    You need new friends - even though lots of my friends run, i see some great descriptions of their runs that give me a giggle!
    (I'm boring though - my exercise entry from this morning reads: Run 6:59 30 minutes. Dull, I know!)

    I'm surprised no one has mentioned racquetball. It's so much fun that it's addictive, and it burns a ton of calories. Only catch is you have to find someone to play with you. Wish I had a partner. :grumble:

    "Such-and-such burned 40,000 calories jogging their *kitten* off!"
    "Mr. Six-pack did an infinitely larger quantity of sit ups than you'll ever do-- for fun!"

    C'mon guys, everybody's doing squats and lunges these days. JOGGING IS SO MAINSTREAM.

    What are some fun, quirky, unorthodox, (semi)ridiculous, and especially NEW workouts for me to try?
    Most recently I've delved into belly dancing. It's kiiinda unique. Better than crunches and planks.

    Yes, I am a mainstream type of person, I like running, it burns lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of calores :)

    how many calories? LOTS!!! :heart:

  • I'm pretty mundane Monday - Friday, alternating amongst yoga, weight training, spinning, and running.

    Weekends are another story: Rock climbing, mountain climbing, snowshoeing, hiking, surfing (if on vacation)... anything that gets me outside! Snowshoeing is one that you could pick up without any experience or skill at all and is a huge calorie burn. Of course, you need snow. Not sure where you live but that's not a problem for me with Mount Rainier in my back yard!

    Haha I feel the same! Zumba is really fun. My husband and I just started the George St Pierre DVD series. S you workout like the UfC guys do. Only doing it because my husband cage fights and thought it might be a good change Because my treadmill is getting boring. It's really fun and works body parts I didn't know I had :) good luck!

    My friends enjoy it when I burlesque...or go figure skating.

    Well, maybe just the burlesque for the boys...I don't know that they're all that impressed with the skating.

    Run with one leg only. Do handstand push ups. One arm pull ups. Jump rope with a resistance band. Reverse sit ups where you bring your taint as close to your face as possible. Tantric yoga. Sweat to the Oldies with Richard Simmons. The variations of classic routines are only limited to the extent of your imagination.

    Apparently cleaning house is a popular workout?? So many people log the 3 min of sweeping or 12 min of laundry they did......and wow the burn is like 7 calories, enough for a stick of gum or two. If you did that for like 12 hours you could have icecream or something really good.

    Ha, too funny. I logged housework before, only because I swept floors & mopped, took out trash, etc... & was huffing and puffing for like, 3 hours! Also raking leaves when there was like 30 bags of leaves when I finished. I would not bother with 5 or 10 minutes of anything. And laundry? Please!

    I feel yah, I get so bored working out with the same ole routines. Here's what I've ben doing to make it work.

    If you have the time and money (I no longer do LOL) FENCING between the suit and the physical labor that is intense.

    If you can find one, seriously ask a wrestling coach. If you have someone around your weight 3min round of wrestling is hands down the most rewarding, most fun, and best work out I have ever done.

    But here is what real life for me turned into I hope it can help.

    Mon: Youtube Zumba/Hip hop/bellydancing or whatever is fun. 30 min- after my last routine I will typically hit the deck (finish by just kind of falling into my mat.), sweating and kinda dead. (It gets better if you have a few favorites and I plug it into my tv for more music and better visual help.

    Tues: 10 mins - or 3 youtubes of dance followed by: 3 rounds 10 Burpees (jumping jack push ups) 20 squats, 30 sit ups, and 40 bicycles. total time is like 25 min

    I always hate the hell out of this one after I'm done but I can see results after like 1 1/2 weeks. Seriously the key is really awesome music, I like kinda 90's dance, but house music and industrial kick so much *kitten*. Also Like Rob Zombie Dragula go ahead and try not to do a crazy work out to that. Even if your not a fan I turn into a monster to that.

    I do a free day, normally wednesday.

    Thursday take it easy with Wii fit Yoga ( I unlocked the poses and do one round of all of them), then Hula-hoop, I swear by hula hooping, 6 minutes each direction will roast those cals. Then finish up with boxing.

    Friday is free choice, I like dancing the most it's what I have the most fun with.
    Wow! This sounds like alot of fun! I like diversity and I LOVE to dance, so I'm going to copy your routine (except for the burpees as I have back problems). Thanks for posting!

    Not sure if it's been said but one of my friends swears by circus workouts! Says they're amazing...

    As soon as Lifebooker or Groupon or LivingSocial has a deal on a circus class, I'm there! :happy:
