So what's your favorite exercise?

We went on vacation earlier in the month and were delighted to discover fishing is loaded into the website as a calorie burning exercise. It's amazing what 8 hours of fishing a day can do.

It's totally an excuse to fish way more often... :happy:

    Running, being on the elliptical trainer, going horseback riding, swimming (especially in the sea which is close to where I live), circuit training and yoga are my favorites :)
    Although I love fishing!

    Belly Dancing is my favorite. I don't even know I am exercising.
  • I really enjoy just going out for a walk, besides burning decent cals it also puts me in a better mood and helps clear my head
  • what is that?

    Well, I discovered rock climbing and if you do one rock after another, you can burn serious calories. But then I messed up my shoulder and I'm not allowed to use it for awhile. :sad: But once I'm healed, I canNOT wait to get back onto those rocks! I hope to go with a big group (went with just my bf last time so we had to switch off so my calorie burn wasn't constant) so I can burn more.

    I used to fence in college and I would love to get back into it some day. That was the only 'workout' I've ever done that never felt like I was working out. Only problem with it is that it's a very one sided sport, meaning that one side of your body gets more work than the other. So I had some nice quads and calves on my right side from thousands of lunges but my left side, while in shape, was noticeably smaller. :laugh:
