How Much Should You Work Out TO SEE RESULTS?

Any kind of movement is better than none.

But for those of us looking to transform our bodies quickly, it’s best to know if the kind of exercises we’re doing—and the frequency—will do the trick.

We reached out to Sami Clarke, creator of Form, the 14-Day Power Pilates program, to learn what kind of workouts we should be doing (and when we should be doing them) to start seeing results ASAP.

How often should we work out?

“For beginners, I would recommend starting out with three times a week of intentional movement like pilates, strength training, boxing, or whatever you feel your body is excited to do,” shares Sami. “The other three days, I encourage a one-hour walk. You can even add ankle weights on the arms for a bonus. If you are already on a workout schedule, I recommend intentional movement five times a week, leaving the weekends for walking, hiking, swimming, etc.”

What exercises give the fastest results? 

“It really depends on how your body responds to different workouts, but I found for myself that a mix of HIIT, strength training, and Pilates has the most impact,” says Sami.

Listen to your body.

“If you wake up and feel that your body needs a rest day or slower movement, give it that,” Sami stresses. “If you wake up feeling energized, then go with that. You won’t see results if you’re forcing your body to do things it doesn’t want to do.”

Consistency is key.

“Don’t look for the quick fix. Find something that is realistic for your lifestyle that you can do long term,” says Sami. “Consistency is what will really help sculpt and define your muscles and ultimately make you stronger.”
