in Fitness and Exercise
I LOVE working out. It has never been a problem for me. Out of control portions and emotional eating is the source of my weight problem. I'm an athlete inside this fat girl body and I'm determined to let her shine.

So because I'm always looking for something new to do and I'm nosey, please share you workout schedule and/or your favorite/most effective workouts.

Monday
Zumba - 60 minutes
Pilates Sculpt - 60 minutes

Tuesday
Stretch Therapy - 60 minutes

Wednesday
Zumba - 60 minutes
Core Conditioning - 60 minutes

Thursday
Bar Blast / Body Pump - 60 minutes

I don't go to the gym on Friday, Saturday and Sunday but I try to incorporate fun activities into my weekend like hiking or bowling.

Thanks for sharing!

Tanya

    Girl, I'm trying to find my groove again but when I'm on my game, I usually run and do spin classes for the majority of my cardio. I've gotten so out of my schedule that I don't even know where to begin anymore!

    M-F I do the 30 Day Shred with some sort of cardio. Usually 20 minutes walking at about 3.5.
    Sa/Su I either do 30 Day Shred or P90X cardio, depending on what my husband is up for.

    Based on what others are doing, looks like I need to step up my game!

    By far my most effective workout routine was when I did the P90X lean routine and ran a couple miles every day on top of the 6 days/a week with P90X.

    I have been trying to mix it up a little, because I have been stuck for like 2 months with the last 6 pounds to lose, and I just can't get it off!

    I have tried decreasing and increasing both my workouts, and calories, in every combination I can think of. I eat really clean, and I think that my body is just programmed to be stuck here... very discouraging with all of my dedication!

    OMG - all y'all are making me feel LAME with my little workout schedule!! The funny part is I KILL myself to get there every day - work/house/kiddos homework/dinner/hubby - and when I go I can't really stay longer than an hour. Here's what I do:

    Sunday:

    Either 5-mile walk with 2 neighborhood gal friends - or if it's raining 20 min elliptical - 30 min treadmill intervals - abdominal crunches & stretch

    Monday:
    Same as above

    Tuesday:
    Zumba Class or Vinyassa Yoga - depending on what time I can go

    Wednesday:
    Bodypump if I get there in time, or 20 minutes ellipical & upper body weights routine

    Thursday:
    30 min RPM glass, or if I didn't do Body pump, 20 minutes ellipical & lower body weights routine

    Friday:
    As sweaty as I can get, on whatever machine I'm in the mood for, one hour.

    Saturday:
    Bodypump or Zumba

    Monday-31 minutes eleptical, 14 minutes treadmill (45 minutes), Strength training arms (25-30 minutes)
    Tuesday-31 minutes eleptical 29 minutes treadmill
    Wednesday-31 minutes Eleptical, 14 minutes treadmill, Strength training legs (25-30)
    Thursday-31 minutes eleptical 29 minutes treadmill
    Friday-31 minutes eleptical, 14 minutes treadmil, Strength training back/stomach (25-30)

    If I go on Saturday I usually just do cardio-31 minutes eleptical 29 minutes treadmill, but usually Saturday and Sunday is a free day for me.

    I am going to be alternating these around in another week...On my cardio only days, I might choose to add in some bike exercises, or cut treadmill time in half and add the bike in.

    Can you tell I like the eleptical? Each week I add on another minute. I can average 5.5-6.5 mph and burn over 300 calories on it.

    I'm all about less is more... I'm loosely following the fitness principles from Primal Blueprint. Every week is different for me as far as the days go, but each week I'm looking to get in:

    2- total body lifting sessions (lift heavy things)
    1- HIIT (sprint)

    I also try to get some low intensity excercise on days that I'm not working out (move slowly). This might mean walking or some sports, but nothing too intense. Last month I tried very hard to eat more bacon and this was my fitness plan, and I had the best wieght loss month I've had on my current journey. Quality over quantity!!!

    WOW! These workouts are impressive...I'm inspired.

    P90X seems to be pretty popular but it scares me, and I really enjoy taking classes and interacting with other people. Maybe I'll borrow the P90X discs from one of my friends and give it a try!

    Kind of confused here...so you were intentionally trying to eat more bacon to lose weight? How is this possible?

    I'm just about a month in. This is what my week looks like:

    Monday/Wednesday/Friday : 30-40 minutes treadmill C25K and 30 minutes of pushups, crunchs, leg lifts, ect.
    Tuesday/Thursday/Sunday : Gym day, 75 minutes of cardio, usually 20 bike, 30 elliptical, 20 treadmill/track, although I stay longer on the elliptical if I have binging sins to work off.
    Saturday is my rest day :)

    I'm started to work towards weight training, but haven't incorporated it into my routine yet.

    I am the same as you. I love working out and being active.... buut I love eating too and that's why I am heavier than I want to be. I am a triathlete and do not always stick to the exact distances in this schedule because cycling and triathlon have seasons and race dates dictate where I am in the schedule, but here it is:

    Monday - Cycling 20-30 miles (about an hour and 15 minutes to an hour and 30 minutes)

    Tuesday - Running anywhere from 2 - 4 miles or interval/speed training

    Wednesday - Same as Monday

    Thursday - To the gym for a short 15-20 minute treadmill run, an hour of weight lifting, and 1000 - 2000 meters of swimming (20-40 minutes)

    Friday - Rest or run 15-20 minutes

    Saturday - Cycling 40-70 miles

    Sunday - Long Run - 4-10 miles Swim 1000-2000 meters

    Check out Primal Blueprint or any information you can find about Paleo. Basically, I'm eating meat (including lots of bacon), veggies. That's pretty much all I eat... My calories come from Fat (45%) and Protien (40%), and I eat few Carbs. Fats keep you full (and happy), and the weight just flies off!!

    EAT MORE BACON + EXERCISE LESS = LOSE MORE WEIGHT :happy:
