I'm curious to see how others are planning their workouts. Or do you just wing it?
Currently, I alternate upper body and lower body each day. I also do low impact cardio every day. (walking). I also try to alternate between strength training and toning routines. And I throw in an ab workout here and there. I work out 5-7 days a week.
What is your schedule like?

    I follow the MAPS program designed by MindPump. Basically full body workout workout 3 days a week, with 2 days of light/trigger workouts. I take 2 days off a week, however I sometimes fill one of these days with a lifting day. I don't do cardio often, no more then 10 minutes a day, 3-5 days a week. BTW: MindPump is a fitness podcast that you can checkout on iTunes where you can get all sorts of information about lifting, diets, and everything else (*note they do enjoy their language) Since following them, I have lost 30 pounds, and increased in all my lifts. Some of the best programs out there.

    I do what Fitness Blender tells me. I like someone else doing the planning, ha! So it's generally a combination of HIIT/upper/lower/cardio intervals across 5 days. I might throw in an extra 6th workout or switch one out for a run now and then. I'm fairly relaxed as long as I'm hitting everything equally.

    Whatever my coach tells me to do. Which is the best version of what I ask for. It changes month to month, but it's always based around the big three movements

    I do cardio 4-5 times a week (because I love sweating), and lift 2-3 times, sometimes less (I get bored SO easily!)

    I just started working out regularly. I am in my 4th week of Bootyful beginning Strong Curves. I do a modified at home version (I mix bodyweight movements with some weight work, but I stick to the "plan" of what muscle groups I'm working) I have adjustable dumbbells, bands, bench, pull up bar, and swiss ball.

    I do strongcurves on M,T, F,Sa (A, B, C, A).

    I like it so far, but feel like I need more. I used to run a while back, so I'm gonna start running again. I am so out of shape, so I'm gonna start Couch 2 5K. I started yesterday (M), and I will run M, Th, Sa.

    So, 2 days per week I will do both workouts (each are about 40 mins). And I get 2 full rest days a week (still walk my dog those days).

    I usually do ~50m cardio 5 days a week (usually Zumba, and I try to get a good sweat on), with Stronglifts 5x5 three times each week. I always try for 10K steps as well, and I really shoot for 14K.

    I follow Blogilates Calendar which has days for cardio, total body, arms, legs, butt, core and recovery. Workouts per day are less than an hour. Recently, I do her videos in the morning then add a Fitness Blender HIIT in the evening.

    I use my elliptical for an hour after class or before work, anywhere between 5-7 times a week. I try to lift at least 1 day of the week, usually on a day that I do not have class or work. Since its summertime, I try to get some extra exercise in with biking.

    Run Monday/Wednesday/Saturday/Sunday
    Cross Train Tuesday/Thursday

    Usually Tuesday is cross training with weights/resistance of some kind and Thursday is a cardio cross train so either rowing or a spin class. My focus this time of year is, obviously, on running ha ha

    I like classes, so I take one six days a week, 5 of them before work. It's easiest for me to always get up early. If I have time, I do some elliptical too.

    Sundays, I do Boot camp, and Tuesdays is MetCon3 with Thursdays being Stacked.

    Mondays and Wednesdays I take a spin class, and Friday is a harder spin class, which is interactive.
