Do you all do exercises?

 

 

[Geek0zoid 1,468]

I actually have a gym membership. I do all sorts of exercises.

But I mostly like to run. I love the rush I get when I move really fast, even if I'm just jogging.

[Nobody Special 210]

I would be exercising everyday, but right now I'm kind of aroud 700 miles from home. I can still do stuff that requires no equipment though. I don't do very advanced stuff and do what I see others around me do. I'm just about in every sport our school offers though, that keeps me tone ish. I'm still overweight, but I have changed my eating habits and am losing weight.

Yes I do, 1 or 2 mile run with a 10lb OTV, and a 40-60lb backpack, then with that same stuff on, pull ups and push ups (yes its military related, shocker) but for a 15 year old girl, you must be jacked 

[Shiki 5,855]

I am extremely super duper active. Especially as of late.

 

I make sure to exercise my fingers every day by typing at least 100,000 characters per day.

 

Every now and then (not too often because I don't want to wear myself out), I play Stepmania, which gets me mashing tonnes upon tonnes of keys per day.

 

My fingers are the strongest fingers in existence.

 

:) :) :)

[Clockwork Chaos 219]

being as lazy as i am, i only do indirect exercises XD by which i mean: if i need to escape into music, i'll go out walking for a couple miles so music time doesn't get interrupted, other than that playing bass exercises my right bicep and left forearm

 

Other than that... nope XD

[Scootalove 10,689]

The exercises that I do are, pushups and jumping jacks just to get active. Even though I used to hate being in Gym, I'm pretty used to it. So, I wouldn't mind exercising a lot at all.

[Thunderchild 875]

Well, I've lifted for the last 30 years or so on and off-not going to bore you with the details, it's the usual stuff. I lift 4 times a week, life permitting and split things up according to body parts-legs, shoulders, chest, back, arms. Each workout takes at least 1 1/2 hours without cardio time. I train alone in my basement-picked up most of my weights from yard sales. Currently I've got about 1200lbs of weight down there.

 

Got sick of the gym scene-some guy who looks like a matchstick with the wood scraped off telling me about what I'm doing wrong.

[Thuja 3,659]

I don't know the name of any of the exercises I do but I mostly do resistance training.  I sometimes do some yoga and belly dancing but I'm not all that motivated to keep up with those two right now. 

[~Master~ Button Mash 2,307]

Um...all of those? XD I have a gym, and I try to go almost everyday. I usually separate sections of my body into days, with the occasional cardio-only day.

[SCS 7,537]

lol, I don't know what half of those exercises are. I mainly exercise by doing taekwondo, and by taking some walks. I would like to incorporate some more exercise into my life though. Now I can just check this thread for ideas

[Xievie 498]

My exercise: Videogames

 

Does that count? I'm exercising my fingers! That works, right?

._. I'm so unfit. I'm really skinny. I need to eat more, and I need to work out or something for muscle. I lack upper body strength especially.

[Foreigner And Lover 207]

Usually I go to the gym three times a week. Mostly treadmill, but I also lift weights a lot (doing it right now lol)

More importantly, I do intramural wrestling, which keeps me in great condition. I'm trying hard to get a six pack, I lost mine when summer started and I emptied my parents' fridge every day.

[Vay 175]

Weight lifting and cardio. Weight lifting is excellent for losing body fat and toning up. Cardio is just fun. I find it has helped a lot since I've nearly lost a stone.

[Batbrony 16,055]

Given my isolated location this summer, I've been pretty limited in some of the exercises I can add to my routine.  However, after purchasing a couple of 30 pound weights from MC Sports in Traverse City, I have managed to put together a pretty nice and challenging routine, which I usually only have time for on Saturday mornings.

 

Calisthenics

 

I start my routine with some calisthenics, which include:

 

Push-Ups

Jumping Jacks

Lunges

Squats

Flutter Kick

Plank

 

I would do crunches and sit-ups, but unfortunately I'm staying at a house entirely with hardwood or stone floors, which are just too hard of surfaces.  I tried before and it was just a no go, just hurt my back too much.  But eh, whatever, what can ya do?

 

Weights

Next I tackle some free weight exercises with my two 30 pound dumbbells.  Usually I'll do the following:

 

Bicep Curls 3x10

Hammer Curls 3x10

Front Raises 3x10

Standing Dumbbell Triceps Extension 3x10

Dumbbell Chest Press (which I have to do by using two beds of all things, it's really wonky!) 4x10

 

Looking to add more weights to my routine, but I need to pickup some more dumbbell routines first.  Usually, when I'm at an actual gym, I'll have A LOT more weights in my routine than I do at the moment.  Again, being in the middle of nowhere and having little time to workout is throwing me off a bit; thankfully I still get plenty of exercise lifting things for my stocker job at the grocery store in town.

 

Cardio

After my weights and calisthenics are complete, I take a 3.75 - 4 mile run in the Port Oneida Rural Historic District, which is really beautiful and refreshing.

[Ghost 173]

  I do a lot of those exercises you listed when I go to the gym.  I haven't been to the gym too often though over the past 6 months. There's a lake I like to run around, which is about 4 miles if you do the whole thing.  I sometimes run on the beach too, which is so much harder than running on pavement, or at least it is for me.  I used to swim competitively, so I still swim, just not on a team anymore.

 

  I also play badminton, am starting hip hop dance classes and occasionally play tennis and racquetball.  Sometimes I walk around my city just cause, which is good exercise too.

 

  I have a pull up bar in my apartment and I also do core and other exercises that you don't need equipment for.

 

  If you don't swim, I'd recommend it.  It's good, low impact cardio.

Whaaaaa?!?!

 

How do you find time/ even do all of that stuff

 

I Struggle to do my leg exercises my phisio gave me to do to get rid of plantar phaciaitus (not the way to spell it lol)!

 

I do a few bicep curls every night and then walk/bike ride with the occasional situps and weekly playing of squash, but appart from that I don't do anything .

 

I'm not that strong, but I've never been that bothered, I would like to get a bit fitter so I can be better at squash, but thats where my bike riding is coming in !

[Adorkable 2,737]

Thumb-exercises, if you catch my drift.

 

 

 

 

 

But seriously, I don't actually "exercise" that much. But every once in a while, I'll take a nice jog if the weather is nice. I also get a lot of exercise in at work.

[Dark Horse 12,961]

Sheesh.. I just try and get a 5k run in around the phoenix park every few days, weather permitting. I see I'm way behind some people on levels on fitness, specially the OP.    I'm impressed your able to manage all that.

[Steve Piranha 29,424]

Hmmm, I like to walk, push ups, abs, and bars mostly

[Ricebug 555]

Run the track, bench press, pull ups, push ups, crunches, sit ups, medicine ball exercises, basket ball, base ball, bat mitten, jump rope....Just naming what we did in gym today :3.

[NotoriousSMALL 1,984]

I run a mile nearly everyday. I want to start doing two miles, and then maybe more considering my friends want me to do cross country. Still iffy about that.

I also do a workout program called Athlean X. It's no BS either, this dude who made it was a personal trainer for a professional baseball team (forget which one) and is jacked, the workouts get progressively harder and harder and there's even tests.
