    My Favorite is ZUMBA! I am trying to learn to run, but my feet keep stopping me, I must be doing something wrong. In past I have enjoyed resistance training, hope that is in my near future.

    Yoga. Definitely yoga. I love the extra flexibility I get, plus it really helps me slow my brain down. I also like how versatile it is to fit your fitness needs; right now, because I'm getting back into shape after a year of being sedentary, I'm starting out again with mostly beginner poses with a few favorite intermediate ones I had previously mastered tossed in, but two summers ago when I was hitting the gym every day, I went to these really intense hot yoga classes that were probably, hands down, the most difficult workouts I've ever done in my life.

    Favorite cardio would probably be the elliptical. :D One of my main ways to unwind at the end of the day is by watching fluffy sitcoms on Netflix, so now I just go to the gym instead and watch How I Met Your Mother and Big Bang Theory while burning those sweet, sweet calories. I guess stairmaster and treadmill would fall into here too, but I have bad knees from sports injuries I got when I was younger, so the lower impact for me, the better.

    Kettlebells is my absolute fave, lifting heavy and a little cardio in the same mix does it for me!

    There is a forest about 300 yards from my house, so I will go on 4-5 mile hikes every chance I get.

    If I had to pick just one I'd go with hiking, with swimming as a very close second. Those are probably the only exercises I could do every day. But weather prevents hiking every day and I don't have a pool so I do a variety of exercises. I have DVDs of Zumba and Turbo Fire that I enjoy. I have a treadmill and step that I enjoy when I'm in the mood for something monotonous. I like calisthenics, plyometrics and jumping rope. Sometimes I run or walk, or intervals of both. I have some dumbells I occasionally lift, but not often because I really hate lifting weights.

    Boxing. Zumba. Running and Sex.

    I do a lot of the first two. The second one when the snow melts and/ or the temps are >0C... and the third... well lets just say I burn all my calories from the first three these days. LMAO

    Yoga - bodyweight resistance exercises - swimming and kettlebell (but not at the same time).

    If I was to pick one it would have to be Yoga as it incorporates an amount of each fitness component - cardio, strength, flexibility and balance; emotionally and physically.

    Weight lifting for sure. Also enjoy exercises that use only body weight. I find pilates to be a suprising killer workout too

    My husband got me Just Dance for xBox Kinect for Christmas which is my new favorite! I don't think there is a way to track calories burned, but it is so fun it doesn't feel like exercising. It works your whole body for a good cardio workout. :O)

    Yoga wins hands down. Though my ideal day would be: breakfast, a walk in the woods, snack, 2-3 hour yoga class in the morning, lunch, a long walk in the woods, snack, another 2 hour class, dinner. I think the fact that the meals are included are why I'm on this site...

    I play a lot of soccer. 6-8 hours per week at a minimum, more when the seasons start back up. It's a fantastic workout and you don't even realize you've been running for 2 hours! I also love to work out at 9Round. It's a kickboxing themed workout that is a ton of fun. I also secretly enjoy playing Wii Cheer with my daughters. They think it's great that their dad can cheer with them and it's a pretty good workout too. I just make sure there are no cameras around when we play.
