Enough? It's too much for me thank you very much.

No you should go at least 5 days a week and workout for no less then an hour.

It depends on what you want to accomplish by going to the gym. It's certainly better than just sitting on the couch anyway.

Guidelines for healthy adults under age 65 Basic recommendations from ACSM and AHA: Do moderately intense cardio 30 minutes a day, five days a week Or Do vigorously intense cardio 20 minutes a day, 3 days a week And Do eight to 10 strength-training exercises, eight to 12 repetitions of each exercise twice a week. Moderate-intensity physical activity means working hard enough to raise your heart rate and break a sweat, yet still being able to carry on a conversation. It should be noted that to lose weight or maintain weight loss, 60 to 90 minutes of physical activity may be necessary. The 30-minute recommendation is for the average healthy adult to maintain health and reduce the risk for chronic disease. You don't have to go to the gym, but to be healthy you do need some kind of exercise.
