FREQUENCY. When considering frequency, you might also
factor in other components. If you're focusing on cardio exercise
like running or walking at a moderate intensity, you might
exercise five times each week. If you're doing cardio activity at a
high intensity, you might only exercise three times each week. In
contrast, if you're focusing on strength training, you might do
that two to three times each week on non-consecutive days to
avoid overworking the muscles.
