    Monday - bodypump + 2.5 mi treadmill
    Tuesday - spin 1 hr
    Wednesday - 1 hr pure muscle 360 class (strength & calisthenics) + 2.5 mi treadmill
    Thursday - spin 1 hr
    Friday - swim laps 30 min
    Saturday - body pump + 2.5 mi treadmill
    Sunday - rest or treadmill

    I find that it's hard to get 10-15K steps a day unless I go on the treadmill.

    @kshama2001 ... Talk about late replies! We didn't have too much snow here this year which is surprising, as I am in Canada! But running outside for me is dangerous on ice as I am not totally graceful to begin with haha. But walking in the snow might have been a better idea... It just gets so cold here, that I prefer to get my sweat on when it is not going to freeze! :-)

    Am recovering from a bad ankle sprain. I'm used to being in the gym 6 days a week though.

    Right now, I do Barre on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, and Deep Extreme (Body Art) on Fridays. As part of my recovery, I do bike and elliptical too, either on my off days or before a class.

    When my ankle is better, I'll add Spin on Mondays and Wednesdays. Quite possibly I'll do Best Butt Ever instead of Barre on Thursdays.

    My current workout regime is this:
    M - TRX class (or strength training if I can't go)
    T - 3 mile run
    W - strength/rest
    T - 2 mile run and yoga
    F - rest
    S - strength & cross training
    S - long run

    Mine always looks somewhat similar. Usually 3 days of running and 3 days of strength. Yoga, cross training, and a complete rest day thrown in there too.

    Oh and I always get 12k steps, but that's separate from my workout schedule (although running days are a lot easier to get my steps done).

    Saturday - totally weather dependent - could be an hour's swim, a day's hike, a bit of cross-country skiing
    Sunday - again, just depends how I feel or what the weather is doing - could be a run or I could just sit on my *kitten*
