    6 days/week for me.

    I prefer working out at home with DVDs. Been pretty consistent over the last 10 months to my own shock and amazement.
    I've completed 1 round of Turbo Fire and 1 round of ChaLEAN Extreme. Tried Insanity but hated it.
    Right now I'm doing a hybrid of Turbo Fire and Brazilian Butt Lift.

    MY WEEK:
    M - BBL Strength Legs & Butt (70min)
    T - Turbo Fire Cardio (45-60min)
    W - BBL Strength Legs & Butt (70min)
    Th - Turbo Fire Cardio (45-60min)
    F - REST
    Sat - BBL Strength Legs & Butt (70min)
    Sun - Turbo Fire Cardio (45-60min)

    5-6 days a week. I alternate 30 minutes running intervals & 30 minutes various cardio (bicycle, arc trainer, crossramp) and strength training with 30-45 minutes cardio. Strength training consists of cardio in between sets of weight lifting, including: jumping rope, high knees, running up and down 1/2 flight of stairs, plank jacks, mountain climbers. For strength, I do bicep curls, dead lifts with hammer curls, various planks - some with weights, lots of squats and lunges, plie squats, crunches, bicycle crunches, scissor kicks...

    M-F - minimum 15 minutes on the elliptical, but usually I can talk myself into at least 30-45 minutes once I get started.

    7 days a week - 15 minute workout of Sun Salutation cycles, plus extra if I am having pain that needs addressed.

    Also, at some point during the week, I attend a formal yoga class of at least one hour. This week it was a 3 hour class.

    I do... Usually depends on how I feel but do try and weight train about 3 to 4 day a week. With cardio I swim 5 days for 40 to 50 mins of laps and the treadmill try and do 5 day. This a Monday thru Friday and week and weekends don't do much besides cleaning and my Wii and trying to get up at least 1 of those days go and walk. Try to do a mile.

    I do try to...
    Sunday: 2 hours of roller derby practice (about 60-90 minutes is active)

    Monday: off

    Tuesday: 2 hr. practice

    Wednesday: off

    Thursday: 2 hr. practice

    Friday: 1 hr. of videos- all are The Firm: "Tight Buns & Killer Legs" (30 min), "30 Minute Cardio", and/or "Complete Aerobic & Sculpting" (60 min) - this is the day where I intentionally work until I'm terribly sore. I've just recently gone up in weight and use 12 & 8 lb dumbbells while doing these videos.

    Saturday: 1 hr. of either running or stationary bike with some weight work- arms & abs

    and then back to practice on Sunday

    Of course... this is in a perfect world. My team usually gets bumped by private parties (they pay the rink more than we can afford to) at least once a week in the winter.

    Wow, so much variety! I should probably start mixing it up. Currently I am on my elliptical about 5 times a week. It's watching TV while I exercise that motivates me, so this is what I do - for now. "24" is a great workout show!

    If you workout 5 days a week you're amazing and keep it up. Let me know what your routine looks like, Im a personal trainer so im interested in getting a lot of viewpoints on how and why people do what they do at the gym. Feel free to add me.

    Mon Wed and Friday I usually go walking anywhere from 30 to 60 mins and add some abs workouts or I do the 30 day shred workouts on those days just to mix it up or depending on how I feel.

    Tues and Thurs I have aerobics in the morning and martial arts in the evening. Hence why I try to take it easy with walk days for those other days.
    I'm doing aerobics just to up my cardio right now because its a little lacking and also because since I've made blue belt, the work outs have intensified for martial arts.
