do you workout?

Buffetboy01

Total curiosity question, but I'm guessing we're all over the map on this topic. Do you dedicate any time to working out (gym, hiking, whatever)? Inside? Outside? Nope, not important to me. 

Here's my answer. Dedicated is too strong a word for me. I run occasionally, but not even every week. Nothing else I do really counts as exercise. Okay, I do take the stairs to the fourth floor at work. Does that count?

I try to workout at least twice a week, but mostly just once. I work nights so it's hard to stay committed to it , I do a lot of walking at work and try to walk on a regular basis , in the community I live I can workout at the local high school and it only cost $32 a year.

I take the pooch for a 30-40 minute walk almost every day. Good for her, good for me.

My wife and I are currently training for our first half marathon.

Hell no! I'm retired from all that crap.

@Buffetboy01 - I walk or hike once/day with the dogs and I practice DDPYoga also.

@Subtilis87 that's awesome, good luck on your race!

I workout at least 5 to 6 days a week.  I wake at 5AM, eat, get my kids ready for school and I'm either off to the gym or I work out at home (garage gym).  As far as my training program goes, it always changes.  I'm now doing a hybrid power lifting/bodybuilding program.

Count me in with the dog walkers. Weather permitting, I usually get in 2 or 3 miles a day at the linear park or on trails in the woods. One of the many perks of being retired and living with a couple of energetic young canines.

@Subtilis87 -- dang, good for you!

@PappyJoe ha, thanks for telling it like it is. 

You folks impress me with your ability to get some exercise. I don't have a dog, but if I did, that would really be my pace. Maybe I'm a dog-walker in spirit!

LostMason

Nope,I get enough exercise at work.

johnscs

Yep. I swim 1000 meters five to six days per week (sometimes even seven).  

Buffetboy01

@johnscs, nice! Are you doing this in a pool? Or a lake?

idbowman

You wouldn't know it to look at me (as @pipeman83 can attest), but I'm in the gym 4 times a week (or, in nicer weather, hiking around the metroparks).

johnscs

;-)  ... an indoor pool ... I'm a total wimp when it comes to cold water. Thanks for asking!

I don't do formal workouts or strength training, but I do enjoy walking/hiking and I'm on my feet a lot/walking with my job.

No working out, but I'm building our house (by myself, well to be truthful my wife is a great help) so the lifting and carrying heavy things counts in my book.

I don't do much for cardio work, although I know I should. I was hitting the gym 3-5 days a week moving iron, but with my new work schedule I'm only ably to hit the weights 2-3 days a week. My main focus is building power, but I do mix in some higher reps for the aesthetics.
