What is your favorite form of exercise?

I would have to say that my favorite form of exercise is playing football or baseball catch with an adult friend or a kid. But right beyond that are swimming and cycling. I try to eat well, but I'm convinced that the key to good health is getting off of your fatty acids and doing something outside that you enjoy. Your thoughts?

I enjoy walking. If it's out in nature, we call it "hiking," even if the terrain is flat.

@sophie09 Sounds good to me. Beats eating bon bons and watching TV.

Usually in-home walking and pedaling. podrunner.com is good to workout to. A few days ago, I found a virtual walking website called worldwalking.org Very neat! One can walk all over the United States or Canada, for example.

I mow for exercise. Whether I like it or not. I like to swim. I like long leisurely walks where I can be nosey and see what people are doing. Sadly, I am not very athletic. I used to like to dance.

@TheHorse — depends on where I am. In the gym, music. Out in the hiking trails, quiet.

That's a good thing. Do you have music on? Or do you go with nature? Or conversation with a friend?

Does watching also considered as exercise? You know, eye exercise Just kidding. For me, I enjoyed exercise outdoors. Jogging, cycling. Or if indoors, do some stretching, splits....

Pretty much walking and working in the garden for me. I will walk to the corner store for a snack. Figuring since I walked I earned it.. I been doing good eating a lot of fruit, and trying for the most part to stay healthy. I have eaten worse in the past. So trying to be good about it, walking I have always done.

Can you lie on your back and wiggle your legs slightly in the air? That's one of my tummy exercises.

As a young adult playing in a softball league and playing tennis were my favorite ways to exercise. I coached tennis and worked as an instructor until numerous wear and tear injuries and a bad back condition I inherited caught up with me. With a back support I am able to play golf occasionally (a sport I learned from my Dad) but primarily confine myself to walking and casual bike riding now.
