Currently I do 6 days a week.

Monday and Wednesday I have an hour session with my trainer. We usually do some type of strength or plyometric workout. Sometimes circuit style, sometimes just straight lifting. She keeps it interesting and is always finding new challenges for me.

Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday I go to the gym and to 35 do 50 minutes of cardio. I switch it up among the various machines: stairmill, rowing, treadmill (sometimes intervals and sometimes just an uphill walk), elliptical, and recumbent bike. After cardio I always do a thorough stretch for about 15 to 20 minutes.

Sunday I take a one hour belly dance class.

Mon-Fri I swim 1-1.5 miles freestyle non-stop.

Tue-Thur I've added an hour of lifting in addition to my swim. Two exerercises for all major muscles. 4 sets of declining reps while increasing weight. IE: dumbell bench 12x 50lbs , 10x 60lbs, 8x 70lbs, 6x 80lbs

Take either Sat or Sun off depending on my schedule and swim on the day that isn't resting.

I was doing a Full indoor sprint Triathlon every Thursday but I tweaked my knee and so I'm resting it up. 1/2 mile swim, 13 mile stationary bike, 5k run on track.

10-15 minutes of stretching daily.

Wed - Rest
Thurs - 7-8M run

I also stretch after every workout and use the foam roller several times per week for recovery.

5-6 days a week. Each day is a major compound lift and a few supporting actors. Today was squats, ghr's, dumbbell romanians, couple of leg extensions/curls. I don't really write or do a routine. I rarely do abs or cardio. Just no need unless competing.

Usually I work out 5 - 6 days a week - though I have only set foot in a gym about 3 times in the last year (when I've been staying at a hotel and its raining outside).

My weeks have been looking like this:
3 shorter runs (3 - 6 miles) on weekdays
1 long run (8 - 14 miles) on the weekend
1 or 2 days strength training
1 day walking
1 rest day (with a little bit of walking in there, but that is usually walking to the pub so I don't really count that as exercise!).

I've been training for a half marathon so my runs have been getting longer and longer but they will slow down a bit, maybe only 3 days running for the next few months. My plan for the next little while is:
2 short runs (3 - 8 km) on weekdays
3 days strength training
1 - 2 days walking
1 long run
1 rest day (still going to the pub!)

Hey there,

My goal originally was 3 days per week, however I seem to have stuck with approx. 5 or 6 days per week. I do find I get obsessed with something and then I get really bored of it and need something new and then eventually go back to it. At the moment I am just going to my 24 hour gym and doing a mix of cardio and weights.

100 - 150 calories - Stationary Bike at between 22km/h - 30 km/h
100 calories - Treadmill doing a mix fast walking (7km/h), jogging (9km/h) or running (10/11 km/h).
100 calories - Cross Trainer machine 8km/h - 12 km/h on levels between 5-10.

Weights - focusing on bi ceps, tri ceps, chest, back & legs (basically all over) I usually do anywhere between 4-7 machines.

I also love jogging around the block for approx. 30 mins. I love trying to beat my time. My 30 minute track now takes me 24 minutes! I also wear a heart rate monitor to ensure my calories burnt are correct and that my heart rate is always between 145 - 190.

I also love boxing one-on-one (pads & gloves), doing Body Step, Body Pump, Body Attack, Body Combat & FitBox group classes & playing netball and volleyball team sports when the seasons are right.

I hope this might help!
