Is it ok to workout 3 hours a day?

[Anonymous]

I've been working out for a month now, feel like I can go further but is it healthy?

[MyNameIsJonas]

Well it really depends on what you are doing and what your goal is... For a tri-athlete that is normal. They do that everyday...

I do a lot of different types of exercises and usually workout 2x a day. Once in the AM then once at night. If you are just looking to increase endurance I'd say its fine. Just watch for injury and obviously slow down if you hurt.

is it okay? yes. but make sure you listen to your body. I used to train for 3 hours (I play soccer) and then work out another 1.5-- within a couple of weeks I had developed tendonitis in my knees and shin splints. when it's time to stop, you have to listen to your body. as long as you do this, you're golden! :)

That is a lot, certainly for every day. Its better to only workout between 1 and 2 hours and focuss every day on something different, so your body can restore. If you workout wrong, you eat your body instead of building it.

Oh dear that's a lot. I think 90 minutes is sufficient

have been sprinting +working out in the gym since 3 years ago.. its very healthy. since then 3,4 or 5 days per week 3-4 hours per day... but not just working out. without running these well built muscles won't function perfectly. plus you have an even better health than just working out lol

I workout 2 hours a day. But i rest on the weekends.

I think 3 hours a day is pushing it.

1 hour more and you could be a professional athlete.

Well, I used work out 6-8 hours a day. I had to lower the frequency down to 4 hours a day, when I joined the police.

You should workout between an hour and an hour and a half: no more than that. More than that is not healthy.

[SnowHearth]

I work out 6 hours a day during weekends and 8 hours during weekdays.

What are you doing that could possibly take that long?

And after one month, no, you're begging for injury.

[Arrowon12]

Yeah it's healthy but do you have in week a rest day? İt is important.

[BertMacklinFBI]

3 hours doing what?

[Asker]

Cardio, abs workout, Zumba, jogging

[BertMacklinFBI]

you cram all that into 3 hours? holy fuck lol

[BertMacklinFBI]

it will be taxing on your body and possibly your CNS

[SunshineAmy]

It's fairly excessive. I wouldn't.

[Kshppatel]

You're gonna tire yourself out.

[bubbletrouble]

That's a bit much, do one hour

[KFettario]
