I run in the morning, lift for 60-75 min in the afternoon then hop on the star-climber, take the dogs for a 30 min walk. Everyday. I take no days off unless the gym is closed. But I double my run and walk.
YOU LOOK AMAZING!!!

Right now I am doing the Gwen Roe Extreme Workout, Friday through Tuesday night. I take Wednesday off and Thursdays I walk, mow the yard with the push mower, or any number of activities that will get me up and moving for an hour or longer.

Great topic.... I'd like to also know how many minutes or hours people workout for..
Me... I did Just Dance and Michael Jackaon -Wii everyday except Sundays for the last 60 days.... I started at 3 hours daily for approximately the first week or so because I was slow, out of shape and learning the moves.... Recently, I dropped it down to 2 1/2 hrs (with Callanetcs -resistance body weight exrcises). Friends and family were worried I would burn out and/or platuea even though I use to be a dancer (professional private lessons from age of 5-16, until I injuried my knees. I will gradually cut it down to 1 1/2 - 2 hrs top per day.... On Sundays, I usually clean and/or play Wii games with my hubby and kids, it is my "rest" day from working out, but I still try to do something to burn calories... Once it gets nicer outside, I will incorporate more activities, such as walking, biking and swimming...
This Monday, (4/22/13) I switched it up a bit and now plan on doing Zumba DVD's everyday which include, Activate, Exhilarion, Rush, Ripped, Mix and Concert.... Thus, I am reducing my workouts to 1 1/2 - 2 hours daily, if I do 60 mins of Ripped with the Zumba toning sticks on an every other day bases... I LOVE to workout now because I LOVE to dance and it doesn't feel like a chore or exercise... It's a BLAST!!!!
GL everyone.... Keep go moving!!!0 -
