Sometimes it can be hard to tell the difference between allergies and the common cold. There are more than a hundred strains of cold viruses. Each tends to become widespread at certain times of the year, which is why you may mistake a cold for a seasonal allergy.
Q: How often should I work out? A: The amount of exercise you need depends on the type of lifestyle you want to maintain. For beginners, most experts recommend at least 20 minutes of exercise three times a week. These 20 minutes can be a combination of four 5-minute sessions of exercise, two 10-minute sessions or 20 continuous minutes. Just doing something is better than no exercise at all.
However, if someone is just starting to exercise, working out 2-3 days a week may be a more realistic approach. You can work out 3 days a week or it could be 6 or 7. Determine what you will be committed to long term and what is feasible for your lifestyle. Some people do better with 3 days, and some people like 5. Any range can be acceptable, as long as it is at least 2 days a week.
