I aim for 30 to 60 minutes every morning and it varies with the season and weather. This summer, I enjoyed a bicycle ride. Rainy days, I will yoga or hiit or do a whole body weight training routine. On days I don’t feel it, i walk on the treadmill with a book for an hour.

I lift moderately heavy three days a week, about 90 minutes in the gym all the days. Nothing else, I'm a SAHM to 3 little kids, I have no time for anything else.

It either happens in the morning before 12:30 or after 4:30 in the afternoon, because no gyms offer childcare between lunch and after school, apparently.

I exercise in the morning for the same reason @honeybadger155, just getting it done. I sometimes train after work or on breaks, but only if I have to. My work schedule is going to change in September though, so this gets me thinking about changing things up.

I lift three mornings a week and jog/sprint two mornings. I might walk the dogs some afternoons but I don’t do any official exercise in the evenings. There’s a Zumba class and a yoga class I could make it to on weeknights with the right mindset and I really want to make it happen in the fall.

I do a mix of cardio (elliptical) for maybe 15 minutes max to get my heart rate up and then weight training exercises/machines a few days per week for now (e.g. lateral pull down machine, leg adductor/abductor, etc.). I’m hoping to bump it up to at least 4 days per week.

Once per week, I also work with an athletics personal trainer who mixes up my routine but targets my whole body with any of the following and more:
Pushups, squats, planks, deadlifts, assisted pull-ups, crunches, rowing, Bulgarian split squats, curls, etc.

His workout is always 30 minutes but with awesome payoff!

Workout schedule:
Sunday: self care Sundays
Monday: Leg/glutes
Tuesday:back biceps +30minute cross trainer
Wednesday:Abs/shoulders + 30mis cross trainer
Thursday: Legs/glutes (or not depending how sore/tired I am)
Friday: Chest/triceps +30min crosstrainer
Saturday: Parkrun 5km

Still figuring out weight/reps and how best to work with it on the daily

I try to go to bootcamp on Monday and Thursday evenings, and Saturday morning. It's a hard hour long mix of cardio and strength exercises. We used to run 5-6 miles together on Wednesday evenings as well, and I want to start that up again next week.
I've also started doing Rebecca Louise Youtube videos with some friends on other days, 30-40 mins. Or biking, walking with them.

I’ve been working out in the mornings so I can’t use the excuse that there’s too much for me to do at work for me to leave on time to workout. I find I’m much more accountable when I sign up for classes so I’ve been using class pass to go to a variety of classes at a discount.

I walk 10k-20k steps everyday and I weight lift 3x a week. I do strong curves. I do some walking in the morning and then more throughout the day. On gym days I go whenever it’s not crowded according to google so either 7am or 2/3pm.

I do bodyweight exercises 3 days a week and have been doing so for about 6 months on my current programme ( did Strong Curves for the 3 months previous). If I can find the energy / motivation I'll do BodyCombat a couple of times a week too. Anything to enable my ice-cream/cake/Prosecco fix

Mini sidetrack @VanVanDiane , did strong curves require weights or equipment? I've been thinking about starting but not sure of the feasibility due to my very limited exercise equipment inventory.

I work 12-hour rotating shifts (meaning we rotate between day shift & night shift) so sometimes I'll work out at 2am & sometimes I'll work out at 2pm, just depends on the day. Generally though it's strength training followed by some light cardio (elliptical usually).
