What is your fitness or workout routine???

inufan4evar

Hey everyone! I was just curious to know what everyone's exercise routines were? It's always fun to know how everyone does their own routines!

NorthCascades

Ride a bike a lot. Hike in the mountains. Swim in lakes in the summer and cross country ski in the winter. Lift heavy things on my lunch break, and then put them down.

thelegendofsakura89

Lift heavy stuff 2x a week
Muay Thai 2-3x a week
A couple mile run once or twice a week.

sardelsa

I lift 4x per week... 3 days full body with glute focus and 1 day glutes only.
I also do two days of cardio and one yoga session per week.

RunnerGrl1982

Get up early in the morning before work and run 4 days during the week w/a longer run completed on the weekend for a total of 5 days running and two rest days.

TrishSeren

2-3 days a week lifting, full body focus every time.
2 days a week I walk 5km

I shoot for 2 hours of walking daily. Not necessarily all at once; if I have errands to run, I'll do them on foot as opposed to taking transit. And I will sometimes go out of my way to pick stores that are further off. I live in a city blessed with numerous library branches, and books can be returned to the branch of choice (not necessarily the branch from which the book was signed out). I will sometimes go to a branch an hour away, just to shove a return in the slot. Or I'll walk down a street and see where it goes.

Currently, I'm training for a 5K. So, three days a week, I do walk-run intervals. Sometimes, I'll curtail the 2-hour walks, sometimes I'll keep doing them, depending on how much time I've got.

Strength-training happens in my basement, five days a week. I alternate between lower body and upper body/core days. I also have a fitness glider down there for days when the weather doesn't permit a walk.

I run and bike on alternating days. I take a rest day each week. Normal bike rides are about 20 miles, runs about 3. I’ll do one longer run or bike ride (usually not both) on the weekend.
I make sure to get 10,000 steps per day. I started using kettlebells this summer a couple if days each week.

My husband rolls his eyes at my "routine" but it's working for me. 10k+ step goal every day (most of which I end up getting by jogging on a mini trampoline while watching a movie or tv show) and squats. I'll be adding push ups to the squats and bouncing in about a week and a half... I think. Id have to double check on how many dad I have left on my intro to squats challenge.

Down to 172 from 184 in June and I'm finding muscles where I didn't know I had any. 😄

I'm taking it slow but loving the process.

kami3006

At the moment: 3 days full body lifting and 2+ days of running and/or elliptical as per my mood (helps with my depression) and usually pilates once or twice per week.

Duck_Puddle

Back before I had the brilliant idea to do a marathon, I ran, did some lifting, a bunch of other workouts (rowing, whatever burpees, KB stuff, etc are,) a touch of HIIT (usually air bike or sprints), heavy bag work, yoga, biking, hiking, swimming, all kinds of things. One rest day and one “fun” day (biking/hiking) per week. My plan was the work of my wonderful coach.

Now that I’m in my last few weeks of marathon training before taper—I run. All running, all the time. There’s just no time for anything else. If I can manage to fit in a lifting session or two, I will, but it’s definitely not a priority right now (and it’s incredibly difficult to fit any significant lifting around a bunch of long, longer and longest runs without the lifting and the runs suffering). Plus one yoga session per week (after my longest run). One rest day per week. My current plan is the work of Satan.

I really do love running. But I will be happy to return to a more well-rounded program.

TavistockToad

I'm currently training for a half, so running 3/4 x a week, cycling 2 x a week, strength training 2 x a week

sijomial

On average I cycle about 100 miles a week and strength train 3 times a week.
Currently training for a closed roads Century event.

jemhh

Lift weights 4x/wk. On days I lift I aim for 8k steps. On days I don't, I aim for 10k. I've been cycling 2x/wk lately and that usually substitutes for some of the steps.

jjpptt2

Ride bikes as much as I can.
Run when I can't ride.
Play some basketball on my lunch break.
Think about lifting.

DancingMoosie

I usually do a cardio video in the morning before work, lift 2-3 days after work, run 2-3x per week. During the summer, I add in 30 min lap swim 2-3x weekly, lifting heavy gets kind of sporadic to none, walk instead of run...

nooshi713

My schedule changes so much with work so it varies but my goals are usually one hike per week (usually 5 miles or so), weight lift twice a week, and just try to stay active and get lots of steps in. On days I go to the gym for lifting weights, I also do some cardio.

aokoye

Bike 3-4 days a week, run 3 days a week (typically on the same days I bike), physical therapy 1x a week, rowing 2 days a week, and I should be swimming at least once a week. I should also be strength training at least once a week.

AnnPT77

Row (on water; it's summer) M-W-F-Sa, spin Tu-Th, ride my bike randomly, lift when I can talk myself into it (because I don't love it), which is sporadic.

Less volume in winter because the river gets all crunchy, so machine rowing a couple of times a week, a little indoor walking (outdoor when whether's not truly awful), a little swimming if I have to, more self-threats about lifting and slightly better compliance.

rainbow198

I do cardio daily - walking mostly, any where from 2 - 6 miles at different speeds and intensity depending on the day (brisk, moderate on active rest days, jogging intervals etc.)

Strength training 4 days a week with upper/lower splits with a variety of workouts such as using my bodyweight, weights, resistance bands, Pilates on my Reformer and TRX.

Sometimes I'll take classes such as barre, Body Pump and pole fitness as well.

I really enjoy my routine. I never get bored and I'm very pleased with my results/progress.

MikePfirrman

This week was roughly 55K meters on the rower (around 70/30 mix of easy to hard) along with another hour or so on an Assault Bike along with heavy KB swings, pushups and military presses. This is more or less most weeks for me, though I've thought about incorporating 5X5 lifts soon. I'm obsessed with breaking 7 minutes on the 2K on the rower so most all my training is geared toward that -- no small feat for a guy in his mid-50s that isn't built for rowing. I'm relatively short, not too powerful and have shorter arms/legs - pretty much the "anti-rowing" body.

shaf238

Been sharing my workout routines all week. Send me a fr if anyone is interested

hroderick

walk on treadmill, 3miles, 1 hour, every day. watch tv on phone, manage heartrate with incline

DebTavares

I do Les Mills classes anywhere from 5-7 days per week. I aim for 7, but it doesn't usually work out that way as things come up and sometimes I feel like I just need to rest so I do. The classes that I do are Body Combat, Body Step and Strong Zumba. I find step the most challenging. I also highly doubt these classes are burning the amount of calories they claim to be, but I know they are burning something and are fun to boot so I do them.

Evamutt

I get most of my exercise from walking. We have 6 dogs- I walk 3 for the long walk2+miles 6 days/wk. I walk/jog/squat in place when they stop, then I walk my others who are older. I get most of my 10,000 + steps in this way. gym is 2-3 days/wk. cardio & machines for arms,chest,abs etc

born_of_fire74

I do a half hour of crossfit at a gym followed by a half hour of yoga on weekday mornings. My dog, who comes to work with me, is bonkers unless she gets two walks a day so we do 2.5kms at lunch and then another 4.5kms in the evening. I have a fair bit of free time at my job so, depending on how the day goes, I do body weight strength training and/or jump rope. I also just got a balance board that I stand on while at the computer which is more difficult and a better workout than I expected. Saturdays and Sundays are my days off—I do as little as possible LOL

mkculs

Run/walk about 4-5 miles every other day right now; paddling, walking, sometimes hiking on other days in the summer. With winter, I'll probably run 2-3 times a week and cross-country ski on weekends, and look for a gym with a good rowing machine b/c I want to get into rowing.

bootyrubsandtacos

I alternate between doing YT videos and walking up steep hills around my neighborhood 6 days a week. I’m a big fan of Jessica smith and Adrian Bryant’s videos

kayak4water

Watch dirty movies while eating Cheetos.

Also swim 4x-5x a week. I love to work on swimming butterfly, because it feels beautiful when it clicks, no one else does it, and freestyle wouldn't hold my interest for 45 minutes. Bike 4x a week in the spring, summer, and fall. Paddle outrigger canoe 2-3x per week. Walking in the rainy season

robot_potato

Fart around with weights 5-6 times a week(after the kids are finally asleep)
Bike ride when/if i have time
Hiking when i make time
Walk to/from work(hour-ish walk) when time allows (at least once a week)
