I def like workouts with goals....doing a mile in a certain time.  Or a set time like 20 mins to see what your maxium distance is.  Zumba is a blast, but totally what you get out of it.  Not into step, but I find it slightly dangerous to those whom lack some coordination. LOL

I like jogging, swimming, and basketball.
I don't jog on the streets. Normally I go to LA Fitness, but my father has bad lungs, so when I run for a short period of time, my lungs can't handle it and I have to stop. I swim at LA Fitness, too, because public places are dirty, small, and cramped. You can barely swim at public pools. At LA Fitness, you actually have a hot tub and normally 1 or 2 lanes free. Also, the hygiene is much better. I play basketball and have been getting better and better.  :D

I love to run - although I haven't in about a year since I had a baby in November...definitely need to get back into that! I actually use some workout dvd's from beachbody - it's the Turbo Jam series and right before I get pregnant I had gotten the Turbo Fire (their version of the P90X). It's an awesome workout that is fun and is definitely a total body workout. My arms never looked so good after that (not scary Madonna good, but nicely toned)!

I really enjoy Tai Chi and Martial Arts and I also do a lot of walking. My husband just started doing hour walks every day so it's nice to have someone to chat with on a good walk. The little walks with the dog don't count because it's stop and sniff or do business every couple of steps.

Walking. I even do it without actually thinking about it. No, I don't mean I got up and went to the kitchen or something. Sometimes I just find myself outside, walking around the neighborhood with my ipod. I find it really relaxing.

If I go to the gym I still walk, and if I have a partner I like to play racquetball.

My favorite exercise of all time is running!  :heart: I am a very devoted runner and I love the thrill I get when entering a competition, such as a 5k, half marathon and eventually a whole marathon, which I plan on doing by this Fall.
Running has been my whole life and really the only exercise where I can let go of any stress that I have and be in a completely different state of mind. I hope I can continue running until I am 80 years old.......which is another goal I have in mind! lol  :notworthy:

I use my tead climber every day, do free weights and ab work 3 times a week, some yoga and stretching, and I ride my bike. I think this is a pretty well rounded workout, with the emphasis on cardio which helps the heart.

The elliptical if it is a best quality one. I use this because it is like running in the air and is not hard on the hips knees like all the others are to me. If its a cheap one then its to hard and not for real. Even though it is like running in the air you get all the same changes as if you ran on land.

Growing up I was a gymnast.  Played Softball...shot hoops and was always on the go.  I never liked jogging or running.  Than my best friend and I moved in with one another.  She has really long legs so her step forced me to speed walk.  Since I felt like a goober walking like that I would "jog" next to her.  Before I knew it I started shedding pounds...my outlook on life was clear and I felt great.  I went as far as getting a Y membership so I could use the treadmills to job in the winter months.  I never thought in a million years jogging would be my favorite form of exercise.

Most of the time I walk or row. But when I go to the gym about once a week and beginning to really like the exercise bike. :wave: :peace:
I love running, doing pushup, squatts, and crunches. But, i want to try something different like insanity, I heard that it is very intense and want to give it a try. The best thing about this is that yo dont need any weights heck you that is good real good,

Swimming is the only type of exercise that I can stick to for a long long while.
