    an hour or maybe a few minutes more. I don't talk to anyone, and tend to work around the social butterflies...I am on a mission.

    i find it hard to train for any less than 1.5 hours when im working 2 body parts..... usually about 30min - 1hr on each body part.

    But i workout with a mate so we alternate plus sometimes if a machine/bench is taken we got 2 wait for a few minutes.

    Plus if im doing heavier weights id usually have a larger break in between sets

    i also Drink heaps of water while im at the gym

    Usually no more than 45 minutes at a time, and no more than 4 days a week of weight training, I do three days a week of cardiovascualar training, (get in, hit it hard with the utmost intensity, not to short, not to long, get out of the gym, rest, and feed your body right, really is simple when you think about it.

    Almost always right around 1 hour. The exception is deadlift day- every other back traaining session involves heavy deads. It takes me 45 minutes just to do deadlifts counting warmup cardio, warmup sets, and the 5 or so minutes I lay motionless on a bench after the last set.

    1-2 hours.Typical days: mornings Monday chest 40 minutes, shoulders 20 minutes and tris 20 with 5 minutes abs. Tuesday 40 minutes back, 5 minutes traps and 20 minutes biceps. Friday legs 1 hour main exercises squats and stiff legged deadlift followed by calfs. I do afternoon, 1/2 hour cardio 3 times weekly but going to try losing weight on the last 4 weeks of my cycle so I'll do 45 minutes 5 x week. One hour in the gym just isn't enough time for me to work my muscles hard and get recovery between sets. I will take an extra day or two off if I think I may be overtrained. For me the only thing worse than not training is being overtrained. Burns me out real fast.

    try and try to keep it under an hour, but it usually runs over. M W F is about 75 min, and Tu Th is around 30 min. of easy abs and such.

    the distrations and lack of focus from the typical local gym forced me to by my own equipment for the gargage... now i blast some crazy music, psyc myself up, lift and leave in an hour or less.
    and i never wait on equipment behind some fat ass flanking around on a bench

    I'm almost always exactly 1 hour 15 minutes. I would probably be a little quicker, but my wife is my workout partner so we do alot of plate changing.

    Maybe I missed it, but who knows for sure if cardio on your lifting days is worse, or if running on your off days is worse considering recovery?

    my routine

    1. Arrive @ gym 6:00pm
    2. Finish saying hello to everyone I know 6:10
    3. Weights 6:15-8:15 (with intensity, ignore everyone else including training parnters - have headphones on with death metal playing)
    4. 8:15 Pop some hydrocodones
    5. Mingle with hot girls who are friends with the hot female trainers 8:15-8:30
    6. Do light cardio next to hot girls and talk to them 8:30-9:30
    7. Hot girls asks if you compete or model anything
    8. Ask for phone number
    9. Go home, have a protein shake, eat oatmeal, jerk off and call hot girls.
    10. Tell girl(s) you're too tired to do anything that night and go to bed.

    repeat the next day.

    Used to go for 2-2.5 hours. Now I try to keep it about an hour. Depends on how I feel and what I am working. I used to think that it would be impossible to get anything done under two hours. I cut down my exercises, jacked up the intensity, and have had better gains since.
    Peace
