I think it would be neat to see what everyone likes to do. It might inspire some of us to try new things. So I will go first, it's nothing fancy but I did 55 squats, a 10 minute powerwalk and 50 jump ropes. I have a pretty bad cold so I am taking it easy. I usually like to hike or do circuit training. Your turn now, what was your workout today?

    Recovery week here so easy and light. Some light squats and bench, and some shrugs and Tate press. Nothing especially hard but the real work starts again on Monday.

    I did 3x10 each of:

    Assisted pull-ups
    Assisted dips
    Pulley row
    Weighted lunges
    Kettlebell swings
    Dumbbell press
    Push-ups

    Plus 2 3x20 ab things that I don't know the name of, and 2.2 miles on the treadmill until I had to go back to work.

    My routine is strength stuff on Tuesday/Thursday at lunch, 6-8 mile runs on Monday/Wednesday mornings before work (sometimes easy ones but at least once a week I do tempo, hills, or sprint intervals), a long run on Saturday (14 miles the past few weeks) and a short recovery run on Sunday.

    I kind of hate strength training but I know cross-training is good for me so I do it begrudgingly, but I'm really into running right now so I'm mostly doing that. I'm trying to see how far below 2:00:00 for a half marathon I can get before June.

    120 minutes of medium-speed indoor volleyball at lunch today. Tonight it will be Stronglifts 5x5 workout A (squats, bench press, barbell row). Usually I don't double-up like this but my schedule got weird this week.

    Strong Lifts 5x5 Workout B today (4th time for B workout since starting the program). Consists of squats, overhead press, and deadlift. After that, I'll do 10 mins on the rowing machine and 10-15 minutes on the elliptical. In total it takes about 1 hour and burns around 460 calories :smiley:

    I had eye cataract surgery last week so I'm not allowed to lift weights for 2 weeks. BOO!

    Today I went to the gym and spent 50 minutes on the treadmill, combining running with walking and then 45 minutes on the elliptical. It was a pretty good workout!

    An easy day here. I haven't been sleeping well so I only logged a quick 20 minutes of an aerobics dvd. Tomorrow will be better.

    Went to crossfit had a fun day woohoo!

    Warmup: 800meter run and then stretching with emphasis on the hamstrings.
    Followed by 5 front squats 5 Overhead presses with a 35lb bar.
    Then we did a fun little complex to build up to as heavy as possible of: 1 squat clean, 1 front squat, and 1 jerk.
    I got to 100lbs which is a PR for my squat clean! And I elected to do the push jerk because I like that better than the split jerk because I feel more stable.
    Then we did as many reps as possible in 5 minutes of squat cleans and jerks. Coach suggested we do squat clean thrusters because it takes less time than having to re-position for the jerk at the shoulders. I did this fun workout with 75lbs which was a bit taxing and got 15 full reps plus two squat cleans where I missed the jerks; he said I could count those two halfs as a whole. So I got 16 reps. Yay!

    20 minute run on the treadmill then 30 minutes of cardio/strength intervals. I'll rotate 1 minute of cardio (usually stuff on/with a step like taps, box jumps, mountain climbers, etc.) with a couple of sets on arm machines.
