P90X and spinning
Starting cross fit next week0 -
When I'm not recovering from an injury I do StrongLifts 5x5 every other day (3-4 times per week, depending on how the days fall) with a few minutes on the elliptical to warm up a little (totals out to right at an hour), and on the days I'm not lifting, I try to walk for at least 30 minutes.0

P90x+ or P90x 6 days a week plus some walking and extra workouts on the weekends and when I have time. usually some extra cardio or a workout that focuses on 'bigger' areas (butt and thighs).0

I try to get to the gym 5 days a week for 45-50 mins
Mon/Wed/Fri I do classes that work on cardio, strength & stability two of those classes include training on BOSU's.
Tues/Thur I do yoga classes to get a good healthy stretch between the tougher stuff.
If I can't make it to the gym for some reason I try to get in atleast a quick 20min Turbo Jam workout or enjoy some time with the kids by playing Just Dance on our Wii.
Before I was able to fit classes into my schedule I would go to the gym and switch back & forth between cardio & strength days.
Cardio days would be an hour split up on the treadmill, stationary bike, rowing or elliptical
Strength days I would warm up/get my heart rate up on the treadmill for 15min ...do my weight circuit and cool down for 15min on bike or treadmill0 -
Currently, I am doing Insanity 6 x a week (on the recovery week atm- almost ready for month 2! Eeeee!) and I go to yoga and spin also when I can...0

Monday - morning 40 minutes light aerobics gets my blood going, evening lift weights 40 minutes and 10 minutes on cardio to warm up
Tuesday - morning 40 minutes light aerobics, evening 25 minutes elliptical and 35 minutes stationary bike
Wednesday - repeat Monday
Thursday - repeat Tuesday
Friday - repeat Monday
Saturday - repeat Tuesday but some Saturdays just do some light aerobics in the morning, it is like coffee to me, I need it to wake up and it loosens up my bones and muscles and keeps the arthritis in check.
Sunday - 60 minutes swimming laps.
Rinse and Repeat the week. This may seem like a lot to some but I have a very sedentary job so I try to move more.0 -
I could imagine that this may not be much to many but I am so excited to bust out up to 350 on the elliptical 3-4 times a week for 1/2 an hour:happy: I recall a time when I dreaded it and could only endure 20 minutes the most.0

Hi! I really shake it up! I get bored easily, but I love to exercise these days, so to avoid burn out, I do LOTS of different types of exercise.
I do exercise DVD's at home. Some of my favorites are:
Kathy Smith's Super Slimdown Circuit (this is by far my favorite)
Health Magazine: Train for Your Body Type
Health Magazine: Wedding Workout
I love all the Walk Away the Pounds videos on light exercise days
Davina (from England) has awesome higher-impact circuit DVD's
I also do 30-day shred on occasion
I also walk with my husband several times a week, use the elliptical at the Y, play Just Dance with my kids and do lots of circuit training.
I want to start biking, too. Both outside and spinning.
Mixing it up is key for me. I'm not big on routine, so it works for me!

Some sort of short cardio, maybe walking on the treadmill, maybe an HIIT YouTube video or kickboxing. I've recently started adding a short Pilates workout after as well, although I try to avoid hitting my legs too much. Yoga or stretching if I have time.

walking/running (modified C25K)
zumba class (once a week, sometimes twice if I can squeeze it in)
pilates
plus I coach a kid's soccer team0 -
Cardio: 5 times a week
Weights: 4-6 times a week (except fromm end of march to April 21 because of a cardio challenge)
Session with trainer: 1 time a week (I get "homework"/weight lifting routines from him)
Cardio: I prefer running - about an hour but I'll use just about any cardio machine.
Weights: the program I'm on is similar to NROLFW - my trainer has actually been doing this for this entire 33 year career! He works primarily with women - he's current client portfolio only has 1 guy. Why? because he's been out to banish the notion that lifting makes women bulky.0 -
Hi there! I run 5 miles a day 5 or 6 days a week and I do one or two jillian Michaels video a day (either ripped in 30, 30 day shred or killer buns and thighs). Occasionally i will also do ab ripper X. I ride a bike to commute sometimes as well, I will be more as the weather is warming up now!0
