While it is absolutely imperative to engage in weight training exercises every week, the timing depends on your fitness level, workout routine and the number of days you do it.
If you have just started exercising, then strength training twice a week is enough for you. That’s because it’s taxing for the body, plus you need to master the form to avoid injury and muscle strain. Therefore, initially a short and simple session with lightweights is a preferred option.
After three to four weeks, you can gradually increase the frequency and weight to target more muscle groups.
