    Wednesday - Bike HIIT Routine and Ab work
    Thursday - Squats, Bench 3x8 and DL 1x8 plus some accesory work

    I do 5/3/1

    Monday: Overhead Press, chins ups, pull ups
    Tuesday: Deadlifts, Rows, & Mobility
    Thurs: Bench press, Abs
    Friday: Squats, Glute Ham Raise, & Mobility

    I try to squeeze squeeze in a couple decent interval sessions within the week, but it doesn't always happen. As for the lifting however... i would show up late to my own funeral if I had to in order to get my workout in.

    Monday - Friday @ 3am

    12 minutes treadmill
    12 minutes bike

    + Friday

    Lift every weight in the building, lift the largest until I can't anymore, and move down a size. Once I moved through all the weights, I swing a kettlebell until I start screaming. Then I go home to enjoy my 2 days off.

    2 BodyStep classes
    1 BodyCombat class
    2-3 Weight training sessions (if I do a PT session then 2 days of weights, otherwise I try for 3)
    1 Personal Training session
    1-3 Yoga classes
    1-2 Bootcamp classes (Usually 1, sometimes 2)
    Every now and then a RPM (spin) class but I haven't been to one in over a month
    1 day of rest which usually entails a relaxing yoga class

    Every now and then I take a day off but never on a weightlifting-day. Looks like a lot but weightlifting is always done within 45min exept for legstraining.

    I'm currently working my way through Jillian's "Ripped in 30." I just started level 2 yesterday. Her workouts kick my *kitten* so much that I can't do them two days in a row. So I've been alternating RI30 with either fast walking outside (3 miles in 45 minutes) or 30 minutes on the arc trainer on the in-between days.

    Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I walk 30 minutes, do 30 minutes on the elliptical, and 15 minutes weight lifting each day.
    Tuesday is a rest day. Sometimes I walk for 30 minutes.
    Thursday I walk at least 30 minutes.
    Saturday and Sunday I walk for 60 minutes.

    I recently started a 12 week plan from bodybuilder.com by Jamie Eason. Each day is a different muscle group, and for the first month there is no cardio.
    Typically I will do strength training 3x a week 2days of cardio and I like going to body combat body pump classes and running.

    I like to keep it simple, I run 5k 3-4 times a week and lift on the days that I run in the gym because of weather. I also have some dvds that I do for an hour when I'm bored.

    3. Alternating toe-touches (25);
    4. Walking lunges (25);
    5. Jumping Jacks (50);
    6. Air Squats (25);
    7. Barbell Squats (% intensity varies);
    8. Bench Press (% intensity varies);
    9. Farmer's Walks; and
    10. Running (100 yards).

    Mine is similar to yours! Monday is my rehearsal night, so Monday I skip.
    Tuesday is running (right now, 6.5k-8k depending on the week, I'm training for a half marathon)
    Wednesday is 20 mins of cardio and back bicep shoulder and tricep work and ABS
    Thursday is running (see Tuesday)
    Friday is 20 mins of cardio and legs, glutes and ABS
    Saturday - Run, long run for the week. right now 12-15 km
    Sunday - Run like Tues and Thur and strength training, whatever I feel needs to be done. The 20 minute cardio routines have some strength training too, so whatever hasn't gotten a good going over will get it on Sunday, and ABS! :)

    I was doing a squat challenge for a while, then I did a pushup and crunch challenge. Doing something EVERY DAY is counter productive I think! :0 This is for the next couple of weeks!
