    I've done videos and classes and found classes easier to follow.

    I roller skate a lot, and run on treadmill for cardio. I do strength training once in awhile, but not as much as I want or should.

    I tried bodhi barre, which is like the pure barre franchisr, and it was so awesome! I got noticeably stronger, toned and bendier in just a month of classes. Unfortunately it was too expensive for me to keep it going. But if you can afford it, I highly recommend it. It will change the shape of your body in an awesome way. Especislly if you're like me and don't like to do strength stuff on your own.

    I'm currently following fitnessblender's 4 week reach program which is a mix of Pilates, yoga and stretching. I do this daily :)

    I've heard that's pretty tough! I'd love to know how you get on!

    It is a challenge...i am not going to say it is easy. The first time i did it it was so hard i puked.... But the results are amazing. Your body starts changing really fast. A friend of mine gave me the cds and told me to try it. The first time i did it i didn't finish it. But that this time around i will finish the 2 months

    I do a minimum of 30 mins cardio or strength every day. Up to an hour a few times a week. Mixture of personal training session on Mondays, Zumba or boxing DVD and just started an Insanity work out class on Saturday mornings. Really loving it! I need to combine regular exercise + tracking calories. My weight has been yo-yo-ing because one or the other seems to fall by the way side.. Not this time!!

    I have been jogging with my dog for 30 minutes 4 times a week and I'm working on learning some line dances. I know 5 currently and when I do them back to back I can really feel it.

    I read that I should be doing strength training as well, I have never done any kind of strength training any suggestions on how to get started?

    I walk almost every day. Today, I am going to start training for a 5k that's coming up in May. I meant to start training before now, but things happen sometimes! I have this app on my phone called Ease Into 5K. Wish me luck!
