Usually 5-6 hours, most of it running. I'm trying to get more regular about doing strengthening and core work, so today tried out a Pilates class that I'll probably continue with. But I'm also going to boost my running mileage a bit over the next couple of months (training for a half marathon, and have bigger goals in the future).0

6-8 hours0

Yoga: 30-36 mins per day (6 times a week)
Cardio: 30 mins x day (6 times a week)
Bodyweight: 45 mins x day (6 times a week)0 -
Lift: 3 hours
Cardio: 4-5 hours0 -
I lift aprox 2 - 2 1/2 hrs per week and cardio 3 - 4 hrs per week. Calculating it really makes me think I need to step up the lifting !! lol0

Well, I usually do some cardio then the 30DS, 6 days a week. I spend anywhere from 20 - 60 min on cardio, depending on what time I have allotted. I average 40 according to my reports, each day (I always try to do something). Last week I did 285 minutes.0

I try to workout 5 days a week.
I lift 3 x 30. Before those lifting sessions, I do 20 minutes of cardio. 10 minutes of yoga/pilates as a cool down. On the off days (2), I do 45 minutes of cardio (usually cycling) and 10 minutes of yoga/pilates as a cool down. I take two rest days but will generally go on these days to walk the dogs or run around at the park. I never keep track of that stuff though.
So
1.5hr lifting
2.5hr cardio
100min yoga/pilates0 -
12-15 plus maintenance lifting.0

Gosh! I feel like a serious slacker!
HIIT - 20-30 minutes x2
Steady state cardio (in the gym) - 30 minutes x1
Lifting heavy - 30-40 minutes x3
(Basically three one hour gym sessions)
Also
Brisk walking - 40-60 minutes x5 or x6
Dancing like a crazy person - 90 minutes x1
It does add up, though. I've been making a conscious effort to take the stairs more (averaging 30 flights a day) and the walking is what I do at lunchtimes.0 -
Mon- pump, combat
Tues- CX, combat or swim, balance
Weds-gym for an hour, yoga
Thurs-CX, pump
Try and fit more on, but that's usual, so 8 hours.0 -
I'm doing Jillian michaels 30 day shred 5 out of the 7 days for 30 min.
So 2 1/2 hours a week0 -
Haha, I am such a slacker compared to y'all.
I do pole once per week (hour long class), gymnastics once per week (an hour and a half), and then try to do something active at least twice more in that week. That could mean yoga, going to the gym, going for a run, or heading out for a day of snowboarding.
I've really just been concentrating on my eating lately, I figure if I can get that to where I want it to be, a more structured exercise routine can come later.0 -
I do crossfit 5x/wk and the workouts range from 20-45min. So roughly 1hr and 40mins to almost 4hrs a week.0
-
15 minute warm up, running/jogging/walking 1.50 - 1.75 miles 4 times a week before lifting
Lift 4 times a week for 50 minutes, concentrating on one muscle group, legs, back, chest, arms
50 minutes of fat burn exercises i.e. treadmill set at varied inclines and 3.5 - 4.0 speed.
Break in the middle and at end of fat burn and incorporate core exercises, weighted and non weighted.
Critique diet daily, obtain calorie goal depending on off day and workout day, de load, etc.
Good Luck!0 -
I only run--about 6.5-7 hrs a week (5 days)0

Based on what I read, you're pretty maxed out for time spent in the gym. And it's good you've added strength training to a heavy cardio work out. Try to mix up the type of cardio you do so your body doesn't adapt. Also, steady state cardio will break down your muscle growth, so mix it up with some interval training, HIIT, plyometrics, tabata...stuff like that
I'll do an hour of strength and 30 min cardio about five days a week, cus I'm more concerned with building muscle.
Good luck! You're doing great Make sure you're eating enough food to fuel that training or your wear yourself out0 -
I do Cardio only....about 45-60mins and 5-6x a week.0
