A:How many times a week do you do the 40 laps? I used to do 20 laps a day, 5 days a week. Plus, I was running up my nine flights of steps to my dorm room and running around campus. I was in great shape. Now not in college and looking to get back in shape. If I did the 40 laps a day for 5 days a week, would that be too much?
