    5 times a week. I want boulder shoulders and well rounded glutes so I get up at 5:30am and am in the gym by 6am following a progressive overload program. I love it. I live for my gym time.

    I dont work out like normal people. My working out is actual work.

    Shoveling or large rural laneway.
    Cutting,splitting and stacking firewood.
    Gardening.
    Landscaping.
    Hiking.
    Kayaking etc


    May-September I "workout " every day for at least a few hours. In the winter it's mostly just clearing snow(in the land of snow nonetheless) which takes two of us approx 60-90 minutes.

    I love to HIKE too.....especially early morning! :)

    My current workout schedule:
    • Monday -- 3 mile run in am; upper body & core strength in pm
    • Tuesday -- Leg Day strength in am
    • Wednesday -- 3 mile run in am
    • Thursday -- 3 mile run in am; upper body & core strength in pm
    • Friday -- Full body strength in am
    • Saturday -- Long run morning -- anywhere between 5-12 miles
    • Sunday -- active rest day (I'll always hit my 10,000 steps)

    This helps me maintain my 50+ lb weight loss and keeps me in shape for races. I have my fifth half marathon coming up next week. And it's also slowly helping me lose a bit more weight. :)

    Monday : 30min PT, 1 mile fast run, shoulders/arms, tabata and barbell

    Tuesday : 3-4.5 mile run, 30min PT, zumba, legs, insanity boxercise

    Wednesday: 30min sprint session with PT, long run (6-10miles), abs, zumba

    Thursday : 1 mile fast run, bench, 30 min PT, circuits

    Friday : 30min PT, 3 mile hill run, tabata, total body conditioning

    Saturday : 3-4.5 mile run, bootcamp

    Sunday : 1 mile run, stretching and rolling, unless theres a race and then anything from 6-13 ,miles

    But I am training for particular goals, which wont be the same as your goals and I enjoy what I do.
