    I strength train three days a week and walk 6 or 7. I'm planning to add some core work and yoga on my non strength training days.

    I have four horses and two dogs. All need exercise. I ride, and clean the barn. I walk the dogs. I also have an organic garden, and grow much of what we eat through the year.

    My big things right now are walking around the neighborhood or local trails, as well as Zumba on my Wii and also 10 minute solutions kickboxing (which I adore) and that one is on Netflix right now if you have it. I want to start Insanity soon.

    Also, for cardio, try a boot camp - much more interesting than traditional cardio machines at the gym. I do Pure Power Boot Camp if you live in NYC area...

    I do Crossfit 3x per week, and do two days of cardio on my non-Crossfit days. Usually Zumba or group cycle, swimming or the eliptical cross trainer. If I am workng out at home, I walk on my treadmill or do the Abs Diet workout video. The cardio workout is not too long and is a nice one with no equipment needed.

    If you have digital cable, you can probably find some workout videos on demand. I used to do 30 day shred using that. I don't think they have the whole series, but it was good enough for my purposes.

    DVDs, mostly Jillian Michaels. I need a lot of variety to stay engaged, so I have 5 or 6 of her videos and do them 5-6/week and choose which to do based on how much time I have and whether I want more strength or more cardio.

    I am currently doing the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. You can find them on You Tube. there are 3 levels about 25 minutes for each one. There are also at WalMart for about 9 bucks. I lost 4 inches and 3 lbs the first time I went thru them. I am currently on Level 2 for the 2nd time around and loving it, but this time I have been adding 5 to 10 minutes of cardio (stationary bike or eliptical or both) before or after I do the video, depending on how I feel.
    It is recommended that you don't do the shred everyday in a row, but most people do the first time. I am currently doing it only 4 or 5 times a week and take at least 2 days off to rest.
    Good luck in whatever you choose!

    I also like some of the harder Leslie Sansone DVDs such as Fast 4 miles which does intervals, jogging and some core work.

    What is 5/3/1?
  • Summer5555
    Summer5555 Posts: 104 Member
    Weights 3 times a week, cardio for an hour the other 3 times a week and a day off. Cardio is a mixture of running, walking, spinning and rowing. Plus an additional daily 30 minute afternoon walk with my chubby lab which is more of a stroll so I don't log this.

    Edit. Oops forgot Pilates once a week to stretch everything out.

    What is 5/3/1?

    strstd.com <-- it's easier to check it out yourself than have me give my horrible explanation, but basically it's a four-week weight routine where each day is planned based on your 1 rep-maxes for deadlift, squat, bench press, and press.

    Just the stuff at home: Zumba, running/walking outside, weights, look up youtube dance covers and learn them xD. It sounds weird but dancing is so much fun and an awesome workout. Also look up Tiffany Rothe on youtube, she has TONS of free workout videos, everything from cardio, boxing, strength, core, abs, buns, seriously everything....she rocks! Look up "Pump it up" as well on youtube, that whole series will make your fat cells cry in a wonderfully 80's attitude. ;D Have fun and good luck!

    I have almost all the turbo jam DVDs and am currently on my 2nd week of turbo fire!! I love it... It's cardio and some core and ab DVDs all in one set... Chalene is amazing ... I love that she does the entire workout with you unlike most trainers that do about 5 minutes and watch everyone else and tell them what they're doing wrong lol.. Deff check it out... You burn a TON of calories and it's so fun!!
