We are all saying hi and being friendly, which is great! However, I'd like to know what everyone is doing for exercise. At home programs? Gym? Running? I'm currently doing Insanity: Max 30. Anyone else doing this or a similar program?
I walk every day, I do yoga 2 or 3 times a week, I do HIIT a couple times a week and do some strength training. Not following any specific plan though3 -
Standard week:
Sunday - circuit training class, walk of some sort
Monday- walk 1, run 3 or 4
Tuesday- run 1, circuit training class
Wednesday - walk 1, run 3 or 4
Thursday - circuit training class
Friday; walk run, run 5
Saturday: personal trainer, maybe a walk.

My current exercise is an almost unplanned mixture of hiking; scuba diving; climbing; strength training; running and yoga. I have a home gym and a home climbing wall, which has helped a lot over the last year!
Climbing and scuba are probably my favourites.5 -

Hi there,
So initially I was doing Zumba at home but now I'm walking 6 miles a day, 3 miles in the am before work and 3 miles in the evening. I also do a 30 min upper body weights exercise from a fella I follow on YouTube. Workouts like P90X and Insanity are a little too much for right now, but maybe one day... 😊2 -

I've been here since 2017, though.. and I was definitely not 36 then.
So good to have you finally join us! I have been stalking this board for a few years now.
Hey, you! I see a few people I recognize from Chit-Chat.

Working out can be such a challenge on bigger bodies!😳. I only hope that I can push through and get to the coveted other side. Hoping to make a few friends on here to get that much needed support to keep pushing & vise versa 🙏🏾💪🏾. Oh and btw, good morning all 😊3

Oh boy! I tweaked my inner thigh knee area. Trying to stretch it out. My hips are tight, need to work on flexibility. Anyone out there who can relate?2

I am thinking about doing two workouts per day; one in the morning and one in the evening. Anyone have experience with combining a beachbody program with Insanity Max 30?1

Definitely! I need to do more stretching0 -

If you can, that would probably be good. How much do you currently do? Perhaps increase it gradually at the beginning1 -

I agree. Both can be done but do it gradually, not to over do it on your body. I know walking is a far cry from an Insanity work out, but I just recently bumped my walk up from 3 mi in the am to now 3 mi in the am and then another 3 mi in the pm and I can totally feel the difference on my body. It's getting a little ether though the more I do it. Hope this helps, and sending you good vibes for whatever decision you make 😊3 -
Turning 45 next week. Would really like to lose 27lbs through Summer. I know it's doable, I just have terrible food discipline. Making a new MFP for like the 100th time!1

What's the exercise plan for today? I’m going for a hike with my husband. Sun is out, perfect day to hit the trails! However you decide to move, have fun doing it.1

I had karate circuit training followed by a 5km run/walk/chat with my friend2

This is what happened while on my hike. Came across two pet bunnies being walked on leashes and wild artichoke growing along the path. Nice!2

I hiked 9 miles and gained almost 2,000 feet in elevation.3 -

Cardio which basically include, power walks, light inclined jogging (can’t jog fast cos of my ankles), punching bag (good for full body workout and builds the core)
