I was wondering what everyone's fitness routine is? Also, what is your goal? Any big weight losses? My routine is hitting the gym 5-6 days a week for 1.5-2 hours! My goal is to lose 162 more lbs!

    Mine is running 3 times a week and P90X 2-3 days a week and nothing on the 1-2 days. I had a total of 48 pounds to lose, down 15 since about mid-August.

    My routine sounds really dumb next to yours, but I go for an hour long walk every day or every other day. So far I've lost over 15lbs doing that and taking out most of the processed foods from my diet and substituting them for healthier options. If I had the money for a gym membership I'd probably go every day!

    Right now, I workout five days a week (M-F) and take weekends off. I weight train M,T,Th, and Fri and do cardio on Wed. My normal weight sessions are from 60-75 mins and cardio is about 45 mins.

    I am a swimmer. On MWF I swim for an hour doing a combination of freestyle and breaststroke. Usually I walk about 3 miles on 3 out of the other 4 days. Not very varied I know but I like it.

    I ride my exercise bike at home for 30 minutes before breakfast - 7 days a week. On the weekdays, I go to the fitness center where I walk in the water resistance pool for 20 minutes and after that I swim laps in the pool for 35-45 minutes. Once I am cleared to lift weights (I had surgery in October), I will workout on the weight machine for 30 minutes 2-3 times a week, too.

    :wink: right now I am doing Chalene Extreme, I am on month 3 week 1 and I love it. I have done insanity and turbofire also and I loved them both. I have lost 80+ pounds and now my goal is to get by bodyfat percentage down and get stronger. I like to change it up because I get bored easily

    The weather has really taken the wind out of my workout sails. I work right next to a 3 mile lake. I usually walk or jog around the lake at lunchtime but with the crap weather and lack of motivation, it's been hard. I also do yoga DVD's 3-4 days a week. I must get more diligent with my Zumba wii game!

    I try to do interval training on the treadmil 3 times a week. Right now I walk at 4.0 for 5 minutes and then jog at 5.0 for 5 minutes for a full hour. Starting next week I'll be walking for 3 minutes and jogging for 7...I'll keep that up until I can jog comfortably for the hour and then work on my speed. Then twice a week (Wed and Sat or Sun) I go to a weight lifting class at my gym so I'm not solely focused on cardio. I try to mix it up on the weekends with step, zumba or spin as well just so I don't get bored of my workouts :)

    I try to workout 4 to 5 times a week. 3 times cardio 2 some sort of strength training. I like to mix them in hour long sessions like circuit training. That's my favorite! I'm not trying to lose weight, I don't need to, but tone and strengthen and stay overall healthy!

    I do taekwondo 3-4 times a week (classes are 75 minutes each). In the morning I try to get in at least 15 minutes of rope jumping, and in the evening I try to get in least 15 minutes of body weight exercises. I also hike/walk a lot when the weather is nice. Unfortunately it's going to be stormy for a while here.

    I'm not really looking to lose weight (I lost about 15 lbs last year). I just want to clean up my diet and become stronger. I'm going to be getting my black belt relatively soon so that's a huge incentive to keep improving my fitness levels.

    Currently I'm doing Round 2 of ChaLEAN Extreme with a little P90X thrown in for fun (or intensity lol). My goals are to continuing maintaining my weight loss from 20 years ago and to build muscle to keep my metabolism up in my 40s.
