    Wow! This looks really good. I'm ashamed to say that I struggle doing 10 crunches, nevermind 500. Did you work up to that? I just downloaded the 200 situps app for my iphone. Has anyone used this?

    It's great seeing all these routines. I like the idea of focusing on one muscle group per day so maybe weights focusing on arms one day and legs the next. I probably would have tried to just do them all at once.
    Wed - Hatha Yoga 90min

    I'm normally a pilates girl but my gym doesn't have pilates at a time to suit. I've never done hatha yoga before but I'm doing it for the first time later in the week. What should I expect from a 90 min class?

    i do hatha yoga twice a week. a lot depends on the instructor with any class but with mine, if you are comfortable with pilates then hatha yoga will come easily. pilates has a lot more movement in one area at a time- yoga more stretch and hold and then move through a couple different movements for different areas, hope that makes sense.

    Everyday for the next 30 days.

    30 Day Shred + 1 Mile Run + Wii with the kids/cleaning/walks

    I usually burn 800-900 calories in a day with that, so it works for now :)

    It was hard the first week. I was able to do 100, then I started adding more as I went along. You will get used to it after awhile. :)

    My lifting days are usually a full body routine, but that's just the way I prefer to structure it. I've tried scheduling in days for different muscle groups but I really didn't enjoy that as much.

    The hatha class I go to is wonderful for stress relief and "me time". We do a lot of stretching and holding poses and flexibility. Some sun salute and poses from the primary Ashtanga series. Some chanting and breathing and meditation. I always feel clean and level headed and relaxed after class. I've found myself incorporating a lot of the stretches into my post-lifting stretch time.

    careful with all those situps and crunches, watch and listen to you're lower back. :)

    Cool thread though!
    Fortnightly for me

    me:
    Monday: Squats - Bench - Pullups - Weighted Dips
    Tuesday: Conditioning. which can mean: Sprints/kettlebell/parksession(like a circuit with sprinting,pulups,pushsup n stuff)
    Wednesday: Squats - Press(overhead) - Deadlift
    Thursday: rest/walk.
    Friday: Squats - Bench - Pullups - Weighted Dips
    Saturday: walk/assistance/circuit - basically whatever i feel i need to do
    Sunday: Rest/Walk/Conditioning - depends on how i feel.
    monday: Squats - Press - Deadlift
    tuesday:Rest
    wednesday: Squat - Bench - Pullups - Weighted Dips
    thursday: Conditioning
    friday: Squats - Deadlift - Press
    Saturday: Rest/walk/assistance
    Sunday: Rest (EARNED IT!)

    Thats a fortnight for me. Sometimes i'll change things around, eg steady cardio in a morning instead of a full on circuit.
    or just a rest/relax/strecth day in place of condition, totally depends on my body, specifically my lower back at the moment.
    Again, i just listen to myself, haha.
    I'll also swicth up something every two weeks. By that i mean, the order of the exercise complete, eg, Press first instead of squat etc. But squat is always before deadlift. Sometimes i'll change the grip/angle etc on the pressing stuff too. This is for the mind more than anything, works well to combat boredom, haha.
    On "awesome" days, i'll add some other work, like Ukranian Deadlifts or Romanium Deadlifts on that day, or extra bench work, like DB bench or some inlcline. I add these ATLEAST once a fortnight.

    Also, the amount of hard conditioning workouts i do also depends on my current rate of recovery. On really awesome fortnights, i'll get 5 or 6 in. on bad ones, where i'm tired from my job(usually from travelling) i might only get 1 in...but i always aim for 3 minimum.

    Monday - strength training
    Tuesday - jump rope, or walking
    Wednesday - strength training (working different muscles from Monday)
    Thursday - rest. Hang out with friends. Unless hanging out with friends involves bowling or badminton. Then we do that instead of resting.
    Friday- ideally, get in some more jump rope, but honestly, I probably rest.
    Saturday or Sunday - Strength training on one day, jump rope on the other.

    Jump rope sounds good. How many cals do you burn when you're doing that?
