Re: What do you do to stay in shape?

I workout 5-6 days a week. Just started Jillian's body revolution(30mins). Since the 1st phase is not as intense I follow it up with an additional 30 min cardio.

I go to Curves and in between workouts I do a Leslie Sansone walking tape.

Weights, boxing, some cardio (walking/jogging, treadmill or elliptical) biking, sometimes a yoga DVD I have, but that's just more relaxation for me.

Eat healthy(ier) 80-90% of the time, allowing 10-20% for a little leeway because I am human afterall. {#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

Re: What do you do to stay in shape?

I joined a Fitness 19 near my house about 6 months ago and try to go 3 times a week. I use the treadmill or bike for about 15-20 minutes and then I do some resistance training and weights on the other machines for another 30 minutes. I really enjoy it! Reva

I ride a stationary bike at least two hours every day seven days a week. Before daylight session is my longest and about 30 minutes each night. Love to read while I bike.

Re: What do you do to stay in shape?

I eat very, very healthy. 24/7 365 days a year. Good nutrition does most of the work.

I also lift weights and do different types of cardio.

Re: What do you do to stay in shape?

Oh my golly...how inspiring all of you are!! I stopped by Heath and Fitness boards this afternoon because I was feeling down, very depressed actually, about my weight. Have gained back 35 pounds after losing 80 a few years ago. Lost the weight on Weight Watchers, then used Jenny Craig to maintain (sort of). I have been trying Weight Watchers again but am struggling struggling struggling. Have never exercised much at all. Now I am thinking I must move as well as diet. I ordered Barre 3 DVDs today. Any encouragement or suggestions would be much appreciate. I am 53 and have been fighting with my weight since I was 16. Thanks!

Re: What do you do to stay in shape?

Aiminghigh, as a Lifetime member of WW, I certainly had my ups and downs with weight. Here's my best advice. First, just keep trying. Don't beat yourself up for gaining weight. You're still a good person. Nobody else talks as badly to us as we women talk to ourselves. Success always requires numerous attempts and failures. We're only human, not perfect. As for exercise, do something you like. I go to aerobic dance classes three times a week and aerobic interval training, which includes free weights, twice a week. I used to figure skate and play tennis but a torn Achilles forced me to pursue other activities. The bottom line was I could never have stuck with any of these work-outs if they weren't fun for me. Experiment with different activities and keep an open mind. If something bores you, try something else. The key is to keep at it. You can do it!
