Not knocking gym work as fitness training but 5 nights a week hard workout sounds too strenuous. Take a break between visits and recover.
Your workout suits me better too. I ride nearly 365 days a year, and do a fair amount of walking outdoors too. My gym workout is a hard 20 minutes with dumbbells, two to three times a week. Period. I just do two circuits of basic upper body exercises, about 5 or 6 exercises all together. The only reason I do this is because I need good upper body strength to do my occupation.
