    You'd think the challenge with rock climbing would be doing pull ups all day, but it's actually mental. The ancient reptile part of your brain gets scared we've you look down sometimes, and seizes up. Then you remember your on a rope, and push through the fear, continue upward. Turns out it's mostly about personal growth.

    Nordic skiing is fun, and winter is beautiful.

    Hiking makes you appreciate things like water you didn't have to filter yourself. It's humbling, in the best way.

    Right now (because the weather's not below freezing yet ;) ), 4 days a week of on-water rowing, two days of spin class, one rest day, with random other fun stuff interspersed in there when the opportunity arises.

    Winter has less total volume: Still the spin classes, some rowing machine but not as much as on-water, and I try to mix in some other activity for variety (swimming, lifting, walking, whatever).

    Run 2-3 days a week.

    Weight lifting 4 days a week.

    Yoga once a week.

    Kick boxing once a month

    I also walk everywhere all the time. I don't drive. So I get roughly 18000-22000 steps a day.

    Wow everybody on here impresses the heck out of me!
    3 days/week run (I would like to work up to 4 days/week)
    ~5 days/week 35 minute hike with dogs
    ~ 2 days/week resistance training (I would like to do 3 days/week)
    I try to walk 2X/day during my 15 minute coffee breaks - but this usually only happens a few times/week

    30 minute morning stretch 3-4-5 times a week
    Run 3 times a week
    Walk 4-6 times a week, usually at least four miles
    Yoga (half hot, half not) 5-7 times a week
    Pilates (hot) 3-4 times a week
    Personal trainer with weights 2 times a week
    2019 steps average is over 15,000 but is on the way up since we lost our dog and I don’t have to worry anymore about offending him by walking without him. Like @WandRsmom I also walk everywhere I go, including to yoga, barbell gym, and various volunteer gigs.

    I don't disagree (speaking to the bolded), but two things to keep in mind:

    1. Most people won't post on a thread like this unless they're proud of their workout schedule, or at least feel that it's respectable. ;)
    2. It's extremely likely that the majority of people replying didn't start their current routine 3 weeks-ish ago. (Some might have started yesterday, feeling committed and enthusiastic, but they may not be sustaining it long term - I'd hope for the best, but we'll see ;) ); many have worked up to a particular workout schedule gradually, over quite a period of time. There will be a few exceptions, of course.

    I have to admit, while I do post on threads like this, I do worry that some people who are newer to exercise will feel somewhat inadequate when the read the whole thread. In reality, they should be proud of starting gradually on a realistic workout schedule that's manageable and energizing now, and that can be expanded as they become fitter and figure out what kinds of activity work best for them.

    I don't have the most impressive workout schedule here by far (far!), but still, it's something I worked up to over a period of years (started being regularly active in about 2001-02).

    I myself have worked up to this over the last 18 mths. ( With the exception of the walking, thats been the last ten years or so)so, I agree. Everyone needs to renember not to compare. Do your own thing and work towards building it up at your own pace.

    Rowing 5 days a week outside (that will move to twice a week in a month or so when it gets too dark to be out early in the morning)
    Cycling 3 days a week inside using a specific plan
    Goal is to row once a week inside this month but so far that hasn't happened - I'm not especially sad.
    Yoga twice a week will start in a month

    Once rowing outside goes down to twice a week, I'll be rowing inside 3 days a week. I'm also hoping to get back into rock climbing in the fall/early winter if I can make it work financially and time wise.

    I get one to two rest days a week at the moment. I need at least one to be really functional and have no shame in taking two.

    Lifting 5 days a week (because I love it😊)
    Running 3 days a week (because I love food😆)
    SUP on spring/summer weekends (because it’s relaxing)
    Tennis once a week (because it’s fun)
    SUP yoga when the water is still enough😊

    I’ve been running about 3 years, the heavy lifting I’ve been doing for 13 months. I’ve got a lot of time on my hands due to being a stay at home mom who’s kids have all moved out!

    CrossFit 5x a week, netball once a week, parkrun, run club and one longer run when the weather is good. Another CrossFit session when it’s bad out until I get my treadmill. Walk the dog for 45 minutes twice a day and at home yoga even I can.
