I'm a runner (when my body allows it). I walk when I can't run and get annoyed when I can't walk. :lol: Beyond that, core days are my favorite workout days. Nothing in particular I like more than the rest, but I just like core days more than say, leg or arm days. But yeah, running is my thing. I love it. It chills me out.

I also enjoy dancing. I dance at every party.

Ab workouts.


You've spurred me on to doing that. It does feel really good to be fair. I used to hate it but I got one of those ab rocking things cheap and it has been a real treat to use.

You need to get on some of the ab workouts from madfit on YouTube!! They are SO much fun and effective. If you like the dancer shape, that's what you get with them.

Thanks for that. They look really good. Just did a quick 5 minutes one.

Lying on the couch, twiddling my thumbs. My thumbs are exerting themselves :P

Seriously….I like walking and hiking….and running when it doesn’t exhaust me.

Glad you tried it out! She's very professional and good at explaining correct form - it's like working out with a personal trainer. My faves are all the 30mins one's that include a warm-up and cool down.

You should checkout her dance workouts!

Weightlifting! I've been leaning into the fact that I'm built like a powerlifter and now I'm so comfortable at the weights section at the gym.

Just did 3 five minute ones back to back. Calves, arms and abs. I'm impressed. My calves feel like tennis balls.

I'll check out the dance ones when I've got a minute too.

^ You'll be even more impressed once you see the results! Stick with them and you'll reap the benefits pretty soon.

Have you tried any of the 30mins ones yet? The 10-20min workouts are pretty effective too. I'm happy to recommend some, if you want.

Go on give me a challenge. I have to adapt some moves to accommodate for my back issue but that's not really a problem

Upper body: https://youtu.be/B3Y5kYDH-Mo

Upper body with warmup and cool down: https://youtu.be/L_tpvTJyu7I

Abs: https://youtu.be/__ow0weCvCo

Bodyweight squat challenge: https://youtu.be/LSj280OEKUI

Resistance band booty workout (this one really burns): https://youtu.be/0v2o4xrHlLE

Leg day with warm up and cool down: https://youtu.be/ccUElj0LB5A

Standing abs with weights: https://youtu.be/gBFvVIkPmww

Standing abs no weights: https://youtu.be/_wZl-vth3h8

Standing abs might be better for your back.

She also has a bunch of HIIT and full body workouts - all worth checking out. I don't do any of those because of issues with coordination and chronic fatigue.

Some more madfit workout recommendations:

https://youtu.be/vjCqfvCqyAQ - cardio abs. This one for the eleven lines.

https://youtu.be/Gn2EWxH7ME8 - slow abs. For all over definition. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone with any abdominal related health issues.

https://youtu.be/b9DFYywGneA - five min legs. When you don't have the energy for the squat challenge.
