YOUR EXERCISE ROUTINE

Will I'm 20 and I mostly just run...

I'm 5'3, 29, and 160lbs (down from 172 since I started back on MfP in August).

I have tried a little bit of everything in the past: various classes, cardio machines, weight machines, free weights, dance workouts, videos like 30 Day Shred. Now, I have just started running and am back to lifting free weights, but focusing mostly on large compound lifts rather than splits and isolation. I lift 3 days a week and run (more walk/jog at this point) 3 days a week.

Whoops - forgot - height 5' 4.5"

okay. sooo...

38YO female
5'1"
SW 252
CW 213
I started with JM 30DS and walking
I Now do Turbo Fire 6X/ week as per the schedule given, run 1 - 2 X/week, gardening as it needs it and Zumba 1X/week (Included in the TF is toning/core/strength "classes")

I'm 25, 172 cm (5'7''), started here at 95 kg (210 lbs) and now I am 72ish kg (160 lbs).

I don't actually have a routine. I have multiple workout DVDs on my computer, ranging from Pillates, Tae Bo, Jillian Michaels, Biggest Looser series, dancing aerobics, strenght training (mostly Jari Love) etc. I tried various workouts and keep the ones that I didn't hate doing (and I'm not taliking on being hard; there are hard workouts I really love even if most times I can't finish them; I'm just talking of workouts I hate doing).
I just try to work out 2-3 hours a week.
I mostly do the workout in order, but I change them in function of my time and stamina. I mean... if I come home late and I had a bad day, I'm only gonna do 20 minutes of Pillates. If I have a free day, I make time for 45-60 minutes workouts.

It's a little chaotic, but I'm doing it. If I would have a exercise routine all scheduled up and all... I just got bored and hate the exercises.
For example I love 30Shred once in a while... but if I were to do it everyday a whole month... well... probably I wouldn't.

I don't look for being all sportsy and athletic. I'm just trying to incorporate a little workout to tone a little and stretch my muscles.

I'm 5'5", 150 pounds, 25 years old.

I currently do 45 minutes to an hour on the treadmill and sometimes elliptical at the gym... at home I try to join in the 30 day shred, with one to two rest days. Trying to hike once in a while too.

5'5.5, 25yo. 134 pounds
Gym 3-4 times a week. 15 minutes cardio warm up, full body weight lifting, ogling hot guys in the squat rack, stretching.

Height 5'3", weight 62K, age 53.

My exercise week goes like this:

Mon - Home Yoga practise.
Tue - Home Yoga practise. Pulling calisthenics.
Wed - Yoga Class.
Thu - Home Yoga practise. Swim 1 mile.
Fri - Home Yoga practise. Cycle to work (16 miles total trip)
Sat - Yoga Class. Pulling calisthenics.
Sun - Home Yoga practise. Swim 1 mile or cycle club ride 20 miles.

My legs, core and pushing muscles get plenty of resistance work through the yoga, but I do include pulling calisthenics twice a week to ensure I am balancing pulling and pushing muscle groups.

My weekend swims often take me to the sea if it is calm enough or inland waters; safe rivers and lakes and quarries reclaimed for water leisure.

I have tried weight training but it doesn't "float my boat" - more interested in how I can handle my own bodyweight in challenging ways.

I'm 5'9", 185 lbs, and 35. I started weight lifting years ago with Bill Phillips "Body For Life" and fell in love. I kept with it for about a year, lost a bunch of weight, was stronger than ever before, and looked great at a muscular 160 lbs. I have also done yoga, lap swimming, Zumba, spinning, and group power. Zumba is great fun but I can't seem to commit to cardio for long term. I am not a cardio queen. I love weight lifting, yoga, and swimming but I am always looking for something new to try.

I have done Lou Schouler's "New Rules of Lifting for Women" and would recommend it to anyone new or experienced.

I am currently doing "The New Rules of Lifting for Abs" 2-3 days a week. This program focuses on core balance and balancing your muscle strength to avoid things like back pain. I love it so far and am really surprised how challenging some of the exercises are. One of them is the Swiss ball mountain climber, which is doing Mt. climber alternating legs with your hands on a big ball. The other is the plank with pull down, which is doing a plank while doing a pull down on a pulley. They are both really hard to do but that's why they are making me stronger. I can tell from week to week that I am stronger just from looking at those exercises alone.

I do a lot of walking at least 5 miles a day. I often drag my kids along with me for a short evening walk. It's good family time and gets us out of the house for free.

okay we all count calories!! keeping that in mind

what is your height, weight and age

what is the exercise you have done uptil now and what are you doing these days.?

maybe this way we can motivate each other for trying out new exercises.

Pls do mention ur age

I am 5'10, 46 years old, Starting weight 265 lbs, current weight 167 lbs ( yay!)

I run around 30-60 miles a week.

I don't run for weight loss or to burn calories any more, I guess i run now as it is as much a part of my life as watching Tv, using the internet etc.

5'8, 68kg, 41 yrs

Used to do: HIIT, kettlebell circuits, strength training, tai chi, indoor climbing

Now do: strength training, tai chi, gymnastics, tennis, indoor climbing

I just do more of the stuff that's actually fun rather than abstract movements to burn fat. I mean, I can play tennis or climb for hours. I'll keep going to the point of pain (the bad pain!). And then keep going. Stupid, really, but you just don't notice the hours fly by.

I am 47,weigh 155 and am 5ft10. Began to make changes in 2005 and went from 260lbs down to 170 doing super slow body weight exercises ,cutting my calories, super hydration and other small techniques.
Afterwards I kept weight around 180 to 190 for about 6 or 7 years .

Decided to lose more stubborn belly fat with a activity I liked so canoeing was it,calorie deficit I did it four times a week average 2.5 hours each day and dropped to 165 in 3
months. I got leaner but didn't like my muscularity.

Began Stronglifts 5x5 in June and kept a minor deficit until the weights got harder and plateaus got more frequent did I increase calories to maintenance and lost weight down to 152 until I stopped standard 5x5 ,deciding 4 weeks.ago I needed to bulk up more muscle mass volume adapting Stronglifts movements for 8 reps minimum and only.three sets,so here I am here and now 155 on the road to 175 goal of twenty pounds of muscle as my first goal and many more to follow...

5'7''
SW:142
CW: probably around 135/6 but have no access to a scale!
GW: 130 (but generally just being more toned and feeling stronger- doesn't bother me much what the scale says)
19 years old

Lost first 5 llbs with 30DS, hot yoga, and running
I would do the 30 DS (25 mins), and then go straight to my yoga class (60-90 mins)

Currently doing P90X Lean, but modifying it a little.
I often skip the yoga day (don't like P90X yoga so much) , and run for 30 mins instead. I usually try to add some HIIT into my runs- I use telephone poles sprint markers!
I also don't have a pull up bar, so I'll do push ups with my feet elevated.
I use bands instead of free weights for strength.

I've been using doyogawithme.com for stretching after runs.

Also: WALK EVERYWHERE YOU CAN. Even if I have to take the bus I get off a stop early and walk.
