How Many Days a Week Should You Work Out?

How often you visit the gym depends on your goals, available time and the activities you do outside the gym. Start by choosing a routine you can fit into your week, then discuss your plan with a coach.

Think about weekly activity, not just gym visits

The CDC recommends that adults aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity activity each week, or an equivalent amount of more vigorous activity, plus muscle-strengthening activity on at least two days. You can spread activity across the week; it does not all need to happen at the gym. Read the CDC’s adult activity guidance.

Plan your visits around your schedule

Choose times you can attend consistently. At Fitness Arcade, the gym opens Monday–Saturday from 7AM–8PM, and Sunday from 4PM–8PM. Allow for your journey to Beauty Arcade Building at Abijo GRA 2nd Gate.

Using the gym floor and cardio area

Membership includes gym-floor access and the cardio zone. Ask a coach about combining these activities and allowing suitable recovery time for your routine.

Joining a group class

Group classes run Monday–Saturday from 8AM–9:30AM and 6PM–7PM. Different coaches lead the sessions. Group classes are included in gym membership and daily access.

Choosing personal training

Personal training provides four sessions weekly with an assigned coach for an additional ₦50,000 per month. Enquire about scheduling and session details before booking. The training fee is separate from gym membership.

Try the gym before choosing a longer plan

A ₦3,000 daily pass includes gym access, scheduled group classes and table tennis. Your first monthly membership costs ₦40,000 including registration, with subsequent monthly renewals at ₦35,000. View all membership plans.
