      5 days a week usually. Have done 6 before but cut back as I am at goal weight and started getting tired. I probably am not eating enough

      Usually 5 days a week. I do a circuit training DVD which is about 30 minutes long, then add on another 15 minutes of cardio. I will often add some more ab stuff or lift some light weights while I'm watching TV in the evenings on top of that.

      From the responses you can see that there is a huge variation in how much people work out. Just do what you have the time and energy and willingness to do. Whatever fits into your life. Don't feel bad if you don't have the energy to do it after a 24 hour shift.

      I do 5 days a week. Two of those days I do a "killer mode" work out where I try to get up to 2000 calories burned.
      The other three days I burn 1500 per work out. I am also a runner and would consider that my usual work out.
      I add biking on atleast three days.

      Boy do I feel lazy. I exercise (try to) every other day because my joints won't let me do any more than this. Treadmill at the gym every other day, and if I can, ride my stationery bicycle in between visits. I'm 70 years old and I think this is enough for my aging body.:laugh:

      Your are awesome ! Keep on keeping on !

      6 Days a week. 3 days 25 minutes weights, 20 min treadmill, 20 min stationary bike, 20 min treadmill the other 3 days I do everything but weights.
      Sat. morning we go shopping and then I get the rest of the day off.

      I'm doing Couch to 5k for cardio and just added Bar Method to my schedule for some strength training. So my typical week looks like this:

      Sat - C25K day
      Sun - Bar Method
      Mon - C25K day
      Tue - walk to my knitting group, 1.5 miles round trip
      Thu - Bar Method
      Fri - Bar Method or walk outside 30-60 minutes, depending on weather and/or how I feel

      Basically, I try to get something in every day, even if it's just walking down to the beach and wading around in the lake for a little bit, and I figure that walking to my knitting group on Tuesdays counts, too. Oh, and if I want a cookie from Dinkel's, then I've got to walk the 3 miles to the bakery to get it. ;-)

      5 days/week cardio since April. Added strength training last week which I do immediately after.
