Regimen / regime / regiment... people have been using these words interchangably, what do you think?

[Zelpha]

Usually in circles discussing exercise / fitness routines, I've seen people write about their "exercise regime," or "exercise regiment."

Mmm, when I think of the word "regime," it conjures up images of European WWII military tactics or something of the like.

"Regiment" is another military word.

When talking about a routine, the word "regimen" is the word they're looking for, right?

Perhaps this could be posted in exercise and fitness, but those people are exercisers, not sticklers for vocabulary.

I'm an exerciser AND a stickler for vocab.

I agree with you, "regimen" is what they mean.
