I will try to start posting a question of the day for everyone to talk about and put their oppion or knowledge in.

Question today is - What are they best ways for you to get your daily workout in. If you don't get it in where do you struggle and would you like some help and advice. Also if you do workout, what workout do you do and why?

    One answer: I workout on my elliptical because: 1.) It's indoors. 2.) It gives me a good workout in 30 minutes time. 3.) It helps strengthen my leg muscles and it's aerobic (sp.).

    I find that I need to go as soon as my husband gets home from work. Right before dinner. If I dont leave right away, my motivation wanes. I do cardio and Stronglifts.

    Love this!! Great feedback.

    LadyMud - I love Shaun T too. Insanity helped me get the second baby weight off. Are you a beachbody coach?

    NOpe, just really enjoy some of the dvds :) I don't believe in suppliments and shakes, so I don't do that aspect of it.

    I usually have to find something that fits in between lunch and my oldest getting home from school. gives me 2 hrs almost but I usually get bored after a few weeks of doing the same dvd each day. I only do dvds M-F, massive housework or gardening on Sat. and Sunday is rest and family time. I have been doing Leslie Sansone Walk Away the Pounds dvds, 30 ds and ripped in 30. tried a few others but just not into them. I started out loving the walking ones but now seem to get bored with them and same as the others. biggest bonus was that they weren't expensive and I could afford them. Since I started getting bored with them back in Sept. 2012 I have gained back 15 pounds.

    The struggle I face is trying to fit the gym in, in the morning before my two active boys get out of bed for the day! So I have been getting up when I have had enough sleep at 5am to get to the gym and on the days I can't (and even on the days I have) I fit in an exercise DVD after my boys are settled for the night! Recently I bought the Zumba Exhilerate Dvd Set. It has been a great way to get a great burn, @ 175 lbs in one hour of high intensity Zumba I can burn up to 700 calories! It's great! And when I can I go to the Zumba class @ GoodLife just to change it up a little bit!
    Best of Luck!
