    Usually 4-5 days/week, 3 days of elliptical and 1 of treadmill. Sometimes 6 if I can coax myself onto the treadmill Saturday AND Sunday.

    Days that I go over my calories are almost always workout days tho, lol.

    I'm working gout 6 out of 7 days for a month long challenge right now, but when I'm out of this competitive mode I'm going back to having 2-3 rest days a week. It's important to lgive your body a break so taking weekends off (while still walking the dog and running errands) will be perfect.

    Today was my first "official" day at the gym. My trainer told me to do resistance training 3 days a week, never back to back, and do 20-20 minutes of cardio ATLEAST 6 days a week, preferably 7. He told me I should be in the gym every day (that being because the gym is where I chose to do my workouts, not because a person HAS to go to the gym). So today I did resistance and cardio, tomorrow just cardio, Sunday both, Monday cardio, Tuesday both, etc. and so on.

    4-5 times a week I do an exercise video for about 35 mins. I also incorperate some core training with my exercise ball and exercises with 20lbs weights. That's about all I care to do! Not a big fan or working out, but I make myself do it anyways.

    Now that i'm back on my grind i'm in the gym 5-6 days a week. At first i would listen to people that would say..."oh don't over do it, and burn yourself out, if you do you will give up" *blank stare* :indifferent: only thing that did to me was make me lazy and slack off because i didn't want to "burn out" yeah right....any excuse not to go....i had to put in my mind that it is a part of my daily things to do...like get up, go to work in order to pay bills...well now i know i have to get up and workout also in order to stay alive and healthy. 7 days a week do something active no less than 30 minutes a day, which i do. I kick it in the gym no less than 60 minutes when i'm there...good hard workout days 90 minutes. Good Luck~Let's Go!
