Every day incorporate stretch exercise in your program. You can also set one day rest between this 5 day plan. Yoga is one thing you can do on this rest day. You can do 30 minute cardio exercises followed by stretch in your 3 day plan. If you did cardio training today, tomorrow is for resistance work out plus stretching. Spread it along your 5 day week plan.

There are also intermediate plan programs for advance user. After working on your early stage of beginners plan, you may level up your exercise program by doing cardio exercises in 5 days instead of 3 days. You can also include strenght training in your everyday schedule.
