    I work FT, am a FT grad student, and I'm very active politically. I haven't had time to exercise for months. When I have time again, hiking and trail running.

    I walk on the treadmill 5 to 6 times per week for 30 to 45 minutes (brisk pace) and also lift weights for my arms (10 minutes every second day) and do toning exercises for my legs (including squats, deadlifts and lunges with weights) also every second day.
    Seeing what you all are doing I dont know if I am doing enough!

    I try to run every other day. Now that the weather is improving, I hope to hit this much more consistently. And walk on the opposite days.

    I try to do strength 3x/wk (You Are Your Own Gym, which is a body weight workout and pretty good to start with)

    I just put this on reserve at the library. I am so done with my dirty gym and if I can do this at home all the better!! :)

    If I can get my back fixed, my goal is to eventually be able to do TRX exercises.

    I despise TRX....

    I combine exercise with generally being active.
    I get at least 10,000 steps every day.
    I run 5k a few times a week.
    I ride or walk to work every day. ( a couple of miles each way)
    I lifted weights for about 20 years, but am taking a break from that.
    I now do power yoga 3 times a week and pilates 2 times a week.

    I take HIIT bootcamp classes 3x per week and try to get either a workout video or zumba in on Saturday Mornings. Throughout the week I teach 15 dance classes so I get a LOT of stretch time in and other various exercises depending on what genre I'm teaching.

    ^^ on top of the classes I have a 40hr/wk job. I've become a stranger at the gym :( When the dance studio isn't in session (over the summer) I love to take my bike out and hit the trail or go to the gym on rainy days.

    I run 4-6 times a week between 3-10 miles. I'm one of those strange folks that really, really enjoys running. I used to go to the gym more often (weights are my first love, fitness-wise), but I fell off that wagon for a bit, so I am looking forward to getting back to lifting some heavy iron tonight. Other than that, bodyweight stuff, walking, swimming... as much as I can whenever I can. I love being active.

    I lift 3 days a week (Strong lifts) and cardio 2 days for now (in the winter months it's treadmill...mix of jogging, walking, incline walks, etc.). When it's nice enough I pull the bike out and from time to time we hit up the kayaks. Haven't done that in a while, but am hugely looking forward to the warmer weather for that reason alone :)
