I have been doing 15-20 minutes is that enough?

Well, it all depends on what exactly you're doing, and what you're trying to achieve......I'm not a personal trainer or anything, but what I like to do is alternate exercises 6 days a week...Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I do cardio for about 55-60 mins., and then Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays I like to do Muscle Strength Endurance type exercises for anywhere from 45-60 minutes.
It all varies for me based on my kids! lol I only exercise for an hour if they let me!!
But I think I've read somewhere that workouts in general should be atleast 40 or 45 mins. long to be really effective....but I'm not sure! Hopefully someone else can post a better and more accurate answer for you.....but in the meantime, I hope this helps!
