    I'll be doing a bunch of walking (have a 5 month old puppy that requires - demands - at least a 40 minute walk daily.) I do a lot of strength training too. LOVE kettlebell workouts. I'm hoping to add maybe some running and heavy lifting to my routine too.

    My exercise goal......at least 4 or 5 times a week I plan on trying to get 1 hour of something in. That something will be any combination of walking/running both outside and on the treadmill, using the elliptical, some strength training, and my personal favorite....WATP videos. I like them because at my age, 57, I feel like I'm getting a good all over workout. I just did a 50 minute/ 4 mile WATP video. I didn't realize when I turned it on, that it was one using hand weights, and the only ones I had nearby were my 5 pound ones. So I did 45 minutes of the video using the 5 lb ones. Afterwards, my arms were burning and I was sweating like crazy! I feel great!

    " For exercise i will go running monday and wednesday evening (i join a running club last year) for about 1 hour and do strenght training with the club. And i will go swimming at least one day (tuesday or thursday) and definitely go for long distance run (5k and more) either on friday or saturday. So I will try to be at least 4 days active."

    I will continue doing steady cardio that I like to do interval training with on the Elliptical machine since i have one at my house. That is the easiest for me since I don't have to leave the house to work out. I also will continue my strength training, I do lunges, squats, crunches on my weight bench, etc. I also like to throw in some jump rope for cardio because it really challenges me :) I cant get very far with it yet though! lol some days of the week i throw in running or tennis instead of the Elliptical.

    However, My main goal is to add in pilates and/or yoga to my routine and keep working out at least 4 days a week, but I'd like to commit to try to do 5! And maybe lengthen my work outs a little bit :) Right now they're typically around 30min. YAY! excited! :happy:

    I'm going to try to walk between 45 mins to 1 hour 5 times a week rain (usually I stop but going to try not to) or shine. Haven't decided if I'm going to do Insanity again or not or do the Hip Hop Abs. So at the moment not to sure but definitely will be doing something other then sitting on my butt. :)

    I'm going to start Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30 to start. I'll do some walking for a few weeks after that and then start Jillian's Body Revolution.

    I will be doing JNL Fusion and have my workout calendar created and hanging above my scale. The only time I really have to work out is early in the morning so I told my husband that starting next Monday he needs to make sure I am out of the bed before he leaves at 5:30 am!!

    I am excited to start up with everyone!!
