    7 days a week for at least an hour. Run every day, strength train at night. No rest days, I can't do a rest day or I feel like I've failed & will not take it up again. Been like that for 7 months. Works for me :)

    I work exercise into every activity I do, just put a little extra effort into whatever you're doing and you keep your metabolism up and running all day :flowerforyou:

    That's like me. I don't do 'formal' workouts. I walk to work - 30 min round trip 5 days/week. On weekends I'm normally out doing something, hiking or walking or the like. I am considering adding a zumba class just for fun but haven't decided yet.

    No less than three per week at the gym. I try to sneak in a forth if I can, but three minimum for an hour each day.

    On off days, I still try to get in body resistance stuff like push-ups, sit-ups, etc.

    I started waiting tables, so that's active even when i don't have a chance to actually go to the gym.

    I do aim to be purposely active every day even if it's me just dancing around my room

    If I said 6 days a week..I would be lying..it's almost always 7...no matter how hard I try...I can't sit still for a rest day...:blushing:

    I only take a rest day if something really is preventing me from working out, and 2x/week I have 2 a days.

    Lifting 3x/week, running 4x/week, and boxing, yoga, or plyometrics 2x/week.

    I've just stepped up from two yoga classes per week and a swim in the sea once a week to include three body resistance and dumbell sessions per week (in my dungeon training cell - my garage), two abdominal workouts and my usual yoga and sea swimming. Sea swimming also includes a twenty minute barefoot run on the beach or sea front to warm up enough to enter the sea comfortably.

    It's a new thing for me re-introducing body resistance and dumbell exercises to increase lean muscle mass and metabolism to burn fat more efficiently.

    I also cycle to work on three days of the working week: 4miles total on two days and one 18 miles return trip, and try to get a 15mile cycle ride in at the weekend; weather permitting.

    Oh - I rest on Sunday!

    Depends how you count exercise. I walk 3 mile 5 times a week but I don't count those as exercise days. My only 'real' exercise is the climbing I do once a week and the sporadic (I know I need to not be sporadic, I know) weight training I do a couple of times a week.

    I do about 6 days:

    Tae Kwon Do = 2 days @ 2.5 hours
    Running = 1 day @ 45 minutes
    Cycling = 2 days @ 40 minutes
    Strength training = 1 day @ 30 minutes
    Total for the week is roughly 4 and a half hours

    I always have Fridays off because that is the day I normally hang out with mine and my sister's family hang out and we eat what we want.

    3-6 days a week just depending on what I have going on. Sometimes it is split up to-I may do a workout dvd in the morning and then go for a run in the evening. Sometimes I have a non stop day and just don't get anything in.
