Hi
I do 3-4 sessions a week of:
30 min HIIT
20 mins resistance using free weights/own body weight moves
Sometimes incorporating the Vibro step machine0 -
Play tennis 2-3 times per week
ix7 incline trainer 2-3 times per week
Thera-bands and light freeweights for my shoulder strength.0 -
I don't work out really, I try to stay active during the day and let the nutrition do the majority of the work.
I park 10 mins walk from the school on the run so we both get some exercise.
If I get time for a coastal walk I take that, I love walking and can do many miles on some water, cheese and nuts
Today I've been working in the house yard clearing trees and mowing so this has been my main activity.
No routine for me, I do some press-ups when I feel like it but don't push it if I just don't feel in the mood ...0 -

Right now, I'm taking advantage of the pool. I walk, jog and use water weights and resistance gloves. that'll all change in September and i'll be back to the elliptical machine and walking.0

My perfect week is:
Monday - Walk dog 20 mins, 10 min walk warmup on the track, 50 mins weight lifting, 30 mins elliptical (no hands, no program)
Tuesday - Walk dog 20 mins, 10 min walk warmup on the track, 30 mins elliptical (variable program, moving arm posts)
Wednesday - Walk dog 20 mins, 10 min walk warmup on the track, 50 mins weight lifting, 30 mins elliptical (no hands, no program)
Thursday - Walk dog 20 mins, 10 min walk warmup on the track, 30 mins elliptical (variable program, moving arm posts)
Friday - Walk dog 20 mins, 10 min walk in pool, 30 min swim laps, 10 min walk in pool
Saturday - Walk dog 20 mins, housework
Sunday - off
I'm only able to fit that whole schedule in every other week or so. Right now I miss dog walks because of the heat and I don't lift twice a week because I gotta be home to listen to the baseball game. But otherwise, I stay pretty true to the schedule.0 -
I'm actually finding I have more energy to workout than I thought I would!!!. I ran 1 mile yesterday. I hope to slowly work my way back up to 3. :-).
I weight lift as well. Happy to see so many of you are able to perform so well on keto. Gives me hope! LOL0 -
I don't necessarily have a set routine, but I try for weight training 2 times a week and it usually takes anywhere from 20-45 minutes.
Lots of compound exercises (pushups, squats, dips, lunges, pullups, rows, deadlifts, pullovers, clean & press, kettlebell swings, kettlebell snatches, etc), since I like to be more efficient with my time.
Cardio, I do some endurance runs (usually not more than 2-3 miles and usually only once a week, if that) and sprint work. Endurance runs usually 25-30 minutes, 35 if I do 5k. Sprint /agility work (skipping, sprinting drills, side shuffles, etc) anywhere from 20-40 minutes (a lot of resting, ha!).
Cross-training I use the independent stair machine or occasionally swim. Usually only a half hour.
I walk at lunch and walk my dog in the evenings, when it's not too hot or raining (though, usually too hot, we're in a draught).
I also play rugby, so when our fall season starts next week it's 2 practices a week + games on Saturdays, or 3 practices a week if no game sometimes. More sprint work! This is why I'm not into endurance running, everything I do is sprinting.
Low-carb does affect my lifting and power abilities, I don't do induction-level low-carb. My activity level is too high right now. After rugby starts again, I can carb cycle and have some moderate carb days (bananas, sweet potatoes, or rice a few days a week).0
