    I work out about 4 days a week if you exclude my daily walking at work.

    2 days of weight and 2 days of intense cardio. Ballgames get added to this.

    I run 3 days a week. 2 days a week I do a 1-hr class called "20/20/20". 20 mins of cardio, 20 minutes of Pilates-style strength, & 20 minutes of yoga. I'd like to start lifting again, but I'm not sure how to fit it in

    I lift weights 3x per week for 30 min. No cardio added in yet. Ideally I would love to workout 4-6x per week for 45min 4 days weights and 2 days cardio/yoga like I used to but with a toddler and infant and lack of sleep, it's not happening yet!

    Usually 5-6 days per week: strength training 3 days for about 40-60 min (combination of ICF 5x5, NROL4W, or TRX) and cardio or mixture of resistance/cardio/ yoga for another 2-3 days (about 30-50 min).

    Honestly? I could do cardio everyday of my life. I love the sweat from aerobic exercises and running, however, to get the body I want I need to lift more.

    Right now I workout 4-5 times a week, about a 45 minutes-hour a day. I run a few times a week (2-4) and try to do at least 20 minutes of weightlifting 4 times a week.

    I run 6 days a week. Really need to implement some core strengthening and weights, but enjoying this for now...one step at a time I figure.

    I'm up to 1.5 hour runs pretty much daily. Ideally I do strength training via video work outs a few days a week, but I've been really lax about that lately.

    Pole dancing sounds fun! I work out 6x/week, for about an hour a day. I do Jazzercise (NO!! We are not about leg warmers anymore!!), and have for 2 years. LOVE it.

    Sounds fun! Is that online/ class or DVD?

    I workout about 6 days a week for about an hour a day give or take. Half of that time is spent lifting and half of that time is spent on various kinds of cardio....however, I'm recovering from a knee injury, so my cardio time is now spent on the stationary bike and doing PT--sniff :( . I change up my rotations every 4 weeks or so and take a recovery week every 8 weeks. My aging body needs it!

    M-F: 30min run, 1 hour power yoga, 20min bike ride (I'm a run/bike commuter)
    Either Sat or Sun I'll do a 30min run, though sometimes I take the whole weekend off.

    I do 4 days and sometimes 5. I don,t like cardio but do it 1day, then three days of lifting. I warm up on cardio then 8-10 weight exercises and finish with 10 min on the treadmill. My gym has all Technogym equipment and I do like the Vario which is similar to a xtrainer but more of a running action and I use it for all my warm ups.

    I do CrossFit about 6 days a week. I run 1-3 miles after each CrossFit workout and do some kind of core or accessory work. I spend about 3 days focusing on power lifts and then 1-2 days focusing on Olympic weightlifting.

    I take classes at one of Jazzercise's "Premier" facilities. It's very nice, great instructors, and an awesome locker room/showers so I can go to class at 6am and get ready for work after. I LOVE IT.

    I work out approximately 3 times a week but from this week I'm going to increase this to 5. My routine starts with a ten minute warm up on either a treadmill or cross trainer followed by a 30 min weight session (changing my targeted muscle groups each session). Then I finish with a further 25 minutes of cardio. I'm hoping to lose those stubborn last pounds as going on holiday at the end of July. I might change an odd session to spinning just for the variation.

    - four weight lifting sessions (Wendler 45min-1hr each).
    - netball training (1.5hrs)
    - netball game (1hrs)
    - usually umpire a game (1hr)
    - flexibility/mobility work (less than I need)

    I work out every day, for 45-60 minutes. I was doing a lot of cardio, with some strength work, but I was getting so tired, so I've cut back on the LISS cardio. Now I'm doing barre classes/weights/HIIT, instead.

    In the summer I was walking about 2 miles a day outside or doing indoor cardio to include hiit. Weight training ruled the workout. I found my body builds muscle fast so now Im back to 3 days cardio and 2 day weight training with a minimum of 30 minutes each session. With cardio I switch it up walks, elliptical, Cize keeps me motivated. Strength I split between upper and lower body freestyling and yoga.

    I do a combination of spin/hiit/circuit three to four times a week. It's only a 45 minute class, so it's quick in and out.
    I wouldn't call myself a sporty person but I absolutely lovelovelove the spinning. I feel it's great for my stamina and the circuit training gives me toning.

    I workout between 3-6 times a week depending on my week and how busy I am with work and family stuff. Monday & Thursday I always try to catch a spin class, Tuesday is aerial class, Wednesday is pole class, and Friday or Saturday are either a private pole lesson or pole work at home, and Sunday is generally always a rest day, although last week I did work on my pole routine that's due at the end of October.

    Friday & Saturday are always work dependent b/c there's a chance that I have to work that evening.
