Nope, I don't exercise. I'm a lazy bum.

The only exercise that I won't get bored with is something that involves intellectual and social stimulation as well... but sadly, nothing has come along where I can do all 3 at the same time! Since right now my need for people to talk to is greater than my need for physical exercise, that's what I'm doing; that's why I'm here.

I do alot of hiking, and I try to hike up mountains whenever possible and I am in the high peaks area. I also have a physically intensive job.

It's one of my rigid routines.

30-60 minutes of cardio no less than 4x per week. Usually it's treadmill, but rollerblading and Tae Bo make their way into the mix as well.

I used to train people full time, now I train only a few clients and I'm going to go full time again within a year, so I have to walk the talk. I train every day in the gym, cardio and weights, and I do a mini workout/warm up in the morning after I meditate, so if I can't get to the gym that day, at least I did something.
I never train with a partner. I'd be like "fcuk you, I know what I'm doing". To me, exercising is a great stabilizer and a constant in my life. It's wonderful to be connected with your body and to understand it better everyday. Your body truly has an intelligence that merits to be explored. It's an amazing instrument that will obey you if you treat it right.

I ride the Rail Trail on my bike.

I lift weights and copulate. That's about all I'm doing these days.

Bike
Work out regimen at the gym
Swimming
Occasionally tennis
A few other things I do less regularly

Ride bike, jump on trampoline with handweights..goof around with pilates ball....it has been a while though since I have been able to adhere to a routine...but I have in the past when my life was more conventionally structured.

When I worked in an office, I would religously go power walking with hand weights in the subdivision behind the building where I worked...as a result, I actually lost weight while watching my young, healthy co-workers get fat and the older sicker ones (LITERALLY) die of diabetes related illness.
The management in my office had a sort of sick way of stuffing the employees with sugar and fat...the repo guys regularly brought in a huge sour cream cake and set it down in the same room as the elderly collectons guy (who had diabetes and eventually died) There were also a couple of sorry looking pieces of fruit put out...When there wasn't that, there was pizza, or doughnuts, or a big palate of assorted danishes from the wholesale mega mart...
It was really sick to observe..
I had a dark theory that the management wanted to kill off the elderly employees before they could retire and have a pension.

Sorry for rambling...just wanted to impress the importance of some kind of exercise...I guess

'Twas a beautiful snapshot of your life!

I walk every day (except saturday and sunday) from home to colllege and back, and then I walk again to college for my afternoon classes, and back to home inthe night.

I'm not allowed to drive a vehicle, so I have to walk an hour in a day. that's all my excercise

not driving has kept me fitter than I would be otherwise as well.

I've done martial arts for about seven years now, just recently got black belt, so now I teach. I joined a new Shotokan class as a student to keep in shape and learn something new. It is hard!! I've been sick for the last two days, missed my class last night, and ate a bunch of junk food. tasted good at the moment, but now I feel guilty Hopefully, I will feel better tommorow in time for kickboxing class. I obsess about my weight, so I have to work out or I will get fat, I'm an emotional eater.

In addition to cycling, my job is physically demanding. I wrap and load windows at a factory.
