What forms of exercise do you usually do to stay fit??

I do a few different martial arts. Not only is it a great way to stay in shape, it is a fun social atmosphere and it's great that I'm also learning to defend myself.

I regret to say that I do not exercise at all, and it is becoming apparent because I am certainly not fit any more. I used to get plenty of exercise at work, and was always very active generally which allowed me to remain in good condition without requiring a gym or specific exercises. Over the past couple of years my health has declined and keeping active is no longer a viable proposition. I originally had an issue with the veins in my legs contracting, so I experience the discomfort of oxygen deprivation quite quickly. As if this was not bad enough, I had a brain haemorrhage last years and was advised before leaving hospital to take things easy and avoid the danger of raising my blood pressure. I accept these conditions as a fact of life, but they certainly forbid me to be as active as I would like.

I work out regularly at the gym, I go three times a week and do a 90 minute program which I devised myself, it combines both cardio vascular - cross trainer, treadmill and bike with weights. I love it, I take my Ipod with me whilst I work out. The time flies by, it's very gratifying to see how you are improving by upping the weights and going longer distances and faster. It works for me keeps my weight down, helps with my depression and it's a solitary activity (I prefer to work out on my own)

I ride my bike and walk dogs, but my favorite is dancing and it is a form of exercise I do more often because the other activities do require good weather, so even in an ice storm, I can dance away...

I've been on and off of exercising for years because it's so boring. I've had issues with chronic pain for over ten years so any form of exercise takes a lot out of me. Walking is a low impact exercise which I don't mind because I do it with my dog. If the routine keeps my mind active or feels like it's not work, I'm all for it. I have recently started Zumba and I have to say that it's quite energetic and fun. I do have to slow down the routine and tailor it to my needs but yeah, losing weight and strengthening my core is going to be key.

Very true about exercising based on your interests. Getting excessive requires motivation and discipline. So it really helps if you do something you love to do. For example, if you like playing soccer, try to motivate yourself to play at least once a week. Soccer is a great way to get in shape along with other full body workouts, that's usually what I stick to.

There was a time when I used to go to gym. But I hardly continued it after one month. then I used to go for badminton regularly. i played for almost two years. Now i have shifted to tennis. Let me tell you its a great game. It keeps you fit as well as increases your stamina. I enjoying playing it a lot.

I have lost a lot of weight over the course of the past two years, and I have started to really enjoy certain types of exercises that I didn't think I would ever like before. One of things that I really appreciate these days is walking. This is something that you don't have to pay for as it is free to walk around your local area, but it can be lovely to go around places that you never really took any notice of before. You don't have to pay for the gym, because there are other ways that you can lose weight, so I don't understand the people who spend a lot of money joining the gym.

hi, i could say that i loved stretching of my body especially in the morning to become more flexible,and also those exercise that can enhance butt and legs also,this stretching really makes my body energetic during that day and its effective for me.

I exercise quite regularly. I get the majority of my cardio in either by walking intensely for an hour to a dvd, or jogging a 5k around town. I love those "feel good" endorphins. For strength training I do a lot of body resistance activities. I enjoy dancing, but it's not something that's available to me, unless I dance at home

I workout 3 or four times per week and I love it. I do tw 90 minute workouts with weights and cardio and two sixty minute cardio programs. Some weeks I pop in a latin dance dvd or yoga.

What works for me are team sports. I find with going to the gym or jogging is that you are only accountable to yourself. When playing a team sport the games are scheduled for you and if you don't go you are letting down the team. You also get to hang out with friends or make new friends. I play ultimate frisbee and volleyball. I have played in a league called All-sorts-of-sports where you play something different each week (basketball, volleyball, ball hockey, dodgeball). It was a good way to try out a bunch of different things.
