    KORFBALL - mixed sex team - ball sport with similarities to basketball/handball/netball - regular training and matches and knowing will let the team down if I don't go keeps me committed.

    Also love classes... anything with other people suffering alongside me ;0)

    Cycling. Love cycling although still don't do mega distances.
    I'd like to add other things, mostly running, but not sure when I will start trying that.

    See another one who's lost a considerable amount of weight and cycling is your thing. I'm strongly leaning in that direction. It seems sustainable. But I still need to get toned back up.

    squats, deadlifts and planks

    I think those are all great exercises. Great for the core muscles. :)

    I go on an exercise bike daily for 30 minutes and when its nice weather i go for a walk for about another 30 minutes but also i do squats, push ups on my knees, sit ups these exercises i call knee ups which is lifting one knee up at a time for a couple of minutes and boy do u feel it in the legs and my version of sparring it all still is strengthening the muscles and burning the calories

    I walk 2.5 miles every day during my lunch break and hit the treadmill on the weekends!!! I also take my two pups on hikes and walks around the neighborhood. I am going to actually mix it up a little starting this week and change my normal walking route as well instead of hitting the treadmill at the gym this weekend I am going to hit the bike and maybe the Jacobs Ladder (my gym is getting one this week).

    Really? Kayaking? It's obviously working though lol :) and I have always felt kettle bells would be good. How do you use yours as In what specific movements?

    Recently it's been strength. I just can't get myself to run in the horrible summer heat/humidity, and I hate treadmills.

    Heavy lifting (deadlifts, squats, bench, push press, power cleans) and running. I'm doing the Honolulu Marathon in December so training for that takes time and dedication.

    I add in gymnastics training and tabata workouts to fill in the gaps. Short, quick and fun. I never like to workout more then an hour total if can.

    Walking because I can do it anywhere/anytime. But if I'm at the gym I have a love affair with the Crossramp machine.
