    Right now I am doing Turbo Fire* and going by their schedule as much as possible. I'm on week 8.

    In addition to that I do squats, leg lifts, pushups and tricep dips regularly, and weights (dumbells) less regularly. As soon as the weather warms up a little more, I'll add hiking and running back in. And once I finish Turbo Fire, I think I'm going to try Insanity.

    *Turbo Fire is primarily high impact cardio - a combination of HIIT (plyometrics mostly) and steady state - but also includes strength (body weight and resistance bands) and stretch (yoga).

    I'm doing P90X which has a mixture of cardio and lifting. If you are not comfortable with weights you can use the resistance bands to get the same effect.

    Monday - Chest and Back - Abs
    Tuesday - Plyometrics
    Wednesday - Shoulders and Arms - Abs
    Thursday - Yoga
    Friday - Legs and Back - Abs
    Saturday - Kenpro (like kickboxing)
    Sunday - Rest (You can rest or do what is called Stretch X which a hour of nothing but stretches - If I am really sore I do that if not I skip it)

    Do the Gilad Total Body workout. I'm sure you can find his shows on the fitness channel. That will work out everything in about 30 min. He is easy to follow and very encouraging during the entire workout.

    Strength train/lift heavy four days a week in my garage, alternating with upper body/lower body. Then Saturday and Sunday I do a full body class called Orange Theory, I suppose similar to a boot camp or cross fit class. Rest one day.

    I'm mostly cardio as well but do a few strength training exercises and I like to think of high resistance on a stationary bike as a bit of strength for my legs. Here's my schedule:

    Monday: Gym session - usually treadmill and stationary bike
    Tuesday: No workout - placement day
    Wednesday: Zumba Toning - 30-40 minutes of Zumba dancing and 15-20 mins of strength using hand weights (squats, lunges and a bit of ab work)
    Thursday: No workout - uni and work at night
    Friday: Spinning and ab blast (15 mins of intense cardio work straight after spinning) at night
    Saturday: Another gym session, same as Monday usually.
    Sunday: No workout - working all day and catching up with uni work at night

    I don't have a schedule, but I change things up daily. It could be any 2 or 3 combo of the following. I usually workout for about 45 minutes a day. I am in my 50's so what works for me may not work for someone younger. I have a home gym in my basement. I started this on 2/1 this year. I can already see a difference in my body appearance.

    treadmill- 20 minutes, mainly focus more on hills and less on speed
    bike- 20 minutes
    eliptical- 20 minutes
    rower- 20 minutes
    3lb hula hoop-20 minutes
    smith machine/free weights-20 minutes( I am recovering from a shoulder injury, so have to be careful here)
    floor exercises with the mat and ball- 20 minutes

    Since it's winter here and we have a tonne of snow (I love winter!!) I'm trying to take advantage of it as much a possible!

    Monday: 1h30 cross-country ski lessons - Classic Technique (it's a full body and cardio workout)
    Tuesday: 1hr boot camp (full body workout)
    Wednesday: 5k run and if time permit spin class on my trainer at home.
    Thursday: 1hr boot camp (full body workout)
    Friday: 5k run and 2 hr alpine skiing (I'm a former ski instructor so I know what exercises to do to get the heart and leg pumping :) )
    Saturday: OFF
    Sunday: 2h30 alpine skiing and 1h30 cross-country skiing (practicing my techniques for Monday night)

    Once Spring has arrived I'll change the cross-country skiing and alpine for more running and road cycling.
