I am often going on to Instagram to get work out ideas, as I follow a few trainers who post videos. I work out 5-6 days a week and like to mix it up & try new things. I thought I would start a discussion and have people post their work outs. Maybe give each other some good ideas! If I stick with the same thing over and over I get booorred.
MY WORK OUT TODAY:
30 min on treadmill, alternating speeds walking & running
Squats with kettlebell
Overhead press to squat with 40lb. bar
Mountain climber/burpee/pushup circuit
10 minutes of stretching to end
Total time: 1hr. 10 min.
Age: 47
Current weight: 162
Goal weight: 142

My exercises are based on the book Strength Training for Women by Joan Pagano. Her exercises mostly top out at 12-lb dumbbells, but I've been going heavier as my muscles adapted.

Ys & Ts on stability ball

Hmm, it's Tuesday, so it must've been spin class. Tomorrow, Wednesday, it'll be rowing (on-water if the weather doesn't defeat me - it's almost end of season here in the soon-to-be-frozen North).
M-W-F-Sa rowing in season, Tu-Th spin all year, various things replace the rowing in Winter (including a bit more sluggish hibernating than I do in Summer, realistically).16 -
Spin class for me today, too!!!16

Yesterday 30 minutes elliptical, some abs/core and low weight full body resistance, various things. I'm doing a 10k Thanksgiving so have switched my usual gym split to just 2 days a week full body, as I'm trying to up my mileage and running 3-4 times a week until the race. Today I'm doing 5 miles and stretching and that should be it.12
