No exercises during winters. I become very lazy during winters and do not do any exercises right now. But during summers I go for a 5 KM walk everyday.

I haven't posted in a while but I'm still working out. I tried TRX out this week and man, I am still reeling from the pain! Also did bootcamp right after it and woo man, still hurting. Today will be a day off!!! Have a good weekend everyone!

Today I lifted some 2.5kg (each) free weights 100x's, it's not a lot so I'm going to try to do some sit ups and more free weights when my kids go to sleep.

I completely oranganised and sorted kids toys and clothes, guessing by the sheer amount there was I'm thinking I got a good workout by doing this.

This is a great thread, I'm going to have to visit it regularly, I'm sure I'll get some good inspiration from everyone here!

Ok - yesterday I did boot camp using the TRX amongst other things - I really like TRX and kickboxing.

Today - will be sitting on my rear end all day in some bleachers at a swim meet. Maybe I'll take the dogs for a quick walk before we go.

I'm so curious about Insanity..even though the price is ridiculous, is it worth getting?

If you are looking to improve cardio performance, and/or are bored of your current workout(s) then I say YES. The upfront cost may be discouraging, but the rewards you'll reap after several months will be worth it. You can do the workouts at home and unless you're a super-athlete, it's practically guaranteed you'll get a good sweat out of it (esp if you try to keep up w/the fit folks on TV). Just remember that no workout regimen is worth dedicating to unless you are complementing it w/proper nutrition.

Bottom line: Yes, there ARE other options available and this program does not fit everyone's individual needs/goals, but for the majority of those who are attempting to get in shape (or back into shape), it'll do.

I joined a local bicycle team that is going to ride in the AIDS LifeCycle ride this year, a 545 mile bike ride over seven days from San Francisco to Santa Monica. Today was the second time I rode with the team, the first day was with just three of them on a short ride around 20 miles. Today there were seven of us, one young man of 20, one at 26, two in their late 20's, a man of 46, a woman of 50 and me at 52. We did a 54 mile round trip in about 4 hours, we took breaks often and waited for one slower bicyclist to catch up, the only one who had not been riding a lot of hours. I loved it and look forward to the next group ride
