    T/TH/Sat - running, normally 3-4 miles, but now training for half marathon so that varies.

    I currently workout six days a week because I'm doing a 10 week kickboxing boot camp. Monday, Wednesday and Friday are our actually kickboxing/cardio days whereas Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday are our resistance training days. We use resistance bands and alternate between upper and lower body.

    I run 2-3 miles, 2-3 times a week.
    I spin about 4x per week. When it's nice out I spin less but do invitational rides or leisure rides of 40+ miles on the weekends.
    Strength training 3-4 times a week. Blend of body weight exercises, free weights, machines.....

    And for fun...depending on the season...I kayak, ice skate, snow shoe, hike, swim....

    I did, trying to do it again, but we're about to move and the holidays happened, etc etc.
    I do workout videos from Crunch that stream on Netflix, cardio and weights at the gym, long walks/jogs throughout my neighborhood, ride my bike to the farm and back (usually I'm out for 1.5 hours maybe more). I also live near Valley Forge so my husband, friends, and parents go hiking there a lot. I like to mix it up or else I get bored and get stuck in a rut.

    i work out 7 days a week. depends on what week i'm on, but some work outs are an hour long, others are as short as 15 min. i'm doing a hybrid schedule with P90X and TurboFire. i'm not using the ones they recommend or one that combines both programs in a week. my thought was really "ultimate" muscle confusion ( which is what tony is big on). so one week of P90X and then one week of TF. so far, i like it. my vanity is starting to get to me though, and i like the visible changes i see with TF!

    with p90x i FEEL stronger and i know i am able to do more push ups, and ab work, and more reps or higher weights, but i don't SEE the changes in my body as much as with the intense cardio of TF. i can visibly see a loss with my pants getting loose...... so, i'm not sure how long i'll stick with week by week. i like to pull doubles some days too. so, i'll probably start adding TF to p90x days.

    my actual schedules mirror the schedules BB sets up for both programs. you can google to find the schedules (i think)....... and typically, i work out at night, around 9p.

    I work out everyday. I do strength training Mon, Wedns and Fri. I do Cardio everyday in the mornings and I walk everyday in theevenings. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing to much but I want to change "ME" so bad that I just keep pushing. I've been doing this since Jan. 24th and to this day I have lost 9 pounds. So that makes me feel good.

    This is my typical schedule...life happens, so schedule adjusts as needed:

    Monday - Either Tae Bo DVD or Mixed Cardio (eliptical/bike/treadmill) at gym (at least 55 minutes)
    Tuesday - 1.5 hours Kung Fu
    Wednesday - 1 hour Kung Fu
    Thursday - Either Tae Bo DVD or Mixed Cardio (eliptical/bike/treadmill) at gym (at least 55 minutes)
    Friday - 1.5 hours Kung Fu
    Saturday and/or Sunday - Try to get at least an hour of an Xbox Kinect type game/workout in with the fam

    In the summer, typically walk 3-5 miles daily M-F as well with the family.

    Eating min of 1200 cals per day...on Kung Fu/Tae Bo days, average is closer to 1450.
