

Lift 3 days a week
Cardio 3 days a week first thing in the morning

Honestly, I don't know how you can run a biz like this and NOT exercise. I know that sounds stupid, but most jobs are a lot more physically demanding than rolling out of your bed and going to your computer.

If I didn't workout I'd feel like a limp dick noodle.

Dirty Lord · 08-26-2010, 05:12 AM

Itchy · 08-26-2010, 07:00 AM

5 days a week but then I'm there for losing weight not staying in shape :P Plan is to only have to go 3 days a day later to stay in shape

I let myself go for years and I felt like that. I have been on a diet and exercise routine now for 4 mos. I feel great, lost 40 lbs so far (20-40 more to go, depending on how far I take it), and its worth it. The limp dick noodle thing just hit the nail on the head. I really had no upper body strength after years of sitting here programming and doing no physical exercise. Now I do an hour 4-5 times a week (15 min upper body, 45 min on treadmill) and I feel great. It's just all around better for your state of mind as well imho.

bronco67 · 08-26-2010, 07:14 AM

2 or 3 times a week is plenty enough to maintain, but an insane body needs more. I just got back into shape recently, and after about 3 weeks off, I can see some titties coming back.

i've noticed the peeps who start these threads are never serious about it. they usually never reply back in them, never start another thread saying "hey, i took that workout advice and here's my results", nada, nothing, zilch. i even started a thread asking for peeps who've started threads like these to report in with results- not one replied.

the cats who are serious like tony299, net horse, carlos the gaucho, dlxphil, the demon, don't start threads like this, they just get busy and stay busy.

Roby · 08-26-2010, 09:05 AM

one time per week

Semi-Retired-Dave · 08-26-2010, 10:40 AM

When I have a big shoot coming up, Like Calvin Klein, I try to go 3 times a week to work on my abs and tone up. If nothing is scheduled, I just eat junk food and not workout at all.

_Richard_ · 08-26-2010, 10:42 AM

go in the mornings, every second day but if you can't, aim for 3x week

Vanilla DeVille · 08-26-2010, 11:04 AM

I'm in the gym five to six days a week. Three muscle building days and two/three cardio days. It's a great stress reliever for me!

4 times per week

strobi · 08-26-2010, 11:26 AM

Currently I eat around 3100 calories/day (I'm bulking up until next summer) and go to the gym 3 times a week (3-split). For around 1.5 hour each time. Al it takes to be in shape!

strobi · 08-26-2010, 11:27 AM

Althought I love going, I couldn't image going 5-7 times a week, where do you all get the time?

There's always time. Especially for people that make their own schedule like alot of the members of GFY.

Nope, just 10% above maintenance. I like to do things slowly, and steadilly. I weight 185 pound-ish.

LMFAO.

You can lose weight with mainly diet and 3+ days of cardio and some lifting. You can get big with a solid diet and lifting heavy. You can get ripped with big muscles with a great diet, a lot of lifting and a good amount of cardio. If you want to look like a pro bodybuilder, add steroids to the mix.

Either way, if your diet isn't in order, you won't see very good results no matter what you do in the gym. You also need 8 hours of sleep every night.

I eat fairly well, lift 5+ times a week and do cardio (high intensity interval training) 2-3 times per week.

BVF · 08-26-2010, 11:59 AM

I workout five times a week...M,W,F I do weights and cardio afterwards....Tue,Th I do cardio and then Pilates afterwards. I mostly rest on saturdays and sundays with an "executive workout" which entails shower/jacuzzi/sauna/steamroom/shower.

TDF · 08-26-2010, 12:02 PM

5 days a week...yoga once a week

seeandsee · 08-26-2010, 12:07 PM

3 times a week plus some sport on weekends if you want to stay in some kind of good shape

kristin · 08-26-2010, 12:07 PM

Five times/week.

Mix of cardio and lifting.

fuzebox · 08-26-2010, 02:36 PM

I hate the gym and lifting weights. I maintain with yoga...

Adam_M · 08-26-2010, 03:38 PM
