I lift three days a week full body.

I have been doing more cardio lately walking or jogging 4or5 days. Partially I'm heavy on the cardio because I'm doing a half marathon in October. The idea of training for something other than weight loss really appeals to me. Its much more motivating to me.

I also have one or 2 rest days.

I'm working on endurance now and the lifting is there just to preserve some muscle mass.

I haven't stalled yet but my weight loss did drop off a pound or two last month.

I just recently started saying the hell with the scale and started lifting again. I still do 30 minutes of cardio post weigh lifting workout. I work back and biceps together and chest and triceps together. Legs are honored with their own day. I hit my shoulders and other parts with my different exercises I do. I lift 6 days a week. Rest day on Sunday, except for cardio which I do 7 days a week. I lost 133 pounds going only cardio in a little over 10 months, but felt like I was the weakest I've ever been in my life. Now getting back on track with strength training. I feel so much better lifting again, not only mentally but physically. Ok guys, take care and god bless.

I get most of my exercise from bike riding, walking and occasional Wii fit. I would like to start some kind of strength training, but I don't want to go to a gym. I've been looking into kettle bells. Does anyone use kettle bells? It seems like it's something I can benefit from at home. I appreciate some feedback.

I'm working with a trainer at the gym so this is some of his advice to me: Muscle confusion is your friend! Change up your exercise routine every 2 weeks. Go to the machines you never go to or that you hate and force yourself to try them. Change the time of day of your exercise - If you always exercise for an hour in the morning 4 days a week, change for 2-3 weeks to 1.5 hours 3 days in the afternoon. Or, morning one day, afternoon next. If you always do the same level on the elliptical or the treadmill or any cardio machine, change it up...use the random setting. Instructor led spinning is also great because no 2 classes are identical. He also has me doing super-sets which have been melting the weight off me (14 lbs in 5 weeks). This is weight lifting but no rest between sets. Instead alternate exercises with a complimentary set of something else. One of my groups today was alternating arm laying chest press and seated dumbell flys, 3 sets each. In between groupings of exercises go to the stair stepper or elliptical and do a 1 minute sprint then on to the next grouping of 2 complimentary exercises. And then remember a protein intake recovery within 30 minutes after finishing your workout.
I'll be posting more advice from my trainer as I go along so other mid-40's guys are invited to add me to their friend list.

Cardio 6-7 days a week. Either elliptical in the gym at work or running with Kip the Wonder Dog at home.
Strength training 3-4 days a week. Use a bowflex and some free weights.
Calisthenics the days I don't do strength training. Working on the abs mostly

I love cardio and I despise lifting. I'm sure I will get into lifting this winter, but the idea of exercising indoors when it is this beautiful out just makes me sad. I even suspended my gym membership until late fall. I just won't go in there so there isn't any point.
