Yes, it's very possible to maintain with only 3-4 days of structured exercise per week, especially if you're the type of person who stays more active anyways (parking farther from the store, taking steps instead of stairs, going for walks as a hobby, etc.) I am a huge supporter of the minimalist fitness movement, and here's one of my favorite articles outlining a way to make your own minimalist workout.
http://zenhabits.net/minimalist-fitn...-no-equipment/ I still workout 5-6 days per week because it greatly improves my moodiness and depression issues, and because I eat what I want to eat, which isn't always clean or healthy lol. And because I love these videos! |

I recently went back down to 3 to 4 days a week for fitness gains, ironically, and it's working. Rotations that require 6 days of working out leave me stressed, overtrained and prone to retain weight.
When I stopped treating my body like it was a work mule it seemed to really appreciate it. I'm nowhere near a Size 8 but I've dropped two jeans sizes. |
