Probably 5-6 times now. Before kids and my metabolism tanking....3 times.

My PCOS metabolism says pretty intense exercise every day in combination with absolutely no processed food, alcohol or sweets if I ever want to actually lose weight.
Which is why I haven't been in great shape for the last 7 years.... ugh...

I'd say 5 days/week.

4-5 days a week.

I think it depends on your individual fitness goals.

If you want to be a fitness model, you'll need to be at the gym 6 days a week lifting heavy and eating clean 95% of the time.

If you just want to be healthy and look good, 3 days a week lifting heavy + cardio and eating well most of the time should do fine.

I'd also say the way you eat matters more than your time at the gym. Think about it, an hour 6 days a week at the gym is only 10% of your week. How you are fuelling yourself is that other 90% contribution to your overall health.

When I was younger? Never haha. Now? 4-5 days a week. Although my diet could be better, that would probably help.... but I love food!
