Do you ever wonder what you should be doing on a weekly basis as far as your optimal physical activity schedule? Do you exercise regularly and eat mindfully yet still are not seeing the results you want? Have you hit a plateau? Tina and I question the expert in the room, Dr. Jinger Gottschall, for you! We ask questions like:

* How many days a week do I need to exercise?

* How much cardio and strength training do I need each week?

* Does it matter what type of training you do each day?

* Are two strength training back-to-back days in a row OK?

* Should I go in with a goal? If so, would this affect the type of training schedule I should make to optimize?

* If I am doing two workouts in the same day, does it matter if I do cardio before or after strength?

* Does it matter what time of day I complete cardio or strength?

* How do rep speed and compound vs. isolated exercises factor into the optimization process?

* Is flexibility training necessary?

* Do I have to do high intensity training to be fit?

* How should we manage changing work/life schedules when considering consistency and frequency?

* How important is it to stick with the same routine weekly? Is it better to have the same schedule or mix it up? If changing it up is good, how frequently?

* Would you recommend some sort of fitness challenge as a way to break a plateau?

* How important is having the right attitude in optimizing your workouts?
