I was curious as to what other people's workout routines were?

I'm starting my second week of Insanity tonight. But since it's so challenging for me I feel like I don't get the full workout it's meant to give you because I pause it like a hundred thousand times and I have to modify some of the moves. I still sweat like crazy, and get a sore butt and thighs and arms and stuff, I guess I just feel kind of... held back? I'm not sure what how to describe it. I feel like if it was easier, I could get a much better workout from it. But no worries, I'm going to stick with it. Because I may not be able to keep up now, but I'm confident that I will at some point and I am very determined to finish it! ( <-- I love this carrot guy, btw! He's totally motivational to me. lol)

ANYWAY. Sorry, I tend to ramble. I am wanting to feel more... accomplished? Like I want to finish a workout and be like "WOO! That was awesome!". And I was wondering what your workout routine was? weights? running? DVD's? This afternoon I started the Brazil Butt Lift work outs because Lord knows my hind end needs some lifting and shaping. Haha! Also because I loathe my thunder thighs. But my whole point was wondering what other people are doing for workouts. I plan to try and keep up with the Brazil Butt Lift as well as Insanity AND throw in a C25K workout so that I can get back into running. So hopefully that helps me feel more like I am getting a great workout. Thanks in advance!

DVDs. I used to use a treadmill but it bit the dust. Workout DVDs probably give a more variety of cardio anyway.

Weights, running, Pilates mat classes, random cardio machines at the gym sometimes. Hiking when it's nice outside!

Hang in there iJustWant2Run. I love the carrot guy too. LOL

My exercise routine is all over the place, but it has been effective. I guess it keeps my body guessing?

I usually start off doing some Pilates (Blogilates) for 10 - 15 mins. Then I pop in a 2 - 5 mile Walk Away The Pounds dvd.

Or I would do Pilates for 10 - 15 mins and do to bodyweight exercises for a half hour.

Occasionally I will use a 1 mile WATP pounds dvd a couple of hours after dinner.

I also take a strength-training class 2x per week.

When it's nice out I like doing powerwalking/jogging intervals too.

I want to do a whole bunch of things now that my body will cooperate but I'm so afraid to hurt myself!

Right now, I do 45-60 mins. a day but I find myself craving more exercise, which is so weird for me! Maybe it's the nice weather, maybe it's my body enjoying the benefits.

Depending on the day/weather/schedule, I do any combo of the following:

-Walk on my treadmill
-Walk outside
-Do Leslie Sansone Walk Away The Pounds (15, 30 or 45 min. walk)
-Started C25K and am currently on week 3 (doing this M/W/F)
-Ride my bike outside
-Ride my stationary bike

I was going to throw 30 Day Shred into the mix but I don't want to be so sore that I can't do my regular exercise.

I can't believe how far my body has come in 8 months. Nothing short of a miracle!!

Right now I'm doing 30 Day Shred on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, and running on Wednesday and Saturdays. Running is by far my favorite form of exercise.

Every 2-3 days I do a long walk 5hrs or hike 3hrs.
On the in-between days I walk about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
I do pilates and dumbell weights on about 2 of my easier days per week.

Same here depending on my mood, weather, and schedule. These are some of my workout routines, but I make sure that I'm able to do one of the 5 every other day even if only an hour or two that's already great for me.

- running most of the time
- swimming sometimes
- some weights most of the time too
- treadmill if I can't run outside
- yoga if I'm physically too tired

OMG Elvis...everytime I come here your ticker keeps going down and down. Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much!! I just came to see everyone else's responses and saw this!! You just made my whole night!!

I'm chasing down 199.9 for next week, praying that it happens!!

Mixing it up keeps me from getting bored or burned out - hence

Running
Walking
hiking
recumbent bike
weight lifting
body weight exercises
P90X
Zumba
Boxing
Insanity
kickboxing

I go to curves 3 x a week
and i jog 3 miles a day on my treadmill

Workout DVDS, free weights for strength, and running are all some of my favorites. I have a couple of kickboxing dvds since I had to sell my boxing bag and stuff since it wouldn't fit in our house, but those are my main go-tos. My husband and I are starting Insanity next week, which I cannot wait for. I know it is going to be super hard but I am so ready to kick my butt some more!

I go back and forth with my routine. I'm in school so I try to get to the gym as much as possible, even if it's for 45 minutes. Sometimes I either have to sacrifice homework to stay at the gym or sacrifice working out to go do homework. I cannot wait until it's nicer out and I'm not in school anymore so I can work out outside and do some of the routines I've found on bodyrock.tv and Pinterest that I can't do in my house.

Anyways. I try hard to do weight training everyday - but sometimes that doesn't happen. You know, leg day, chest day, arm day, etc. So yesterday my routine looked like this.

30 minutes on treadmill - walking at 3 mph - incline of 5%, going down every 5 minutes until I was done

20 minutes on stair stepper

Leg day - so numerous weight training excercises focusing on my legs.

This was a rushed day because I didn't get out of school until 815, and my gym closes at 10. So, usually my routines are more in depth and I try to do more.
