    I run 3 or 4 days a week, outside mainly. I started off with C25K last year.
    The other two days I do a JM video, as in 30 Day Shred or NMTZ.

    Mine's varied. Up until I got my HRM I tried to keep it quite strict, doing a certain amount each day and only things I could record effectively.

    Now, I'll walk, cycle, run, do basic aerobics at home...if I can find time to burn 200 calories or more, and if I can be bothered, I will, but I also don't mind if I only manage 30 or 40 calories as long as I'm getting my heart rate up or working my muscles a little.

    I plan to start occasional swimming soon, and there are days (like today) when life gets in the way and I barely have time to stop so instead I just do some quick crunches, don't feel guilty and take it as a 'toning' day.

    It's so much easier adding in variety. I'd also go ice skating if we had the option nearby, or if anyone would come with me! :tongue:

    In a perfect week -

    Cardio kickboxing - 2X's a week - they keep it hopping some days it is a lot of bag work - other days it is little bag work and more HIIT bootcamp style exercises

    Crossfit - 2X's per week (sometimes 3)

    Gym - maybe 3-4 X's a month ($10/month so as long as I go 2-3 times it's worth it to me) - at the gym I might do a little elliptical, some body weight exercises, some resistance training

    I LOATHE running...the days that running is in the plan for Crossfit I have been lucky and managed to weasel my way into being able to row instead....one of these days my luck is going to run out

    Most of the time it looks like a Zumba DVD. Other times it's free step, with or without a weighted vest, hiking, resistance bands, calesthenics and dumbells.

    And I'm starting c25k tomorrow. I'm signed up to run a 5k with my daughter in June. I haven't run in years and wasn't crazy about it when I did. But it does burn a lot of calories and she was so excited for me to run with her that I couldn't say no. Hopefully this will finally take some of the stubborn fat off my legs, though fighting with 8-10 hours of sitting every weekday is a losing battle I think.

    Check out Couch to 5K website; Great program to get running! Sign up for a 5K and push towards that goal. I have been much more successful when I have an event I want to do rather than just pushing for the number to keep inching down on the scale.

    Running internvals has been great too! Not only for speed but you can add in different inclines for time (ex. 5% incline running at a 4.5 mph for 1 minute) then recover with a walk for a minute. It is alot of fun to partner up with someone and then switch off on choosing internals.

    Good Luck to you!

    I am dying from the typos. If I'm lucky, my eyes will start bleeding and save me from having to endure any more of it...
