I do not work out.

I work out occasionally, but not every week.

I work out 1-3 hours per week.

I work out 4-6 hours per week.

I work out more than 6 hours per week.

[pineneedle]

I can get really hyper (especially after ingesting starchy/sugary foods) so if I'm in a weird hyper mood i'll just move around a lot to burn off the energy. Or else things get weird.
But otherwise, I don't really work out work out a lot.. I have sports as hobbies and I have a Golden Retriever who has to be walked daily (sometimes twice daily, he's hyper like me) and most days i end up chasing him around my local park after he's houdinied his way out of his collar. But I'll gym it once a week, do some weights.
Altogether its dog daily, sports twice a week and weights once a week. And random bursts of insane dancing in my bedroom.

[Lauren2410]

I do not. I lost like 20 pounds a year and a half ago and kept them off until I started preparing for med school. I became stressed and put 25 pounds back on. And now I regret it. But I really don't have time to work out now or lose weight with all this prepping and also going into last year of high school. Losing weight again will make me concentrate less from new eating habits and I don't want that, especially with hs exams and admission exam, so I'll just leave working out and changing my eating habits for when I am done with it all.:)

[BertMacklinFBI]

hahaa yeah don't stress yourself out over it. some people eat like 9000 calories in 1 sitting while studying for the big exam lol.

[Lauren2410]

@BertMacklinFBI haha thanks :D well I don't plan on eating that much though XD and if I lose weight it will be from being busy haha.
Why can't I be the type of person that loses weight when stress? Haha

[BertMacklinFBI]

hahaa cause nobody is that way xD but srsly like your studies are awesome and you know how to prioritize :)

[Lauren2410]

@BertMacklinFBI nah I don't. I am too lazy and I hope it won't cost me the admission. But I discussed it with you already. I hope you're right and I get into med school :/

[DodgersGM]

I get a solid four hours per week, and I'm pretty happy with that given the present demands on my time.

I'll usually get a good ten mile bike ride in once a week that takes about an hour, and then I'll get a solid two hour walk in at the beach on the sand on another day, and then I'll usually do a 1-1.5 hour hike that's nearby me.

Sometimes I'll walk more at the beach and bike less, and other times I'll do the opposite, but it usually comes out to about four hours. It's really important to me because I'm getting super healthy again, and I'm either gonna maintain that or I'm gonna die trying. LOL

[ironeddie]

Up. All the time.

[ironeddie]

*Yup.

[shyguy227]

haha good one man thats pretty funney : )

[BertMacklinFBI]

working out is half of my life hahaa, if not more.

[RandomStudent]

that sucks man, good luck getting over addiction

[BertMacklinFBI]

@RandomStudent when my time comes i can't workout anymore i hope to be at peace lol :)

[ZenQueen]

yes cycling, running, hiking, gardening, whenever I please... also yoga, I usually do at least 15 minutes of one of these a day.. And randomly become a "weekend warrior" and go cycling from sun up to sun down, going around 70 miles through the mountains:) I want to become really good a swimming and surfing:)

[crazyincalifornia]

My BF does yoga. I want to start.

[aumshivashanti]

I have a 25 pound baby that I have to chase around. Evey day consists of doing many squats, bending over, lifting 25lbs of Weight above my head at least 100 times, and not to forget the quick sprints. On top of that. I like to wear him and go for long hikes at least 4 times a week. I do a lot of working out!

[WCM78]

Good answer.

[InquisitiveMale]

I have a husky and my house does not get destroyed. Regular activity is implied. 17km a day, 7days a week, come hell or high water; rather, hell and a snow storm.

I go through shoes like you wouldn't believe.

But as far as weights go... I've haven't stepped foot in the gym in quite some time.

[aamy811]

I workout every day. Honestly I have a super bad self image, so whenever I workouts it's because I'm trying to change myself. Honestly I don't really workout to be healthy (I mainly diet to be healthy), but I excersize so that one day I'll be really slim. That will never happen but, we all have goals

[sammy_31]

I workout way more than 6 hours per week. My activities/workouts consist from light exercises like walking & jogging to weight lifting, pilates and soccer. I give myself Sunday and sometimes Monday to rest, most of the time and sometimes it might be one day in the week to rest.

[ButterflyXkisses]

I exercise at home almost every night and try to implement random squats into my day, but other than that not really. I have a gym membership but my gym buddy works overnight now so he goes while I'm at work and I have no license so I just don't go because he's asleep when I get off work. Sigh.

[xHoneyxBeex]

No, I don't. I never have time. I'm always either at school or at work, when I do have free time I'm doing homework, on GAG, or reading. So, no, I don't get much exercise. Although it could be considered exercise walking around campus every day from class to class. Lol I walk a lot when I'm at school. But, I used to work out a lot when I was in high school and participated in sports.

[jeanbean]

It's part of my job to stay in shape, so yes, I work out quite regularly. If I fail a PT test I have to talk to people with a fuck-ton of stripes on their arms and then people with silver eagles pinned to their hats. That's very bad juju in the military.

[WCM78]

Trust me, it gets easier as time goes on. PT becomes a habit you can't or just don't want to break. And the older you get, the easier the standard is on you... while still running off the 18-22 scale.

[jeanbean]

Jeez, I hope so. PT is more of a chore to me than anything at the moment. Lol

[Jadekitten]

I run track & field an hour a day five days a week, do weights/hurdle practice after track for an hour twice a week, ride horses an hour a day for four-six days a week, and do home exercises for about half an hour about four days a week. So about 13 hours of exercise a week minimum, sometimes more or less depending on the week.

[Ivy_Nicole]

I love to work out, but I am now studying abroad and the gym is kind of expensive and it is too cold to find a tennis court in the next 4 months. So I can only do the occasional aerobics class provided by my university here. Normally I squash 2 times a week, I do one aerobics class and I swim two times a week. Furthermore I take the bike everywhere except when I go a weekend to my parents house.

[justbanANNAz]

i do but I'm quite inconsistent at times.

so i could work out everyday for a week, then 3-4 times the next week. my main issues are time and commitment.
i need to work on making it a lifestyle rather than just a change, but its proving to be very hard.

[Shyguy_1988]

My motivational skills are failing! XD

[justbanANNAz]

shit. he found me. hahaha :P @Shyguy_1988

[bettybets]

I work out regularly now. I'm really committed to getting in shape this year. I feel great after a particularly sweaty work out where I really get my heart rate up. And it's an amazing stress reliever. I'd also like to lose 5 lbs. to get into a better BMI range.

I also walk to all my classes on campus because taking the bus isn't necessary.

[J-junk]

I weight train six days a week. At least two hours each session.
Ever since I was 12 yrs. old I've wanted to be a strong person. I never let that idea fade. Athletics has always been important to me. I'm not competitive I just love to feel intensely alive.

[cheeseysouffle]

Normally I have a work out plan, but this semester a lot of my classes involve labs that require a lot of physical activity and a lot of endurance. The classes are actually more intense than my workout regimen so... it's helping me get into better shape.

[Snow-Wolf18]

When I was on break from school, I'd run for about 35 - 45 minutes four times a week. I'm back in school for the fall semester but I'm always walking all over campus to get to my classes. I don't work out as much but I'm still active - it's just not time devoted solely to exercise. I'll try to step up my exercise routine if there's time.

[Rease]

I work out 5-6 hours a week, which usually spreads out over 6 days so I can have one rest day. Usually I am pretty consistent with the times I go to the gym or work out at home. When I travel I usually still do shorter workouts in my hotel room but not as much as when I am home. I do it to stay fit and healthy and also because it helps relieve stress.

[Anonymous]

I go through phases...
I'll exercise every day for weeks or even months, then fall off and not do it for several weeks or months.
I haven't been feeling well lately, so I haven't in a while.
I'd love to take on the punching bag though.

[Nomad93]

You sound just like a female version of me. I only just started up again this week. I find ginseng helps a lot with energy levels I am not a huge fan of coffee because I am caffeine sensitive. Me too I actually have a boxing bag in my room a good exercise and a good venting too.

[Opinion Owner]

@Nomad93 Oh man, I'd LOVE to have on in my room, that's what I would be doing right now if I could! I've never tried Ginseng, I'll give it a go. Thanks.

[Nomad93]

Not a problem. Additionally bodybuilding. com is a great resource to have when it comes to exercising check that out. Since we are so similar I am guessing you are a little impatient or get bored with the workouts?

[Opinion Owner]

@Nomad93 It's a combination of a lot of things. I have to force myself to do it most days, just because it's not really something I "enjoy". Then I do get bored sometimes. And I work a very sedentary job, so that keeps me feeling lazy and tired with very low energy levels.

[Nomad93]

@Sparrow24 Sounds like me and my job its not something I enjoy lol I find variety is the key if you keep your workout regime diverse you don't get bored as easily. Bring some music to the workplace if you can I find it livens the place up. I like to workout for two reasons it makes me feel good and its a productive way to spend my free time. Look better, Feel better its a win win situation.

[RandomStudent]

I'm the exact same. I never end up gaining much muscle because it is so on and off.

[Iron_Man]

I like Boxing myself

[crazyincalifornia]

Amen. Do you do Karate or anything?

[Opinion Owner]

@crazyincalifornia
No, but I've been wanting to lately!

[Anonymous]

I do about 20 minutes of yoga a day. Sometimes I add in some calisthenics or weight lifting, but usually not for much more than 15 minutes, and only maybe two or three times a week.

I try to walk instead of drive places when I have the time, but I'm in college and really busy.

[turkishdelight]

Yes, i do workout everyday. I prefer to go jogging early in the morning and gym at night. I played Rugby League and soccer for 8-9 years but, now that i have uni i don't really have much time for it. However, i can't go a day without working out. It just makes me feel so fresh, energetic and most importantly happy about myself.
