    Rowing machine, which is actually even more miserable than running, but I love it
    Biking outdoors
    Brazilian jiu jitsu (number 1 for me)
    Kickboxing/muay Thai--pad work, bag work or sparring
    Kettlebell swings
    A vigorous Vinyasa yoga practice

    anything HIIT i would say.

    i agree that running isn't necessairly optimal for weight loss but as far as being physically fit, its not to be ignored

    oh jump rope, i'd jump rope purely for stress relief

    Swimming for me!!! I find I am getting into a zone now and the wall almost surprises me, I haven't run into it yet though. :laugh:
    Can't wait until the water warms up enough for open water swimming, still a few months way :sad: .I do go and spend over an hour swimming in the pool.

    Also biking, skiing, and hiking. And since I live in the mountains hiking is an awesome cardio workout.

    Step Aerobics!

    Can do it in your own living room. Once you have the steps down, you can skip the videos if you want and just buy straight music mixes.

    I also loving rowing, but can't afford a machine and at my old gym from years ago could never use it because they only had one and it kept getting dragged into the "personal trainers only" area.

    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!

    Ultimaaate! Woot-woot!
