I've been doing about 30 minutes of cardio (at my target heart rate) 4 days/week and then a strength training routine 3 days/week. Self magazine actually has a pretty decent routine every mth that comes on these little pull out cards...they usually require that you have a set of weights and one of those big plastic ball things, but they are really good as far as general workouts go and have a lot of variety :)

Yes! I love Self!

Today I got my workout by running around in the mountains and climbing on rocks. :)
 
Ok here goes...
16/05 1 hr game of netball (A grade) playing C. and W.A., 1km cool down jog.
18/05 Training (1 1/2hrs): 2km warm up jog, 4x sprint,jog,sprint,jog run offs, 15mins footwork drills, 10min muck around game, 1.5km cool down jog.
Tomorrow is going to be at least 2km warm up jog before game and 1.5 km cool down jog after. Hold me to it! :)
 
1 hour of intense road cycling followed by 1 1/2 hours of very hilly mountain biking. Topped it all off with 30 minutes of weights and a nice shot of dope!

Yesterday:
Quick 30 minute morning walk, 80 situps, 30 pushups, 50 squats.

~2 hours karate in the evening, which included 100+ pushups (not all at once) 70 situps, 100+ squats and 'kicking' squats. Plus about a 5 minute jog and some 'animatronics' - propelling yourself foward using back, stomach and arm muscles. ouch. (and then some actual karate + kumite [fighting] which is actually pretty cardio intensive)

I need to refocus on upper body strength, I've been getting lax recently and all those pushups were a bit of a strain.

My dojo is essentially all male at the moment, and they seem to develop upper body strength much more easily than me. I'm normally struggling to keep up. :\
 
Did my usual workout today.... 45 minutes on the treadmill at a 2.5 incline, alternating 5 minutes of walking (4.2mph) then 5 minutes of running (5.2mph) ... repeat til time is up ;)

And apparently it IS true when people say exercising helps relieve menstrual cramps :p
 
Today, my workout will consist of school + work with a half hour in between (see how prductive I am with that half hour?;)). Tomorrow, however, is another day :)

Damn. I guess I wouldnt know..when Im cramping I can barely MOVE let alone work out.
 
hour and a half of cycling (25 miles), hour and a half of ashtanga yoga (full first series), and walked ~2 miles
 
i got nothing.... my own laziness astounds me. I'm becoming exactly what I said I would never be: sedentary. (although I did have to walk all through Jamaica for work, which has to count for something)
 
I'm not sure what i should do today, i took a body flex class on wendsday and swam laps for 30 mins yesterday. but today my legs and shoulders are KILIING me. I dont think i can handle running or the elyptical, or walking for that matter. Today i think is my day off.
 
i jogged for 30 minutes, felt great towards the end, yay! then i stretched for about 10. i wish i had more motivation to go out during the week, but work always kicks my butt. trying to change that.
WEDDING in 3 MONTHS!!! :) gotta be buff, right? haha
keep up the good workouts, everyone!
 
Yesterday I did really well. an hour on the cross traininer than a one hour RPM (cycle) class.

Today well I have to wait to see how I feel after work maybe do a martial arts class or weights.
 
during my break at work today i managed to make it over to the gym for about an hour and a half. I did 30 mins on the elyptical and a 20 min uphill light jog. I didnt have time to do any weight traning, but my job is pretty physical so i was moving around the whole day. Tomorrow i try the 2 hour spin class at 9 am...wish me luck!

OMG you are a legend!!! I do like an hour on the spin bike and im screwed. Don't know how you do two. Today I am doing Good old Body attack.
