For instance for club level, Tennis if one were to play singles/doubles, when exactly should they rest depending upon age. An interesting sport is any day better to indluge in regularly than a workout. Very interesting but one should also give this information sportswise.

But if I had to give an ideal routine that people could either jump into or work up to over time, I'd get in 2-3 weight training sessions a week focusing just on the whole-body or main muscle groups. I find that the people getting the best results are the ones who get in and get out so they can get on with other things. To do this, the best of the best really are the classics: bench press, deadlifts, squats, pullups and pushups! I tend to hit 4 sets per exercise and go for about half an hour a few times a week. I've found my own results to be really inspiring, in that anyone can do this and it doesn't take up much of your time at all! Anything else goes well too, as long as it's vigorous. I like getting interval sprints in once or twice a week to really kick things up. You really only need that half hour workout a few times a week to get results, the rest is just generally staying active! So an ideal workout routine might look something like this: Monday: Chest & Back Tuesday: Free Day (Yoga? Nature Hike?) Wednesday: Legs & Abs Thursday: Sprints (15-20 Min) Friday: Chest & Back That may look a little scattered trying to fit something I could write a book on into a few sentences, but I hope it helped clarify things on some level (feel free to follow up with any other questions).
