    Sun-Sat 30DS w/rest days about every 4-6days depending on how I'm feeling. I try to make Sunday's my rest days so I can enjoy it with my b/f and the kids. I'm also getting into jogging/running and I walk as often as I can (because I enjoy it clears my mind w/bonus calorie burn)

    In a month, I will need to find time to start triathlon training. Will probably ride the bike/swim on the evenings of my strength trainings.

    Any thoughts on this schedule?

    I wish I had a schedule. I work out, then I rest until I feel like I can work out again. Last week I was at my boxing gym 5 days in a row. This week, I've gone once, and will be weightlifting tonight.

    Schedules are too rigid for me.

    I can be a little compulsive at times with exercise, but I don't go all out with each workout either.

    Right now, this is my schedule:

    Mon - Sat = Jillian Michaels or Vinyasa Yoga ...... Walk 30 min or Zumba ...... TapouT XT
    Sun = Rest


    Basically, I get around 2 hours x 6 days per week. That is typical for me when I am losing. Maintaining is only around 30 minutes to 1.5 hours 4-5 days per week.

    I am in a tri-sports group. Right now we are in swim-focus season and this is my "targeted" routine:

    Monday: swim (usually tempo focus)
    Tuesday: swim (usually VO2 or sprint focus)
    Wednesday: spin class, swim (short distance focus)
    Thursday: swim (sprint or distance focus)
    Friday: spin class, swim (stroke)
    Saturday: Swim (distance focus), Long run
    Sunday: recovery

    Only on the best weeks do I get all of these in. Usually, at least once per week, I will have a work meeting or some other event that conflicts and have to skip a day. If I have to skip two days, that is an exceptionally bad week ;-(

    Starting in mid-January, I will start replacing some of those swims with runs. We also start adding in bike focus in late Winter/early spring.
