    Do You Have A Regular Exercise Routine

    Do you exercise regularly? Running, walking, weights, etc.

    I did...until my friendly elliptical broke! The guy was out to service it a whole week ago, and I haven't seen him since.

    When it is working, I get up fairly early, do 30 minutes on it (more if I am feeling saucy), and start the day. With the birth of my little bundle of J 5 years ago, my gym excursions are all but non-existant.

    No, other then walking my dog. I used to go to the gym twice a week but it kind of just stopped. I don't really have time to anymore. I do want to start jogging with Mikey though, he would LOVE it.

    I go to the gym once or twice a week. In the summer I rode my bike everyday, but now that it's getting colder I don't do that anymore like I should ;/ At home I do sit-ups regularly and use 5lb weights for my arms, so besides that I don't do anything else...

    When I get the urge to exercise, I eat some chocolate and it goes away .

    Seriously, I don't have a regular exercise routine. I got a pass for three free days' admission to the local Lifetime Fitness. I like walking on a treadmill and I'm sure Lifetime has them, so the pass may be the start of something good.

    I used to but not any more. The only excuse I have is that I've gotten very lazy and I'm on the computer more often.

    Road biking in the mornings and evenings during the week and mountain biking on the weekends. On rainy days I use the bike trainer. I used to run but that was torture on my knees.
    I used to walk the dogs at least once a day, too. That is put on hold now until people in the neighborhood start keeping their dogs contained. It is a disaster waiting to happen with Ethan being so reactive to other dogs...

    I take a good walk on my mornings off work which have been few this year. I do however walk miles in the yard when out with the dogs.

    If I see the bus I want on it's way, I run! If the weather is OK, I cycle everywhere, providing it's not more than half an hour away. I also try to go for a walk half an hour every day - it doesn't always happen, though.

    I used to have a great exercise routine, which is why is used to be in shape and now I'm not! I'm hoping to get back into some kind of a routine (I like doing aerobic exercises, and I would love to have an elliptical machine if they weren't so expensive) soon. Like everyone, I find it hard to find the time and energy to commit to.
