    Default Exercise

    How often do you exercise in a week.

    I do it 4 times a week, (Tuesday and Thursday on cross trainer, Friday 5 a side indoor football and Sunday 11 a side football).

    Default Re: Exercise

    I try to exercise Monday-Friday, but do skip some days according to how busy I am. Nothing too strenuous, just a few km on the exercise bike, some sit ups and a few weights on the arms. As it gets warmer I might start hiking one morning each weekend. I also walk everywhere which keeps me in relatively good nick.

    I'm nowhere near as healthy as I was when I was in my teens though. Sport was an everyday part of my life then. I have little to no access to any sports anymore and that's a shame because that is a fun way to stay healthy. What I currently do is bloody boring and very solitary. Even listening to music becomes a chore when on the exercise bike. I would love to play football and cricket, but nobody seems to do that here. Even kids spend more time playing FIFA rather than getting out and playing proper.

    Miles, I know what you mean about the exercise it is boring, I tend to do 10 second sprints on the bike for 35 minutes which is tiring and run on the cross trainer for 12KM in 37 minutes. The football is the proper work out and far more enjoyable, except the injuries.

    Come on Drago you can do more than that. Push yourself, no pain no gain.

    Andre I said exercise, walking and even fishing is better than meditation.

    Default Re: Exercise

    I work out 5-6 days a week. I have two basic routines. One day I will do over and hour of cardio broken into two sections (two of running, the rowing machine, or the elliptical) and then the next day I will do over an hour of weights (on a series of weight machines, I'm just about to learn the proper free weight technique though) followed by half an hour on the elliptical. I also periodically attend workout classes at the gym.

    Default Re: Exercise

    I cycle 30-40 minutes flat out 3 days a week (to work, stopping my road work mind... used to do a lot of sprint training). Sparring/boxing conditioning I try to do 2-3 times, twice a week I'll do some strength and power training, lots of olympic lifts, compound and explosive movements and spread through out all of that I do a lot of rehab work on the smaller muscles of my torn shoulder - looking to get back to competiting by the end of the summer.

    On rest days I do a lot of foam rolling and stretching, I need to start swimming more because it's the one movement my body is poor at.
