What do you do on your Days off from C25K?

I was just wondering what everyone is doing on their off days from C25K. I was walking or cleaning (I clean a few houses on the side as well as my own house which burns lots of calories!). Just today I started Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred (and it kicked my butt a bit!).

I know it's good to rest, but I also know that I have to keep some sort of routine going or I'm going to cave! Just curious what you're doing, if anything, on your off days! :)

Keep up the good work, everyone!

    Before I tried to do zumba on my days off, but this time I have been doing my zumba classes and C25K sessions on the same days. I do C25K on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and then Zumba on Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday and sometimes on Tuesday or Thursday too. Sunday is my one true day off

    No wonder you've lost so much weight, girl! You're a busy girl! :)

    I do C25K on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. I go to the gym Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Saturday is my one day off. That being said today I didn't make it to the gym. I had a bad night and didn't sleep well and woke up with a bad headache.

    I do Chalean Extreme weight lifting program, but as I start to run further and the weights get heavier I will probably have to take a few more rest days. Will see how it goes..

    I must admit--I REALLY wish I could do Zumba, but my coordination is severely lacking! I wish I had more time and money to go to the gym and work with a personal trainer, but that's not in my schedule or budget, so I guess I'll stick with what I'm doing! :) Whatever it takes, right?! :) I just know that I MUST exercise to lose weight, so I must keep movin! :)

    the DVD strength programs aren't quite as good as having a personalized program but they are still pretty good - some of them anyway. If I was going to pick one up I think I'd get Chalean extreme

    I attend boot camp twice a week - circuit training whilst someone shouts at you! The other 2 days of the week are recovery. That's the plan anyway!!
