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.

I do Circuit Training with weights Mon, Tues, Thurs and Fri. Rest days are Wed and Sun. Cardio day is Sat. But I run 6 miles a day 6 days a week as well. So Sunday is really my only rest day.

I do work out 5 days a week, but I like to mix it up.

My current workout routine for the week is:

Monday - Pilates in AM & Gym in PM (weights, cardio)
Tuesday - Gym in AM (weights and cardio) & small run or Gym in PM (cardio)
Wednesday - Pilates in AM & Gym in PM (weights, cardio)
Thursday - Gym in AM (weights and cardio) & small run or Gym in PM (cardio) or REST in PM
Friday - Gym in PM (cardio)
Saturday - Gym in AM (weights and cardio)
Sunday - Long run or Gym (cardio) or REST DAY

When I start my marathon training though, most of it will be running and I'd still like to do 3 weight lifting sessions a week or so. I suppose I should throw in a rest day somewhere as well. I just get too restless sometimes.

I have just started working out 5 days a week. I am having trouble figuring out what to do each day though. I do 30 minutes cardio and then I kind of get lost. Any help would help me!

You just replied to 8 pages of help. Read this thread.

THis is great for getting ideas to switch things up....

Almost everyday I am shredding (30 DS level 2) with my husband before the kids get up. On the weekends, I tack on another 2 minute zumba wii session. (although the kids are seriously annoyed at my honing on their wii time)

At least 2xs per week on my way to or from the school drop-off, I take a 30 minute hike -- am timing myself and trying to get it done faster every time. I like the quick hits outside rather than phoning in the 50+ minute sessions on a machine.

Lastly I play tennis for at least an hour 4 days a week...with varying intensity. I am a beginner but it has been really engaging to take on a new sport. I kind of view the tennis lessons as an alternative to working out with a trainer.

Monday doubles 1.5 hours
Tuesday private lesson 1 hour (intense)
Wed and Fri 1 hour clinic (not intense at all)

On a great week, I will throw in a yoga class. When tennis session ends will replace with some spinning classes at the gym.

Happy Training.
