I walk a lot — my neighborhood has a lot of hills so that helps — and I'm getting back into a more regular workout schedule at the gym after being lax about it for months. I've also been hiking a few times lately, but to be honest, the trails were so easy it should only count as walking in the woods.

I run everyday, swim a lot in summer and now im getting into kickboxing too. I also cycle and hike but more for fun than the exercise. I try to watch what I eat, dont smoke but do drink a little. And I have as much sex as I can, its great cardio, LOL. I also try to give myself 30 min a day to just blank out my mind and veg. Not really meditation but just Nikki time!! Does wonders!!

Daily walks by the sea are good for body and soul! I also swim twice a week. Am addicted to dancing (Phew! Those endorphins!!), and do yoga regularly, cos it keeps me supple and exercises all those essential muscles (or should I sexercises!!) ;)

cycle, walk, weight training, boxing, swimming, kayaking, hiking....constantly mix it up..try to be intensely active 1.5 to 2 hrs per day, nothing deep fried, stay away from most "bad" foods eg chocolate, cake, donuts but think you should reward yourself on occasion...sex done right (whatever that means) burns the equivalent caloroes of a 12 to 15 mile walk.....

I have competed in triathlons and still do occasionally and regularly run in 5K, 10K and half-marathon races. And I swim a lot.
I have always loved sports and played varsity football and baseball in high school. I still play softball a lot and last year played on an amateur adult tackle football team.
I also love to play golf though I don't think that helps a lot with fitness. I think I am exhausted reading this .... but .... way to go Buz! now, I'll tie on my runners and head out for a little walk/jog and NOT stop by the bakery to bring home a donut! lol

If you want to get fit in under 4 months play (team) handball.  A sport that requires speed, stability, strength, stamina and a brain ;p Worst music ever but just mute it. X

I've begun running again 3-4 times a week during my lunch hour. It really helps break up my day and destresses me and helps with my pesky bouts of insomnia. I'm begining to enjoy it a lot.

Well.. like others here i like to be outside and work out i think it's because it makes it more fun and less like hard work.
So mainly i run around 6 times a week and i currently have a little competition with someone on lush to help motivate us to run longer distances and speed up lol.
I also do a little yoga it can be sooo relaxing especially in the garden
however gyms are good aswell as they help focus your main if you are feeling distracted or lazy. Also its a lot easier to do boxexercise in the gym with a partner than at home.
and the old favourite wii fit lol

Ride 10 miles to work and back daily, and run. The daily ride does great things for me.

I really enjoy working out. Well, what I really enjoy is being fit and active and feeling good! I do cardio (walking) about 3-4 times a week and do weights about 3 times a week. I've been involved in wellness and fitness for the past 15 years and about 5 years ago put on about 30lbs and could not take it off. Even though I was working out 5 days a week. Then I read a book called "Mastering Leptin" (no this is not an add for the book), that helped me understand what I was doing wrong. It helped me make some very simple changes to the way I eat and the way I workout that allowed me to drop that weight. And I've kept if off ever since. For my friends I put together a short pdf of the 5 main prinicples of eating and exercise. There is nothing to buy, no pills, no shakes, no powders, just understanding how the body works, processes food and burns calories. If you would like a copy of that pdf (again, FREE, no money and you don't have to read a 400 page book) email me at gheart69@yahoo.com. If you are a health or fitness professional I recommend "Mastering Leptin" as a very good book based on over 15 years of research into human nutrition (for the average layman, it may be a bit too much).

I used to do martial arts (shorin ryu and jiu jitsu) 5 times a week, but my poor old body can't take it any more. I miss it terribly.
I belly dance, (excellent for your core) and I am trying to become a runner. I used to spend a lot of time cycling too, but have fallen away from it - must get back to it. I love weight lifting, but live to far from a gym to make it practical. Am slowly creating a home gym.
In the summer I paddle (kayak) and swim as well. I work outside sometimes; some days are an 8 hour hike on rugged terrain. Great for the calves.

I am really into fitness, I workout 6 days a week, I switch between strength and cardio every other day, and stager my heavy workouts to every third day. I work out with weights three times a week, for cardio I run, hike, dance, or zumba.

I skate 3-4 times a week with a bunch of guys for a couple of hours each time. I also surf which is great for your arms/shoulders. At home, I tend to watch TV while sitting on a yoga ball and I do crunches during commercials .

I used to cycle when I lived in London, and I have found it scary now I moved to a different city, but it's probably because I don't know where I am going. I have joined a gym and can work out, which is a killer or swim, which is boring. Luckily, I have always been on the thin side. I must keep away from the chocolate cake in the gym's cafe.

Currently I swim twice a week 3/4 mile each time, working towards a mile each. I do yoga daily and a class once or twice a week. I do strength training once or twice a week. Sometimes I take Zumba classes. I had to workout daily for a long time to keep motivated, but I've been able to cut back since I started swimming. I've had better results with the swimming than anything else I tortured myself with and I enjoy it. A waterproof mp3 player or case makes the time fly by. I also take lots of vitamins.

Eat right for my blood type (Dr. Peter D'Adamo). Plus hustle for hours a day as a waitress.
