I am wondering how much workout time MsFit recommends that you have to put in every day in order to acheive your desired results?

Hi! For weights, she typically starts with a basic program of a 4 day split, working on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Cardio is more individualized, depending on your goals and where you are starting from. For me, cardio is 4 days a week. For my schedule, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday works best. She wants you to have at least one full day of rest, no cardio or weights. You can rearrange the days to fit your schedule, of course, so you'll get the work done.
You shouldn't spend more than an hour doing your weights, and your cardio will vary depending on what you need. She typically starts lower on cardio (20 minutes) and may have you gradually increase to 40-45 minutes, but again, that's hard to say. Mine has never gone above 30 minutes to date (I started with her last October), but I know it will increase the closer I get to comp.
I don't have the optimum setup at home yet, so my weight workouts take longer when I'm on weeks of higher reps, lower weights (for me, this is once every 6 weeks, to shock the body), because I'm sliding my bench around the hot water heater, LOL, and I'm trying not to be real loud while my husband is sleeping.
He's not overly excited about my competing, so I try to make it not "interfere" with "our" life as much as possible. We compete in jackpots rodeos, and he'd prefer if I just stuck to that with him. But this is something I've wanted to do for me since 1990, so I'm going for it. He's coming around, LOL.
