I don't visit a gym - I do t have time with a family and working full time shifts
What I do is walk, I have a dog and I get the kids to tag along, I aim for 30 miles per week. Weight loss is slow but steady 2-3lb per week0 -
I'm another who changes it up all the time due to boredom. Currently doing an 8 week Fitness Blender program like someone else posted. So it's 5 or 6 days with a different focus each day. So HIIT, weighted upper/lower work (usually supersets), cardio intervals, core work, kickboxing etc. I really enjoy the variety.
I go through running phases too when my agoraphobia/anxiety/panic allows. If I'm running then I'll aim for three times a week of about 5k and a couple of strength days (again Fitness Blender is usually my default for this).
I am otherwise super sedentary and have to make a real effort to even hit 6k steps per day but that's okay as my workouts are intense and keep me fit enough!
Edited to add: I never go near a gym!0 -

Monday- Abs & Arms/Elliptical
Tues- legs/treadmill
Weds- Abs/Elliptical

I'm using fitnessblenders fb30 workout plan right now + yoga daily. (small town no gym)
It looks something like
HIIT - 30m
Upper body 30m
Cardio 30m
Lower body 30m
HIIT 30m
Stretch/yoga day
Rest
Some of the upper body days also mix in cardio, and HIIT is sometimes mixed in with lower body. I also do yoga for 20-40 minutes daily and if I'm super sore or stressed I'll do some restorative yoga before bed.
This is for 8 weeks, after this I'll move onto FBFIT that has 45-55 minute workouts vs 30m. This is my first time following a plan and so far I love it!0 -

@kshama2001 ... Talk about late replies! We didn't have too much snow here this year which is surprising, as I am in Canada! But running outside for me is dangerous on ice as I am not totally graceful to begin with haha. But walking in the snow might have been a better idea... It just gets so cold here, that I prefer to get my sweat on when it is not going to freeze! :-)0

Am recovering from a bad ankle sprain. I'm used to being in the gym 6 days a week though.
Right now, I do Barre on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, and Deep Extreme (Body Art) on Fridays. As part of my recovery, I do bike and elliptical too, either on my off days or before a class.
When my ankle is better, I'll add Spin on Mondays and Wednesdays. Quite possibly I'll do Best Butt Ever instead of Barre on Thursdays.0 -
My current workout regime is this:
M - TRX class (or strength training if I can't go)
T - 3 mile run
W - strength/rest
T - 2 mile run and yoga
F - rest
S - strength & cross training
S - long run
Mine always looks somewhat similar. Usually 3 days of running and 3 days of strength. Yoga, cross training, and a complete rest day thrown in there too.
Oh and I always get 12k steps, but that's separate from my workout schedule (although running days are a lot easier to get my steps done).0 -

Monday - five/six mile run either outside or on the treadmill
Tuesday - three mile power walk or an hour on the eliptical,
Wednesday - five/six mile run
Thursday - three mile power walk or an hour on the eliptical
Friday -five/six mile run
Saturday - totally weather dependent - could be an hour's swim, a day's hike, a bit of cross-country skiing
Sunday - again, just depends how I feel or what the weather is doing - could be a run or I could just sit on my *kitten*
Also make sure I get 12,000 steps in each day.0 -
