    Is our answer limited to home or gym/weight training?

    Indoors: good old deadlift. Outdoors: cycling. I just wish I lived in a warmer climate so the season wasn’t as limited.

    Rowing, in boats, the skinny ones like in the Olympics (only mine is slow). But I can't do it now, because the boathouse is closed until after the coronavirus lockdown. I'm rowing machining and doing other things at home but It. Is. Just. Not. The. Same.

    Sigh.

    There is so much great yoga on YouTube. I am really enjoying it during the quarantine. Otherwise I would say group fitness with loud music, and a heavy bass line, like Jazzercise.

    I love walking and hiking! Especially early in the morning, and in new neighborhoods.

    Gym: VersaClimbers (full body cardio)
    Home: Aqua bag (functional weightlifting)

    Biking, for me, is more meditation than exercise 🚴🏿‍♀️

    Currently my deadlift, because it is crisp.

    I consider it my weakest lift but oddly it's the one I hold the most records in the USAPL. Perhaps I just see the most wiggle room for improvement in the dead.

    Hip thrusts and deadlifts.

    Also, for home exercises, I really am enjoying kneeling squats.

    I just did an online barre class which consisted of 30 minutes of various slow and controlled squats and leg lifts. My legs are shaking!

    Mine are less typical. Ring Fit Adventure (a game), laser tag, and treadmill.
