    Pretty much a mix of everything in moderation...some heavy lifting, some high rep "pump" lifting, bodyweight exercises/calisthenics, any form of LISS (more so for recovery & meeting minimum daily activity goals). Fast pace is a must

    Haven't delved much into yoga, plyometrics, or HIIT but I'm sure there would be enjoyable aspects of these as well

    Thanks for all the tips guys!
    In the summer I walk ALOT! But now that’s it’s winter I’m struggling. So far I’ve been using a fitness app with workouts that are from 7-15 mins and just been trying to do 30 mins 3 to 5 days a week currently. Just for something!
    Really want to make exercise a routine because I know it’s good for my body and it makes me feel better just really hard when I only get a hour to myself every day!

    I enjoy my runs, I enjoy Strong Lifts 5x5, I enjoy using the rowing machine. That is why I do them. I really don't like the assisted pull up machine but do it anyway because you have to practice what you cannot do.

    Do your kids own xbox? There are a lot of interactive exercise videos for xbox. That is how I started with Zumba. I would do 30 minutes 3xs per week. You can use the classes already programmed in or you can make up your own.

    You should look into Beach Body on Demand. They've put their entire catalog of workout programs online (there are hundreds of different courses), to create sort of a "Netflix for workouts". You can get it for $39 a quarter or the best price of $99 a year. There are a ton of different programs that you should be able to find one that fits your needs. I do a MMA themed workout called Core de Force, and my wife uses it to do dance themed workouts. More than worth it for us, even though I also train at an in person gym.

    I love weightlifting. The only exercise I dislike and feel like is a chore is situps. For me, I feel bad taking a day off, I find setting up a playlist of your favorite tunes really gets the blood pumping.

    Running, nothing like listening to some good music and jamming out while knocking out the miles! Hiking is also really fun, and would be a great activity for the kids. They could have a lot of fun learning about nature 😊

    Love a good hike but unfortunately here in bc Canada it’s already snowing like crazy and I have to wait till March to go again!
    So unfortunately things outdoors are kind of out of the question.

    Sounds like it's time for skiing.

    Sort of in between right now. Places to hike are too slick to hike, but not enough snow for skiing. I can still run where I live, but anything in the hills is questionable.

    Fitness Blender is a good, free resource for workout at home options. You can do a search based on what equipment you need from no equipment to kettlebells to weights. You can also search based on the amount of time you have and your current fitness level. I also love cardio kickboxing!
