I was wondering how well your fitness workouts work and what you do exactly to stay in shape. Thanks.

25 minutes of Bowflex, 25 minutes of treadmill every day.

Nothing compares, assuming you don't have a problem putting 100% into a very intense regiment. It is no good if you do it half-a$$ed.We bring evil things to evil people, kicking in a door near you!

I don't think that's what Switch meant. If your max is a % of what is posted, then it's not half-assed for YOU. Originally Posted by Jynkxxie

Normally I would agree, but I've found it's not too bad if you do the 400 meter / 50 squat x 6 routine on a treadmill. I live in the land of snow so there's just not much choice about it if I want to be able to run a decent time on our QFAs. :( Originally Posted by bluelightzgrl

I'm 51. I go to the gym five days a week, start out by lifting weights (because I like that) for about an hour, and then I get on an elliptical trainer for 30-40 minutes. I alternate different muscles different days, and if they weather is nice I will sometimes go on a bike ride instead.
It doesn't make me Arnold Schwarzenegger, but it makes me feel good. :DLast edited by Group9; 03-04-09 at 09:38 AM. Reason: Five days, dammit!
