The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I will begin with a regiment of three times a week for now (M,W & F) starting tomorrow and will work up to performing this task everyday.

Doing resistance exercise daily isn't recommended, because it doesn't give the muscles that were involved enough time to recover. If you do want to do it daily eventually, then the advice is to alternate muscle groups so you can pair exercise and recovery.

A side note....which I add as a writer/editor who can't help not saying something :-( .....the word you want here is "regimen," rather than "regiment." A regiment is an army unit. A regimen is a systematic way of doing something, often for health.....medical treatment, dietary, exercise, etc. It's an incredibly common word mis-use ....with "regime" another word often used instead of "regimen."
