I'm not sure what answer you want? If this was medical advise you'd need to decide whether it was correct and follow course as you see fit.

Who gave this advice? Are you attempting to get to 5k or are you currently running 5k three times? What gym is being advised? Is this down to time constraints? The running and the gym could both go 3 times a week (or per six days) depending on the gym work it could go more.
