  • Right now I do some sort of workout everyday.
    Right now I do 30 minutes a day at least of either elliptical trainer or treadmill at an 8 inch incline. Sometimes I'll do 15 minutes of both.
    I just recently started these workouts so I'm still working on incorporating more into my workout schedule but right now I'm sticking to this.

    I do an aqua aerobics class 5 days a week which is mostly squats, dips, chin ups and pushups in intervals with cardio. 3 mornings a week I run, 2 mornings I swim and the weekends I don't do any structured exercise, I just take my boys swimming or bike riding or chase them around the park.

    I workout 6 days a week

    Sun - 10 min treadmill warm up, back and core, 10 min cardio cooldown

    Mon - 10 min treadmill warm up, chest and biceps, 10 min cardio cooldown

    Tuesday - 60 minutes of cardio mix of treadmill/arctrainer/stairclimber

    Wed - rest

    Thurs - 10 min treadmill warm up, triceps and shoulders, 10 min cardio cooldown

    Friday - 60 mins of cardio mix of treadmill/arc trainer/stairclimber

    Saturday - 10 min treadmill warm up, legs and core, 10 min cardio cooldown

    I use to just do all cardio, slowly and surely transitioning to more weights. Pretty soon I will cut my cardio down to one day. I change up the exercises usually doing 4 sets moderate weights, first set is light weight high rep warm up. I was doing a couple different muscle groups in a cycle and now I just stick to one muscle group and three rotating exercises for the four sets. I try to get it done in 60 minutes, but usually a couple minutes longer.
  • I am a waitress so I walk about 3 or 4 hours each day I work so that is my 3 day a week workout and I am student so I walk at school but when I get home I dance and play with my pets and I sometimes do push ups or crunches, I am hoping to get a gym membership soon so I can work out even more!!!!!!

    Like some variety otherwise it gets tedious so my currnet routine is....

    M - 45 mins with PT in the gym with training partner
    T - 45 mins Spin class
    W- 45 mins Spin class + 30 mins group pre-season rugby training with my 13 yr old son - sprints and agility training
    T - 45 mins Circuit class
    F - 45 mins Spin class
    S - 60 mins Spin enduro class

    Spin is absolutely the best way for me to lose weight and I have a short attention span when it comes to exercise so it keeps me focused. Running works too but is sooooo boring! Definitely believe women must do strength training along with cardio to maximise weight loss.

    At 45 it has been really hard to get any extra weight to shift but counting calories and regular gym attendance is finally starting to work! Want to reach goal weight and then commit to a regular exercise rountine rather than all or nothing as has been my hait in the past.

    I don't have a set day I do any particular exercise but it goes pretty much as follows.
    *Usually Mon. Warm up walk,half mile, run 3 miles easy pace cool down half mile. Then lower body or upper body workout. would include squats sets,lunge sets, push up sets,pull up sets,planks etc. It would last about one hour.
    *Tue. four to five mile run with a warm up and cool down before and after. In the evening I teach a strength training class for one hour. And I do work out with them. It varies from lower body to upper body work out. Starting out with a 15 min ab work out. In all the exercises we use our own body weight and or light weights. Ending in yoga stretching.
    *Wed. Light walk for 10 min. elliptical run for 30. Upper body workout or just abs and push ups.
    *Thur. Easy 2 mile run then speed drills on treadmill. Teach class class at night for one hour. Same as Tue. But always work something different.
    *Fri. Warm up walk half mile, 5k pace 3 mile run outside depending on weather.
    *Sat. Easy run 3 miles or elliptical run 30 min. and do an upper body work out push ups,pull ups. shoulders, abs,etc.

    7 days a week...run for 2 hrs and 04 mins every Sat, run 4 to 5 miles and 30 mins of stairmaster or elliptical on Mon and Wed. I do 60 to 75 mins of stairmaster or elliptical Tues, Thurs, Fri and Sun. I lift minimum 3 days a week. I work my stomach 4 days a week and do min of 200 pushups everyday. During the spring and summer, I ride my bike 18-30 miles twice a week and swim when I am training for a tri. I also use a self propel walking mower to mow my yard...2 and half acres. Also do body pump, zuma and bod flow when I can. Body flow classes really help my running.

    I am a bit stuck for time so I work out at home and at the gym.

    My warm up is 5 mins on the step machine at level 7 and speed 3.2, my stretching is 15 mins of yoga type intensive stretches followed by 5 mins at least Ab work and as many press ups as I can manage and on the treadmill I am working on C25K. That said here is what I do day to day;

    Sunday - Family Swim, 10 mins General Aerobics, 20 mins intensive Ab work, 20 mins Target Tonning Arms and bums, 10 Mins Yoga Balances and sometimes 20 mins Yoga

    I've yet to set foot in a gym in my life, but I do exercise every day : )
    Monday to Friday- at least 2 hours of cross country hiking, and half an hour of jogging depending on how difficult the hike was. Oh, and 15 minutes of pilates in the morning to wake myself up.
    Saturday- Mountain hike of at least 20-30km, usually carrying a backpack load of 10kg
    Sunday- Theoretically my day of rest, but I get jittery if I don't go for a walk.

    I'm actually in training to do a long hike of 3000km... you guys have any suggestions for training that doesn't involve big scary machines? :)

    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.
  • 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.

    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.
