    About an hour, split between cardio and lifting.

    Anywhere between 1 hour and 45 minutes. Longer if Im doing cardio or Zumba, and shorter (45 min.) if Im doing lifting, Basically its however long my little girl takes a nap!!! When I take a brisk walk its about 30 minutes, Its too hot in Florida to go any longer.

    1 hour boxercise / 15 mins swim Mon
    45 min boxercise / 30 min weights / 15 mins swim wed
    45 min spin / 1 hour boxercise / 15 mins swim thurs & fri
    1 hour kettlebells or weights / 15 mins swim sat
    Tues & sun rest
    Plus a few 1 hour walks with dogs.
    It seems a lot but its mostly because I like it rather than for the cal burns, plus it means I get to eat more and still lose :-)

    If I can bring myself to do it, maybe 20-30 minutes.
    Sometimes lifting, sometimes yoga, sometimes specialized targeted yoga (core, cross train, etc).

    4 days of the week it's either 30/45/60 mins (depending on the workout/classes I have). I have one long day a week with 1 hour and 45 mins.

    I think as long as you have some activity, it helps a lot because you are already on MFP's recommended reduced calorie intake.

    I try and make it to Zumba three times a week - hopefully four if I'm feeling really ambitious. Zumba lasts an hour and is fun, but light, cardio.

    I'll walk home after Zumba if the weather is ok, which takes another hour.

    That's pretty much it. I do live in the city so I walk to and from public transit (I don't own a car). I'm not sure how much more walking this is compared to the average suburban Jane. My weekend consist of shopping, walking, maybe hiking, generally being on my feet for at least a couple of hours though if the weather is bad I spend my weekend in front of the tv or reading--but, let's be honest, mostly watching tv.

    I'm amazed really at how much people on this website workout. How do you guys find the time?? I am always exhausted after work (and I work a desk job!!), and my body doesn't allow me to function in the morning, so morning workout are absolutely out of the question for me. I show up late enough for work as it is.
