Do you workout? How often? What do you do? Run, elliptical, lift, swim, bike, crossfit, P90X......

[jaj324]

Please don't tell me nobody here breaks away from the puter long enough to get their sweat on!!!

[ttsoldier]

p90x. On week two, day 3.

Roommates started tapout xt. looks like a lot of fun though.

Guess we will compare results after the 90days :/

[Mystictrust]

4-6 days per week: Lift, run, elliptical, and various core excercises

[alaskanjackson]

I average 24-30 miles of running a week. Well it feels like running...my L900 has run with me for over 700 miles!

[gedzum]

Not so much an excercise junkie, but I do try to keep active. Do Windows Phone apps count? If so, I use the 6 week training app in conjuction with Gym Pocketguide to vary things up a bit. I lift and go for a jog. Often times though I get side tracked and as a result don't have a set routine. I try to do 4-6 days too

Plyo kills!!!!! I literally fell flat out on the floor the first time I did it!!

[ttsoldier]

p90X OR tapout xt?

[justop26]

I used to be. I promise I'll start not on New Year, but TODAY. I hate having this belly.

[krystea]

I exercise heavily in the summer. Should probably get around to changing that and making it a year-round commitment.

[jaj324]

I hit it year round and have for 30 years. I wrestled in HS and just never quit exercising. Did 5 yrs in the Army in the 90's and turned it up another notch. Now, at 46, I workout 7 days a week and struggle to keep from getting bored. I mean how many hours a week can one man spend on the elliptical machine? I elliptical, run, lift and the elliptical some more. I'm seriously thinking about doing a 90 day P90X cycle and see how that goes. I had a bootleg copy of the program but I think I'll buy the real deal this time and do it right. There's also the CrossFit option. Crossfit has gotten really popular around here and there's a crossfit gym not far from my home. It's also a MMA gym so that'd be pretty cool too. I've even thought about hanging a heavy bag in my basement and beating the crap out of it for an hour at a time a few days week to cut down on the boredom.

I lift weights 3 days per week and do cardio exercise 3 days per week (jogging or biking). When I was 41 I hired a personal trainer and he talked me into competing in a local, natural bodybuilding competition and I got 2nd place against guys half my age. I have always worked out but that is the most serious I have ever been about it. I used to play racquetball and volleyball regularly but I changed gyms and don't have access to those facilities. Last year I trained for a marathon but did what my doctor called the "terrible toos": too far, too fast, too soon and ended up with a tibia stress fracture.

Boredom. That summarizes working out for me perfectly. I had to find something that engaged my brain while I exercised.

So I started training in traditional Shaolin kung fu. My Sigung is 10th degree black, ex SAS and has studied Marshall arts and hand to hand combat for 50 years.

3-4 nights a week of kung fu, tai chi, wushu, weapons and self defense followed by 1 hour of military style fitness. Absolutely love it.

Does owning a small gym and writing a training blog count? http://integratefitness411.blogspot.com

Personal training. We've got all the bells (kettle and dummies!) and whistles:
Ropes, prowler, Olympic cage, med balls all the usual toys.

If you want some awesome fitness resources, "The New Rules of Lifting" book series is about as good as it gets.

Check the blog out, I post 2-3 articles/week. I'm also the Fitness Editor at TwoSpoke.com and we've got a killer training forum.

And now, I officially feel lazy....

I worked out fairly well for most of my life. Inexcusable skinny, weight and muscle just avoided me something fierce. But, I have let myself go in the last couple years. I bought a bench and some dumb bells, a bike, and some shoes and have come to a horrifying conclusion:

This stuff is A LOT harder at 43 then what it was just 5 - 6 years ago. What a drag.

I am all shades of impressed with what ya'll do. It is motivating. I am doing my humble best (which right now is meager but painful) and will try to catch up to everyone. If you show-offs will freaking slow down some!!!

Very interested in taking up boxing as an exercise at some point. Never in the ring, mind you, just to train. Love that sport.

@immortalwarrior, post #13 ..... remind me to never, EVER make you mad at me.....

lol don't worry. Once you get past the Harley, long hair and cowboy boots I'm actually a really calm and nice guy. Needless to say, my appearance is usually enough to deter confrontations. Haven't been in a real fight since high school. :D

In regards to your age comment. My Sigung is 56 or 57 and keeps up with us in boxing fitness no problem, often he can out last us in cardio as well. At 26 I still feel the difference compared to when I was 16.

But we've had some older folk come to our club to train and in a few short months that stamina and confidence comes back. You just can't overdo yourself when you start up. Some of the 50+ members have really gotten that stamina, flexibility and power back in just 6 months time. You just gotta take it slow, it only comes back with time.
