Do you stop the app and continue w your "normal" workout, do you redo that day's plan, or do you continue to the next day's plan?

I stop and stretch. I crosstrain on my off days.0

I finish walking to the car as I drive to the nearest track (I live in an area thats all hills and am not at the level to even walk them yet.)
Then at home I stretch my quads, glutes, hip, hamstrings, calves really well
I run the recommended three times a week and in september I will add strength training on my opposite days0 -
After I finish, I walk home and stretch / laze around
Sometimes on off days I'll do row or walk around parks, etc., but I'm mostly just starting to exercise regularly for the first time in a LONG time. Hoping to get into stronglifts soon 0 -
I walk home, do 15 minutes of cardio with weights then I cool down with 15 mins of yoga.0

Do you have a Yoga DVD you watch? I have been thinking of doing Yoga after my workout. Sounds like a good fit, but don't know where to start.0 -
To the original poster, Some days I am wiped out and don't do anything extra, but most other days I do my plank challenge as well as some other body weight strength training, especially upper body as I have a pear shape and tend to be frail on top and bigger on the bottom.0

Yes. Jennifer Kries' The Method: Pilates Target Specifics. Don't let the title fool you. It's a blend of yoga, pilates and classical ballet. There's four different targeted workouts in it, each are 15 mins. I don't just use that one, I use other The Method DVDs as well. I like to switch it up to keep my body guessing.
I actually found it at Winners (same company as Marshall's and TJ Max) for $4.99. I bought it on a whim and fell in love. I now own about six or seven of hers.
I find her DVDs to be really good stretches. They also help with the core, and well, I won't complain about that!
You can rent it from Amazon for 2.99 to check it out. http://www.amazon.com/The-Method-Pilates-Target-Specifics/dp/B00141B2NS0 -
I run at night so usually it's a hot shower and bed time for me. Running has seemed to help my sleeping. Although honestly I never finish my run exactly at my house so I just continue my cool down walk back to the house.0

I usually do my runs at the forest preserve so when I'm done, I walk the remainder of the trail, stretch at the end, mark that day as complete and go home. On off days, I try to do something like JM 30 day shred or Hip Hop Abs. Other days, i may just be lazy and relax around the house :-)0

Time is short in the mornings when I run so I route it so I'm almost home at the end of the podcast then shower and go to work. Later in the evening I'm currently doing 30 day abs and 30 day arm challenges (I'm getting better at push ups!).
If it's a Monday (my day off) I'll usually take the pup for a long walk in the afternoon, especially if she hasn't been out running with me.
I don't ache so much the next day (in the early part of the programme I could hardly walk) so I should probably find something else to do on the in-between days instead of being a lazy *kitten* lol0
