I go to the gym 4-5 times a week on average (unless i'm sick or something)

I spend at least an hour there, and I used to spend a lot of time on the elliptical (30 mins) and the rest strength training (weight lifting, situps, calf presses etc.) but now I'm doing the couch to 5k program (Just finished my first week, yayyy!!) and i'm exhausted! Running really exhausts me, and interestingly i'm only burning 1/3 of the calories on the treadmill than I normally burn on the elliptical . I'ts so frustrating....

So what's YOUR routine?

I am a walker!! I love walking its more gentle on the knees. I also do yoga every day its a great stress reliever warm up the body an lengthen an tones the muscle.

Right now I am waiting to get the Tresclimber by bowflex.

I walk, walk, walk! Inside, outside, I work in a university, and with all the extensions they've done, it's a nice walk all the way around. I get up from my desk at 10 every morning and walk for 15 minutes, then at lunch, I walk for 20. At night, I'll walk the dog, do a yoga dvd, or my Leslie Sansone "Walk Away the Pounds" 2 mile dvd.

I would love to get a Treadclimber!!! So jealous

I work out six days a week on a bowflex, alternating muscle groups, and then resting on Sunday. When the weather improves I will start walking.

I try to get to the gym 4-5x per week. I usually do 2-3 spin classes and then an aerobic class or power barbell class. Last week it was so nice out that I walked for an hour instead and loved it, sometimes I feel I am in a rush to get to the gym that I forget about the great outdoors. I commit to walking more, when it is safe to do so because of the craploads of snow we have. I just finished a personal training session today - I had 6 PT sessions included in my surgery fee and there is something to be said for somone sitting 10 inches away from you counting, pushing and making sure you have good form...........I might consider even doing 1 a week after I finish the ones that I have left.

I think anything that gets you moving and your heart elevated a bit is great, and work from there!!!

I love the Leslie Sansone video's. They are super easy and you will be amazed at the workout your getting all while walking in place in your own home. She has all different kinds of video and all of them are great. I highly recommend them.

I do Insanity four days a week and run two other days. I rest on most Sundays unless we make our days activities "active". That's a lot easier without football

I havent worked out for the last 40 some pounds. I just started with my wii on a game called Golds Cardio workout. Its a big step from not doing anything and it is fun!

elliptal i burn more too. I just started spin and upping the resistance in elliptical and i burn even more

WOW-your exercise program is great. Good for you.

I exercise 5x a week. 2 of those days I do a 1 hour circuit of elliptical/weights. The other 3 days I do Couch to 5k for 30 minutes.

Monday: Ease into 5K (on week 6)

Tues: Zumba

Wed: Derby Lite (Roller Derby, without the hitting each other)

Thurs: Zumba or Aerobics

Fri: Personal Training 30min (strength/core) and Ease into 5K

Sat: Zumba

Sun: Zumba, if I didn't get to it on Sat, if I did walk the dogs

I alternate hiking 1 hour every other day with staying home and doing the elliptical 1 hour the other day plus a P90X routine. Weekends I do longer half-day hikes usually.

I go to the gym 4-5x a week. each day is a different class zumba, cycling, kettle balls, yoga. I switch it up everyday so I don't get bored with what I am doing. I never thought I would like cycling, but I love it. I went all out for that class.
