Exercise, what is your routine?
Just curious about what people are doing to stay in shape or get in shape. Are you working out at a gym or home? What does your workout include? Weights, aerobics, yoga? Perhaps something else. Let us know.

My routine includes weights in my basement. Hiking, biking, skiing and kayaking.

 I go to the gym usually 4 to 5 times a week. usually do a mix of things, run for 30 minutes, push ups and seat ups. then walk for 15 minutes. also do the stairs machine for 20 minutes. jumping jacks, also different work out for my arms like weights and other things.

I am also in a rowing training class. I do that 3 times per week.

I like it cause between the gym and the rowing training they keep me busy so I sleep good at night.

That very active lifestyle should keep you in shape. Don't stop.. I enjoy the summer when I get back on the lake at hit the kayak. Great exercise.

That works well. I still cut my own lawn with just a regular push mower. Shovel my driveway and neighbors when it snows. Some by hand is a great way to get some exercise.

I don't mind the gym, I actually love going to the gym.

The rowing training is the part that kills me, each session is brutal. there have been times when I don't finish the training session, and there are people in their 50's or 60's that keep going. I admired them cause they put me to shame, there is a man that is probably in his early 60's and he can go for an hour with no break...I am gasping for air after 25 minutes of rowing, I respect that man Lol

Interesting observation. My dad who is 88 goes to exercise class 3 times a week. He loves the rowing machine. He also still cuts his yard. So an active lifestyle can help.

 Not sure what’s involved in the standard Army day, but if it keeps you in shape that’s great.

 Snow overnight. Shoveled my driveway and my neighbors. About a 45 minute work out.

 12 inches of snow today. My exercise consisted of shoveling the driveway 3 times , snow over night tonight so more shoveling tomorrow. Its a good workout for the core, legs and arms.
