Totally Not Fit.
Monday - 30 min with the trainer
Tuesday - Kickboxing - 75 min
Wednesday - 30 min on the treadmill
Thursday - Kickboxing - 75 min
Friday - Sun - I REALLY need to work on these days. I need at LEAST one more day of running and one more day of strength training.
My Goal is also to get 10,000 steps a day - need to get much better at hitting that every day.0 -
Run 50-70 miles a week. Weights 4 or 5 days a week.0
-
i run a 3 day split. ... meaning i will run for 3 days and take a day off. on that day off i will hit cardio at the gym. i lift... HEAVY.... 4 days a week. my idea of fun is working out and i am a personal trainer.0

Weights 4-5 days/week + three 30 minute sessions of jogging/jump rope/walking/biking/etc. Try to toss a day of yoga in there as well if I can.
I don't know how "fit" I am at the moment (most people can dance around me in a run) but I'm a lot stronger than I used to be.0 -
Fit? I don't know. Strong, yes!
I lift compounds + accessory work 3 days a week, take a step class on Sundays, and usually a HIIT workout once a week. Sometimes a Zumba class on Fridays as well, depending on my schedule.
I want to consume the calories of at least a lightly active person, so I walk the kids to and from school most days (about an hour all told) and use my elevate Wii balance board for a light step routine when watching TV two or three times a week. It's also motivation to clean, pull weeds, mow the lawn, etc. I'd never log it as exercise, but it lets me eat a bit more each day.0 -
I'm "fit-ish," maybe.
3 days/week of cardio; usually consist of a treadmill and/or arc-trainer. I usually do about 40-50 minutes, BUT sometimes have to cut it short and do 20-30 mins.
2 days of strength-training; usually takes me about 45-60 minutes, and I'll usually walk on those days too.
I also have 2 little kids, so I'm all over the place with them.0 -
Run 4 x week (anywhere up to 50km/wk if I'm training for race)
Weights 2 or 3 x weekly
Rowing (indoor) 3 x 10,000m weekly
Cycling - indoor at least 1 weekly over winter, summer commute to work (19km each way) 2 or 3 x weekly
My longest race distance so far is a half-marathon & sprint distance triathlon0 -

Usually its an hour of cardio ( treadmill, hiit, incline, jog, sprint), aerobic dancing high impact! Then a dvd right now im doing 30 day shred. This is usually a 5x a week thing then one day i focus more on strength then one rest day.
Yes i Feel im Fit.0 -
I'm not fit by any means, but trying each day. I limit my calories to 10x my goal weight each day (220 lb goal = 2200 calories a day.) If I go over, I go walking or biking to work off those excess calories. For instance today my body said it wanted about 600 calories over my daily goal, so tonight I hit the bike trails for almost an hour. Last night I walked off about 170 excess calories. This is unscheduled exercise and is in addition to my regular routine.
My regular workout routine is static and is as follows:
M: Lower body/Core Tabata, squats and dead lifts
W: Upper body Tabata, pull-ups and dips
F or Sa: Sprint Tabata
Hope this helps! I love it because it's fairly easy to stick with and is working well for me so far.0 -
Wendler 5/3/1 + accessory lifts
Monday - Tuesday - Thursday - Friday
I normally do 8 minutes of rowing before my lifts.
I'm getting stronger every day. And I do feel fit.0 -

Mon - group class then 30 min cardio
Tues- beginners Zumba then three rounds strength training
Wed- beginners yoga and 30-45 min cardio
Thurs - three rounds strength training
Fri - hour cardio
Sat - off day
Sun - three rounds strength training
Will be adding in swimming one to two days a week on non ST days0 -
I'd consider myself reasonably fit.
MWF I run Strong Curves, it's a full body routine, but different exercises each workout .
TTh I run/walk maybe some HIIT (that's been awhile, though). Sometimes an extra run on a Saturday or an evening.
I've done 5 5ks and a 10k with another 5k coming up on Thanskgiving, this year as well.0 -
I feel I am fit, but am looking to achieve athlete level fitness.
Current workout plan is 4 days of lifting a week (just started Wendler 5:3:1) and 2 days a week of cardio (running).0 -
I'm not necessarily "fit" but I am definitely fitter than when I started a few months ago!
I do bootcamp M/W/F and run T/Th/Su. I will probably cut back on the running and add in some strength training within the next couple weeks.0 -
4 runs totaling around 35 miles per week (mostly aerobic distance, some Fartlek/tempo for LT or anaerobic threshold)
3 days (sometimes post-run) of sets of push-ups, pull-ups, dips, planks and stretching
1 day of Ashtanga Yoga (video in my living room)
I'd say I'm moderately fit. My race times are usually in the top 30% of my age group, and I can max an Army PT test at the 18-21 standards.0 -
Tabata, biking, yoga, weights. More biking. Walking....love the walking. Oh. And more bike.
I have a tendancy to belt out singing while I bike. :laugh: :laugh: :bigsmile: (seriously)
So ya, consider myself fit.
Tho I can't do a 325lb deadlift like Sarauk2sf !!! :noway: :noway:0 -
7 days a week half hour work out to a dvd0

A typical week may look something like this:
Monday--am circuit training video, pm strength training or circuit with incline run at the gym
Tuesday--am circuit training video, pm off or run/walk 1-2 miles
Wednesday--am yoga or cardio, pm strength training or circuit with incline run at the gym
Thursday--am circuit training video, pm off or run/walk 1-2 miles
Friday--am circuit training video, pm off
Saturday--rest day or a video, walking dogs
Sunday--run 3-5 miles, walking dogs
I feel pretty fit. I can do over 100 push-ups a day, in sets of 20 or 25, and can do sets of 5 pull-ups. My run time has improved from last year, but my mileage is down because of a more strength-based focus.0
