If your trainer is telling you 2.5 hours of training is good…it may be time to look for a new trainer. You will burn out quick and stop making progress is you keep working at that pace. my trainer isnt around much (roll eyes) thats why I went to talk to the one at the gym. she gave me a lot of good pointers that I did not know before. 2.5-3 hours is how much I like to work out a day, not someone telling me. I rotate routines. Slowed down my cardio from 1 a day to 30 min. Im not tryin to lose weight, but to gain it instead. I LOVE to work out and sweat…so its hard for me to cut out after an hour or so. Like last night I was only there for about an hour and felt like I did nothin after I left. I try to get a good 4-5 days in a week. 2-3 of them are week days after work so thats when I can only fit in an hour or so workout. on the weekends I spend 2-3. I didnt think that was too much…? --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/pittspeed-fitness-nutrition-thread-update/180728)._
