What exercise you practice daily to stay fit?

What are the exercises or cardio you do daily yo stay fit and how many times each exercise?

nordlead2005

nothing. The only things I do daily are eat, sleep, go to the bathroom and brush my teeth.

I guess you could say I walk every day since I have to get around during the day.

20yearsyounger

I don't do anything daily other than get 14k steps. I do run 3-4 times a week (20 miles a week), cross train 2-3 times a week, strength 2-3 times a week, stretch/massage 3-4 times a week.

Find a program that works for you, something realistic that you will actually do. This usually means a program designed by a professional that many people use (note: not all personal trainers are "professionals").

Couch to 5k (running for non-runners) 3 days a week
Strong Curves (resistance and cardio for women, emphasis on butt, for beginner or intermediate) 3 or 4 days a week
Starting Strength / Strong Lifts / ICF (strength program for men&women, emphasis on compound lifts) 3 days a week
PHUL (intermediate program, more aesthetic than strength) 4 days a week
PPLPPLx (intermediate and above, can be programmed for aesthetic or strength focus) 6 days a week

If you are new to working out, I suggest looking at the top 3 choices

Adrienneburrows1

I walk for a few minutes followed by running as long as I can and then walk/run some more until I have done it for 30 mins.

CasperNaegle

lift weights five days a week.

lynz4589

I use the bike in the gym minimum of 3 days a week, minimum an hour a time but aim for 90 mins if I can! I also make sure I hit my minimum of 11k steps as many days as I physically can (on a running streak at the mo!)

cmuller1412

I do treadmill approx. 3 times a week.. I did an hour last night at 5.2km's p/h..
Need to start with some toning exercises asap - have lost 7 kg's in 2 weeks!

I have a bunch of exercise videos that I like to switch up. Fitness for me is cardio, strength & flexibility. So I do a different DVD each day. Yoga (flexibility) is usually day 7, a rest day for me.

I could create a list of body weight exercises or dumbbell exercises, but that's boring to me.

CassidyScaglione

I try to stretch daily, don't always manage it though. I like a sun salutations based sequence. I also do a bare minimum 30 mins of walking (I have a dog, so no punking out). But realistically, I'm a student with a pretty heavy course load, and I sit more than I should doing homework and stuffs.

iofred

Running, cycling, weights ... but more because I enjoy it than that I have to

CindyFooWho

I don't do any single type of workout every day. It's either some kind of HIIT, Body Combat, Body Step, running, hiking, Les Mils CXWorks, or maybe yoga/pilates. It's a big mix.

thereshegoesagain

I have a bad back so every morning starts with about 45 minutes of core strengthening. In the afternoon, I either swim 1.5 miles or walk 5-7 miles. About once a week I get a 7-10 mile hike in.

jdhcm2006

I don't exercise daily. I exercise 4-5 days a week.
Mon/Wed: pole
Tues/Thurs: yoga
Fri or Sat: could be rest days or a pole day depending on my work schedule and the way my body feels
Sun: always a rest day.

toughmudderMN

Right now I work out twice a day, 6 days per week. 45 Mins of cardio in the mornings. A 3 day lifting split( upper body pull, legs, back) and 30 mins of cardio at night. I think the main thing that keep me healthy is my food choices though.

williams969

I walk daily, 45-60 minutes at brisk pace Mon-Sat, 20-30 minutes on Sunday. Calisthenics thrice weekly, 45 minute sessions.

I do the brisk walking for cardiovascular health (family history of high cholesterol and high BP ends with me). I do the calisthenics for strength, for the challenge, and for maintaining muscle mass and bone density.

kgirlhart

I walk every day usually 3-4 miles. I am starting to try incorporating a little bit of running into my walks. I also do a yoga video about 3 times a week. I want to start some type of weight lifting routine, but I am having trouble getting started. I"m not really sure how to start or what to do. I've started looking into my options though because I feel like I really need to add some strength training in.

sjbuescher

swim hard MWF, run, weights, and recovery swims mixed in the other days.

yozzer

Caveman training. High intensity workouts . Lost 1st 7lb 8 weeks

BrianSharpe

I mix it up between running (4 x weekly), riding ( 3 to 5 x weekly), rowing (avg 3 x weekly) and strength training (3 x weekly) and I further mix the cardio up between steady state and intervals.

I'm going to assume, based on your question, that you're new to this. It's going to take some trial and error to find things that you enjoy doing (life's too short to be doing things that you hate doing) and what you're capable of doing now will very different to what you may be able to do a year from now, set realistic, progressive goals for yourself and have fun!

This is really great advice.

briscogun

I generally workout 6 out of 7 days a week. I alternate days between doing a C25K program and YAYOG (You Are Your Own Gym). I take Wednesdays off about half the time just so I can sleep in and rest once a week (like today, I was tired...). I'll be back after it tomorrow!

LivingtheLeanDream

Walk - daily - 5+ miles
Run x 5 - 3 + miles
Lift x 3 days

Vanessalookingood

60 min on treadmill/5 X Week

ChiliBeans

I walk to and from work every day and go home for lunch. It's about 3 miles per day. I also try to lift 5 days a week if not more as well as cardio. Either an hour class or 20-40 minute run. This month I'm trying to do ab exercises everyday. If you google ab challenges for the month you can find something to try out.

Shells918

Exercise videos 6 days a week, 40-60 minutes per day. I just started a 30 day squat and plank challenge too.

niaacrush2000

At what time do you do these exercise?

ForecasterJason

I try to do some walking pretty much every day (I average about 10,000 steps a day). Some days I do some strength training as well as more vigorous cardio (like jogging). Right now my schedule allows me to split my walking up throughout the day.

aashwill

I run to and from work. Sometimes I ride my bike to and from work. That is 5-6 days a week. If I am not working I will run for fun and/or ride my bike for errands. Working exercise into my commuting is the easiest way for me to stay active.

Ws2016

30 min of cardio, either elliptical or running and stair climbing. Weights every other. Walk the dog sfor a mile but that's leisurely.

47Jacqueline

I do different things. I'm very active. Sometimes that means a lot of walking. Sometimes I am strength training in the gym and taking a cardio class. Sometimes I do a long bike ride or use my scooter.

Yo have to figure out what you like to do and then do that.
