I speed walk for 45mins five days a week during my lunch brake. I walk up six flights of steps four to five times a week. Starting this week I am changing my workout schedule and adding strenght training in on a regular basis so now on tuesdays and thursdays I am strenght training for about 45 mins during my lunch brake. Then on mondays and wednesday evening I speed walk again for about an hour.
My schedule constantly changes because my work schedule always changes, but since I'm a waitress and always on my feet/walking around, I'm always active!! Here's what will probably happen this week:
Sunday: Cardio 30 mins (I also went on a long walk with my boyfriend)
Monday: Cardio 30 - 40 mins
Tuesday: working 2 shifts, but if I get out in time: Ballet class, 90 mins
Wednesday: working 2 shifts, so no working out!
Thursday: Cardio in the morning, Jazz dance class at night, 90 mins
Friday: Cardio in the morning 30 mins, then my mom and sister are coming and picking me up to take me to my cousin's baby shower, so I probably won't work out on the weekend. I might be able to fit in one walk with my dogs (YAY!!!! They live back where I grew up, so I get really excited to see them!), but mostly I'll just be helping to get ready for the shower.
Sunday: Full Body Sculpt class for one hour(10:15 AM-11:15 AM). 30 min of cardio after.
Monday: Full Body Sculpt class for one hour (6:30 PM-7:30 PM). 30 min of cardio after.
Tuesday: Full Body Sculpt class for one hour (10:15 AM-11:15 AM). 30 min of cardio after.
Wednesday: One hour of kickboxing class (5:30 PM-6:30 PM).
Thursday: One hour of Step Aerobics class (9:00 AM- 10:00 AM)
Friday: Full Body Sculpt class for one hour (5:15 PM-6:15 PM). 30 min of cardio after.
Saturday: An hour and fifteen minutes of Studio Cycle class (10:45 AM-12:00 PM)
On days where I am on my own for cardio (days where it says "30 min of cardio after") I usually do 20 min of the eliptical machine and 10-15 min on the bike machine. Sometimes though, I'll just go on a 30 min bike ride around my neighborhood, or a 30 min rollerblade.

If you look at the sticky post for july's fitness challenge you'll get an idea of how other people work out. I have mine posted there.
Basically I do cardio 5 x a week and strength train 2 x a week. I'm also trying to stick some yoga into that schedule but failed for the previous two weeks
This is my workout routine for now but when school starts again I think its going to change.. not much time with work during the day and classes twice a week in the evening.
Monday: strength training
Tuesday: 2-3 miles @ 6 mph outdoors (running)
Wednesday: 3-4 miles outdoors
Thursday: 3 miles outdoors
Friday: 3 miles + strength training
Saturday: rest
Sunday 4-5 miles running outdoors
Varies so much because i'm training for a half marathon and different weeks are different
Right now I'm in the middle of my "cardio-only" week so I've just been running and biking and stuff a lot. I created my own little duathlon and sometimes I run with a weight vest for my 5ks.
Normally though (during the summer):
Saturday - push muscle circuit, yoga (...maybe...if my sister can drag me there, haha!)
Sunday - pull muscle circuit, 30-45min of running
Monday - work and school so rest day!
Tuesday - push muscle circuit, 30-45 minutes of running/biking
Wednesday - pull muscle circuit, 30 min of sprints
Thursday - long run (10-15k)
Friday - rest day OR 30-40 minutes of biking
When I'm at school I go to spinning class twice a week in place of biking. I love them.
