Open Question: How long should I exercise?

September 5th, 2008

I’m a 22 year old male, 5′10, about 195 pounds. I’m starting an exercise routine on a elliptical trainer and I want to tone up a little and burn off excess fat.

Right now my plan is to start out 15 minutes a day for the first couple days, then go 20 - 25 minutes a day the following week or two, then 30 minutes per day by the end of the month. Is this a good plan? Or should I change it? Also, when I reach 30mins a day, is that a good routine to keep up indefinitely?

How many days out of the week should I do this?
