5-6 days a week. Each day is a major compound lift and a few supporting actors. Today was squats, ghr's, dumbbell romanians, couple of leg extensions/curls. I don't really write or do a routine. I rarely do abs or cardio. Just no need unless competing.

Hey there,

My goal originally was 3 days per week, however I seem to have stuck with approx. 5 or 6 days per week. I do find I get obsessed with something and then I get really bored of it and need something new and then eventually go back to it. At the moment I am just going to my 24 hour gym and doing a mix of cardio and weights.

100 - 150 calories - Stationary Bike at between 22km/h - 30 km/h
100 calories - Treadmill doing a mix fast walking (7km/h), jogging (9km/h) or running (10/11 km/h).
100 calories - Cross Trainer machine 8km/h - 12 km/h on levels between 5-10.

Weights - focusing on bi ceps, tri ceps, chest, back & legs (basically all over) I usually do anywhere between 4-7 machines.

I also love jogging around the block for approx. 30 mins. I love trying to beat my time. My 30 minute track now takes me 24 minutes! I also wear a heart rate monitor to ensure my calories burnt are correct and that my heart rate is always between 145 - 190.

I also love boxing one-on-one (pads & gloves), doing Body Step, Body Pump, Body Attack, Body Combat & FitBox group classes & playing netball and volleyball team sports when the seasons are right.

I hope this might help!

Monday: Rest
Tuesday: Run 8k and weights
Wednesday:Run 10k
Thursday: Dvd/weights
friday:Run 10k
Saturday:Rest
Sunday:Run 15-20k

I dont have a schedule. If i ever make one, I wont follow it . So, my workout is dependent on my mood. I try to get in 3 days of cardio - turbo jam & 2 days of abs/lower body exercises.

My workout for Jan: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/kittuk86/view/jan-2012-workout-that-was-204280

I work 12.5 hr shifts so I work 3 or 4 days (or nights) a week. On work days I walk alot! I average 28,000 steps so I guess this is exercise?!
On my days off I run. I run 3 x a week and try to get 1 jillian or yoga DVD in there too :happy:

Mon- run at gym
Tues- trainer (plus sometimes some cardio)
Wed- run @ gym
Thurs- home DVD, driveway running
Fri- long walk
Sat - outdoor run
Sun- day off but usually some wii just dance with kids or swimming

I'm doing a half marathon training program, which has 4 days of different running (tempo, speed work, times/distances) and 3 "rest days" - I usually have one proper rest day after my long run (usually Sun, nice to have a rest before back to work!) and the other two "rest" days I do a short upper body weight circuit to keep my metabolism working and boost my strength, still giving my lower body recovery time.

Just throwing this out there...... i noticed everyone has really good routines going but I didnt see anyone on a LIFTING program. There are a lot of people doing cardio programs but when it comes to lifting people just customize it seems. I do JIm Wendlers' 5/3/1 with the added hypertrophy program and accessory lifts. starting strength by mark ripptoe or layne nortons p.h.a.t are also great lifting programs.

I keep up with sets,reps and weight with progression every workout. I also alternate different type of lifts for each body part to hit different angles. I follow my own powerlifting program from back in the day that I learned from others. Body building I try to get the pump for each muscle. Cardio is more or less a feel. I do keep a log also.

I work out six days a week. Morning and afternoon (though I just started the morning) I brisk walk for about 10-20 mins in the morning (depending on what I have time for) and do light sit ups, lunges and squats.

In the evenings I brisk walk/jog for 30 mins, jumping jacks, sit ups, squats, lunges, 3 days a week I do strength training with bands and a ball.

Monday- pilates(60)
Tuesday- Swim laps (60)
Wednesday- Just Dance :-) (30)
Thursday- Swim laps (60)
Friday- Pilates (60)

Weekends- take kids for walks/swim/bike ride

I take a day off when I need to but never on a lapswim day and only one day per week.

I'm also doing Wendler's 5/3/1. I've done a variety of strength programs through the years and I like this one as well as any of them. Complex lifts that get me in and out of the gym quickly...with steady progression. I'm cutting fat right now so I also do 5 or 6 days of fasted cardio to start my day....and I do rowing intervals on a Concept 2 rower 3 times per week. I plan to add plyo and kenpo when I get to the last 10 or 12 pounds. I'm almost 50 years old now and I've decided that I will never again take cardio completely out of my routine. I'm getting too old for these intense cutting cycles and I've lost interest in hypertrophy at this point in my life. I'm big enough. I just want to remain lean and strong for the rest of my life. I'm following Clarence Bass's Lean for Life schedule from this point on. --scope

How long have you done 5/3/1? I think its one of the best out there

I switched to it in December when I started this cut. I was looking for something with less volume to better facilitate the reduced carbs. So far, so good. I'm feeling strong. I'm in week 3 of cycle 3. We'll see how long it takes me to hit the first reset.

i run 5 miles for two days then have a rest day. I may do a small warm down run or cycle while resting.
