    Spartacus Workout (from Men's health web site... it's great for women, too! wifey loves it... arguably more strength than cardio, but if you do it right with 5-10 second breaks it's all-around awesome)

    Trail running / hiking

    Tae Bo

    JustDance (yeah, losing the man card on this one... did I mention I workout with my wife?)

    Your dogs look worn out!

    I love barbel complexes and hiking. I do have one day of torture on the elliptical per week.

    We were! The Polar Vortex pretty much zapped us this winter. Not to mention, they're 11 years old...

    I recently started playing ultimate Frisbee (ultimate). I was a little skeptical of how much cardio it would be. I thought it was just a bunch of people throwing a Frisbee around. To my surprise it is amazing, its a bunch of sprinting and keeping your body moving. Even if you are not that good so long as you keep moving its a great workout. Plus the people i play with are pretty cool!

    Ice skating briskly. I burn so many calories in 45 non-stop minutes it's crazy.

    Power walking with a purpose. I get my arms going, walk on a track so it's a continuous walk and I put some good tunes in my mp3 player. I get a great cardio workout in and the time flies by. In my fastest mile I can walk a little over 4 miles an hour so I'm very close to jogging but with none of the impact.

    Between walking outdoors and using walking dvd's I get in around 3 - 6 miles everyday and I love it!

    Edited to add: Tennis is great as well.

    Welllllll I'm one of those weird people who actually enjoys running, but besides that I love dancing and spinning. I take this cardio dance class at my gym where by the end I am soaked with sweat and truly believe that I am Beyonce. It's awesome.
