I do 5-6 days a week. (But not this past week...only did 4. Yikes). I have quite a bit of fat left to lose and do lots of compound moves in strength training.
Sun OFF
Mon PT or on own, Strength (lifting and calisthenics) + a few intervals on treadmill
Tues Intervals on TM or elliptical
Wed PT, high intensity cardio and weights 45 min
Thurs Light cardio or OFF
Fri PT, strength (lifting and calisthenics) + a few intervals on treadmill
Sat Light cardio and/or core focus
For strength training, I do kettlebells, dumbbells, squats, lunges, etc. I will try anything. I like to do new things so that I don't get bored. My trainer sometimes does strength and agility and game-oriented stuff too. It's fun.0 -
I work out everyday. Circuit training and walking/jog for 6 days a week.
And one day out of the week, I'll just do walking and/or running.0 -
Mon - training session
Tues - 30 - 45 min walk/run on the track by campus
Wed - training session
Thurs - 30+ cardio, 10 weights, 10 abs
Fri - 30+ cardio, 10 weights, 10 abs
Sat - training session
Sun - yoga OR 25+ cardio, 10 abs0 -
Monday - Rest day (however now I spin on Mondays... shame on me! :blushing: )
Tuesday - Mid-long run 5-9miles
Wednesday - 45min cross + weights
Thursday - Speed training run 3-5miles (3 week rotation of pace, intervals, tempo runs)
Friday - Rest
Saturday - Long run 9-18miles
Sunday - 45-60mins recovery cross + weights
This my training schedule for a 30K race I am running in March. I don't consider it gospel, and I'm known to skip a workout once every 2 weeks or so. It happens. Life gets in the way. Right now I'm working out 6 days a week because I can't tear myself away from spinning, but ideally 5 days a week would be optimal.0 -

I do 30DS 6 days a week (soon to be ripped in 30 or killer buns and thighs - not decided yet!) and I've just added C25K in on m/w/f - no access to a gym unfortunately :-(0

Currently in Phase 1 of P90X2,
Sunday = X2 Core (Core workout using fitness ball, med balls)
Monday = Plyocide (Jump training, combined with mind drills)
Tuesday - Recovery & Mobility ( Stretching - Foam roller workout)
Wednesday = X2 Total Body & Abs (Resistance Training w/ Instability incorporated)
Thursday = X2 Yoga
Friday = X2 Balance & Power ( resistance moves while balancing)
Saturday = Recovery & Mobility ( Stretching - Foam roller workout)
So far really difficult for me, the balance and coordination is slow but sure. I'm challenged and looking forward to the result!0 -
I attend Zumba or Cardio pump class 3x/week. Then I add at least 2 more days either swimming, biking or using one of the zillion workout tapes I have at home. I also try and take a walk on the weekends or yard work.
I think the key is flexibility in the schedule and variety in the choices. I can workout at the gym, at home, or walk the neighborhood or park.
I had a personal trainer when I first joined the gym. Besides the $$, I stopped using him because it felt too scheduled. I needed to be able to pop in the gym around a crazy, hospital and class schedule.
As a nurse, I find I learn so much from the personal trainers that I can pass on to my patients!0 -
I did a round of PX90 (1) and loved it. But you are right, trying to get the coordination on some of the moves is crazy! Keep it up!0

5-6 days a week here. Normally every day at the gym I do 60 min on the treadmill on the weight loss setting and beef up my speed every week or so. When I come home I'll switch up either a Turbo Jam Video or Pilates.0

I workout 5 to 6 days a week. I do a different form of cardio each time. Before I do my cardio I do my weight training. I will do upper body one day, lower the next and always give a group of muscles a day off between working them again.0
