I am 41 years old man. I want to know that at this stage, up to how much times should we do surya namaskar daily to keep our body fit. Is there any more exercise is required after surya namaskar. At present I don't have any decease like sugar or BP, obesity etc. However sometimes constipation creates little bit problem to me.

Respect your body limit; do not overstretch. As a beginner, you might be tempted to imitate your yoga teacher or fellow practitioner. But remember, each body has a different capacity and different flexibility. The idea is not to compete with anyone. Do only as much as you can or your body can take. It is a good idea to do at least 12 rounds of Surya Namaskars daily (one set consists of two rounds – six with the right leg, six with the other). However, as a beginner to this yoga practice, you could start with two to four rounds and then gradually go up to as many as you can comfortably do (even up to 108 if you can!) Ideally, the practice is done in sets. This will ensure that both sides of the body are equally used.
