    I lift 3x a week. Sometimes I'll run on my off days but I'm not strict about. My focus is on lifting.

    Lift 4x a week and do cardio 3-4x a week. Cardio is anything I feel like doing. 5K run, dance, 8+ mile walk, elliptical, bike, circuit or intervals.

    Hockey like once a week. Maybe like 20 minutes? But a new program I follow has me doing some aerobic exercises in between my lifts so maybe an additional 20 mins of cardio every workout.

    I love cardio interval training
    3-4 times a week I do Denise Austin cardio interval training where she alternates aerobics with weight training in the form of squats and dumbells, her videos arent too long - usually about 20 mins and I usually do this on an empty stomach in the morning .
    1 -2 times a week I do strictly strength based excercises with weights for 30 mins
    5 nights per week I walk my dog 3kms so thats low level cardio as well :)

    I think there is place for cardio and strength training in any good fitness regime

    13 min warm up before weightlifting. Some hiking or mountain biking when I can get out.

    30-45 minutes of HIIT and solid state at least four days a week. I also walk as much as possible, every day (I don't have a car so this is easy).

    90 mins 7 days a week. That includes 20 mins of HIIT. Then add the other 10 hours a day I'm constantly walking (yep I don't stop to sit down) and well..... 7 days a week of 11 1/5 hours of cardio a day.....

    I haven't been doing any these days. It's quite sad.

    However, I used to do HIIT 5 days a week...which is quite a lot and probably why I stopped because I got bored with it.

    OMG, I love to run !!! It's my exercise of choice and I run ever single day, rain or shine. Most days I only run 5K, but I'm starting to train for a half marathon, so I will be running longer distances soon. I also have at least one long bike ride a week (15+ miles.)
