Need a routine! My thoughts are doing Cardio - Monday - Friday. Weight Training M-W-F. What is your schedule??

    I just started doing the 100 push-ups, 200 sit-ups, and 200 squats programs Mon, Wed, and Fri. On Tues, Thurs, and Sat I'm doing the 'Couch to 5k' program. And whatever else I feel up to doing.

    I'm currently following the New Rules of Lifting for Women routine, doing three days a week of that.

    Weights on M/W/F, Cardio Machines on Tu/Th, Saturday is Zumba, Rest Sunday.

    I usually do 10 minutes of warmup cardio and 5-10 minutes of cooldown cardio on lifting days as well.

    How is this working for you and how long have you been doing it. I got the book and did not start yet.
