Would you call this over the top for a workout routine?

i am a vegetarian and I eat mostly health food and shop at heath food grocery store. I keep track of everything I eat to make sure I'm getting enough protein and make sure I don't eat too much fat or sugar. I rarely go out to eat and when I do I usually have a salad or something not too bad.

i take a zumba class three times a week for an hour. I have an hour and a half long yoga class once a week. I lift free weights for 30 minutes every day and go jogging 30 minutes every day. I do push ups every morning when I first wake up. right now I do 10 because I'm bad at them but I want to work my way up to 100 eventually. I also do one 8 minute ___ every day (I have abs, legs, buns, and arms and I rotate them).

Well, I'm vegetarian, mostly vegan...only occasionally have dairy.

I work out about 3x week for about 45 minutes. Then at home I do more abs. I rarely go out to eat and when I do I try to go somewhere that is vegan friendly. (Not easy to find good places)

I don't obsess about getting too little protein and all that. I can usually tell if I'm not getting something I need. I take Vit. B-12, Vit. C and Flax Seed oil. I've been veggie for about 11 years and I feel good.

The only thing I would say is that maybe you do exercise a lot more than most people, but if you have time to do that I wouldn't worry about it.

No, I would not say what you do is over the top.

No not over the top but the running is probably not helping you. Instead of jogging try mixing in sprint work. Especially on hills. Pick a steep hill and run up it as fast as you can. Then walk down to recover. Do it 8 to 10 times or until your butt is screaming at you to stop and your abs are hard as rocks.

It's good to exercise it keeps you healthy and happy. There is generally no harm in exercise unless your doing it wrong. Being a vegetarian you have to be careful to make sure your not missing out on things you need for a balanced diet.

its not over the top, but humans are meant to be omnivores, just sayin

I don't think so. My schedule is similar. You're just healthy. Don't overdo it and push yourself though. If you're tired or sick, rest.

Not really. I pretty much do the same. I eat 6-8 "little" meals every day and I lift for 1-2 hours 5 days a week and 40 minute cardio 7 days a week.

You seem to like exercising lots, that's great! Just remember to eat lots too if you work out lots.
