    I do an hour Monday through Thursday (plus yoga on Wednesdays); weekends vary. Sometimes I'm out in DC browsing the zoo or museums or sight-seeing. If the weather's crappy or I don't feel like going out, I'll do about 90 minutes Saturday and Sunday (I almost always do yoga on the weekends as well). In the summer I'm almost always in the pool; in the winter it's cardio in the gym.

    It's been a HUGE lifestyle change for me. I used to be so sedentary, because I'm a big reader, and when I first started working out, I lamented the fact that I had less time to read. Now, it's become so routine, if I for some reason don't work out, I feel all wonky and off my groove. You really can form new habits, and stick with them!

    I lift 4 days a week. It takes me anywhere from 45 minutes to 75 minutes, depending on the workout. Then I walk 2-3 days a week too. The walks are anywhere from 20-45 minutes and I may or may not do some sprints in the middle of them.

    I work out a minimum of five times a week. I may have an off week where it's four or a super motivated week where it's 7... But I average 5.

    I wake up at 530 am and do a 30-45 minute workout before I have to get my daughters to school.

    I workout because I actually enjoy it and for maintenance. My ultimate fitness goal is to lose 20 lbs and I've changed my eating to achieve that. The exercise just supports my deficit.

    so this ^ i too get up at 6am, before the kids wake to do a 50 minute body combat class - i do this 4 or 5 times a week.

    Daily. Mix of strength and cardio. Been doing it this way pretty consistently for the last 30 years.
