Ladies - current routine?

Options
I was wondering what everyone's current lifting routine is? Mine is minimal at the moment:

Lat pull down
Deadlift
Reverse crunches
Squat
Overhead press

Mon/Wed/Fri

    I found Jamie Eason's Live Fit Trainer last year and after I was done with that I just kinda mimicked my plan after hers. When I feel bored I start it over again. You should google it... it's awesome.

    Currently, though:

    Mon - Chest/Tri
    Run
    Tue - Back/Bi
    Yoga
    Wed- Shoulders/abs
    Run
    Thurs- Legs
    Fri - Run
    Elliptical or walk depending on how leg day went haha
    Sat- Complete rest
    Sun - long run

    :) Training for races knocks my lifting out of whack a bit.

    Monday:

    allpro beginner lifting routine with mods for dumbbells


    Tuesday:

    running, same distance as longest run previous week


    Wednesday:

    same lifting routine as monday


    Thursday:

    running, distance increased 1/4 mile from Tuesday run


    Friday:

    same lifting routine as wednesday


    Saturday:
    LONG strenuous hike usually, this weekend I think it will be bike riding all over angel island :)


    Sunday:
    running, distance increased by 1/2 mile from Tuesday run


    as you can see I have it planned out for 7 days a week but this almost never happens that way. I just try and make sure I increase mileage in my running and do lifting as often as I can. I do take rest days but I don't plan for them. pretty much if life gets in the way of exercise it's not the end of the world since I could probably use a rest anyway. YMMV.

    I visit bodybuilding.com when I am looking for a new or adjusted workout. You can search by gender, age, and goals and see a variety of plans developed by a knowledgeable person that would match your criteria. Lots of good educational articles there as well.
