What is your exercise routine?

I do mostly cardio (walking 3 miles a day, running 6 miles 4-5 days a week, stationary bike once a week) but with occasional yoga, light weights, or calisthenics. It has allowed me to maintain a 50 pound loss for several years. I know I should be doing more weights, but find it very boring so usually skip it.

I don't know how to answer this poll accurately.

I said "cardio only", but cardio can be a huge range of very diverse things, some of them more strength-challenging than others. It's weird to me that we lump them all in one term as if they all had identical physical effects.

Strength exercise isn't necessarily just weights or calisthenics either.

HIIT started as a pace of diverse classic cardiovascular activities, but the term is used so widely now for so many exercise modalities - many of them strength challenging but fast paced - that it's hard to guess what a person is doing when they use that term.

I still think HIIT should be considered a pacing (or intensity) strategy for many types of exercise activities, not as a separate exercise type.

I row, boats when I can, machines when I must (Winter, mostly). Most of any muscle mass I have above the average for my demographic comes from rowing. Rowing is a bit more strength challenging than some other forms of cardio, and it's also mildly progressive. It can produce strength and muscle gains, but much more slowly than proper lifting will.

I don't enjoy lifting, so I don't do enough of it, just sometimes short durations in Winter, but do some bodyweight strength exercise slightly more often. I stretch semi-regularly - some most days.

I bike some, too: Paved trails in Summer, stationary bike in Winter.

Most of the time now days, I row or bike 5-6 days a week. In summer, usually 4 or more rowing sessions weekly, 1-2 bike rides or sometimes other stuff. Winter's usually closer to half rowing days, half biking, with longer bike sessions because it's not as intense as rowing. This Winter, I biked much more because I was intensity limited after an injury - medical limit at first, fatigue limit later. I also skipped more days than usual, same reason.

I do this stuff mostly for fun, a little bit motivated by health but not much. I account for the calories because performance requires fuel, but don't really think of it as a weight loss strategy for me because I had a similar activity load for the last dozen years while I was staying overweight/obese.

It has big benefits in the fun and happiness dimensions, or I probably wouldn't do it, lazy hedonist that I am. It also pays off big time in health, independence (I'm old), and physical ease of daily life activities . . . even though those aren't my direct motivation.

I voted cardio and weights on the same day - my routine is cycle commuting 5 days a week and hitting legs with weights twice a week. (squats, rdl, calf raises etc)

I do cardio/weights/ yoga /calisthenics

Results are maintaining weight and keeping my muscle tone and energy up..

At least 2-3 cardio sessions per week, (some have weights in the cardio sessions like SoulCycle.

1-2 days weights at gym. 2 yogas or super stretch a week.

I try to do a 2 min plank every day. I don’t have a typical week… I work a combination of the above around my work schedule… When I’m traveling I tend to do more calisthenics.

Cardio and stretching, with light weights. Almost daily
