Saturday or Sunday I typically go to the gym at least once OR recently I've been trying to run at least a little bit one day.0 -
I work out between 2 and 4 times a week depending on when I have to work and how much homework I have to do for college.
Those of you who are working out every day, I'd just like to mention that not leaving yourself an off or rest day can result in injury in the long run. My track coach in high school used to be incredibly adamant that we rested over the weekend - nothing more than walking.
Usually my schedule is:
Monday: 20-35 minutes of biking, 10-15 minutes of rowing machine, small amounts of core
Tuesday: Rest
Wednesday: 15-25 minutes of jogging, 15-30 minutes of biking
Thursday: 15-25 minutes of jogging, 10-15 minutes of rowing machine, small amounts of leg/arm work outs
Friday: Rest
Saturday: Rest OR 5-15 minutes of an exercise video OR 15-25 minutes of jogging, 15-30 minutes of biking
Sunday: Rest
I often work Thursdays at the time I usually work out, so that day either gets dropped or moved to Friday. Before workouts, I usually walk at least two minutes and afterwards I try and walk at least five and as much as fifteen minutes. I also skateboard to class on weekdays, but I don't count that as I would have to go to class regardless if I was trying to get more healthy or not.
I keep meaning to incorporate more weights into my workouts, but I enjoy the cardio more and more and the weight rooms are always full of big, sweaty, territorial men.0 -
i ride a bike about 8 to 10 miles four times a week. I try and keep the pace at 15 mph. The bike is a 21 gear type and I never change gears. I wear a fat belt and this type of exercise really seems to work for me.0

Omg everyone here seems to be riDONKulous!
I didn't start off very big to begin with (UK size 14 - I don't use scales due to a past disorder), almost 3 weeks into dedicated diet and exercise and I'm thinking one more week before I have to swap my size 14 trousers for a 12 (Woohoo!).
I do 30DS followed by 10 mins at 4.0 - 5mph on my treadmill 4x a week.
I also do the 30 day squat challenge and ab challenge every day except for on the scheduled rest days.0 -
I wish that I could be as awesome as some of the folks in this thread, but for me, I work out as often as my schedule allows. Some weeks, I can get 4- 5 days in. Some weeks, I'm lucky if I can get one day in. A couple of years ago, I was working out 6 days a week with a combo of weights and cardio. I felt awesome and looking back at the pictures, I looked good too (despite not seeing much of a move on the scale.) I'd like to get back to that point after this work project ends, but until then, I'll just do what I can when I can.0

I try to go to the gym every day and am there for nearly 2 hours.
On Tuesdays I also play up to an hour of tennis and Fridays I play indoor football (soccer) for 40 minutes.
Might go and start football training as well.0 -

I run 1-3 times a week, take a dance class or meet my friends for a dance session once a week if possible, and walk quite a lot during the rest of the week. I've slipped into maintaining at the moment by accident, so I need to shake up the exercise a bit. need to dust off the kinect at some point and do some zumba or UFC trainer.0

i do turbo kickboxing (TKB) 2-3 times a week (60 minutes), body combat 2 days per week (60 minutes), and use the stationary bike for 40 minutes 4 days a week.
i really need to up the weight lifting though...0 -
At the minute I'm doing basics like push-ups, sit-ups, squats, etc at home every day for about 20 minutes, but I'm starting to go for runs every few days. I say runs.. More like half jogging, half crawling :P I also do roller derby training once a week for 2 hours.
Not a lot but it's the most I can do without feeling like I'm gunna vomit at this point0 -
