    I do 15 minutes of Tai Cheng (Neural Reboot) each morning to keep my joints flexible (I have a hip that likes to lock up) 7 days a week.

    I do 30 minutes of Jillian Michaels Body Revolution which alternates between top/bottom/cardio 6 days a week.

    On pretty days, I do about 2 miles walking with my "Zombies, RUN!" app.

    Most of my exercise is with a mini-bike by my desk, usually an hour at a time, 6 or 7 days a week. It's both consistent and sustainable, which makes it work for me. (I'm a caregiver and work at home.)

    I also do my own yard work, which can add up during Florida summers.
    I've just returned to running, but nothing habitual there yet.
    I lift with hand weights but irregularly, depending on how much carpal tunnels in both wrists are acting up.

    I do bootcamp/crossfit classes and weight lifting

    I started back going back to the gym and dieting about 5 months ago. So far, this is what has worked best for me. I do a 3 day weight split comprised of compound supersets. Each day takes anywhere from 15-60 minutes. Sometimes more if i'm not lifting alone. I'm spending some time on maintenance now, so i'm not too focused on losing weight at the moment. But below is my regime:

    Monday: Biceps and Triceps
    Tuesday: HIIT
    Wednesday: Rest day, sometimes some light cardio
    Thursday: Chest, Back and Shoulders
    Friday:HIIT
    Saturday: Legs and Abs
    Sunday: Rest day, sometimes some light cardio

    Just a few accomplishments I've passed while on this routine:
    Lost just over 40lbs which equates to about 8% body fat according to my scale
    Went from 115 to 245 on my bench (repping X 2)
    Went 225 to 405 on deadlift (repping X 4 with wriststraps)
    135 to 315 on squat (repping X 8)


    Just my 2 cents
