How did you do that? Did you just try and push too much or did something just go wrong? Sounds scarey.

I go to the gym 3 or 4 times a week and do a 10k workout on the cross trainer plus some weights. I eat and drink way too much though and this is hindering my fitness.

Fortunately I work out every day: I travel to/from work by bicycle, about an hour every day (that's fast cycling - like 25 kph). Unfortunately I love to eat too ... Wink

Hey, I've been meaning to get back to the gym dammit!  Leave me alone. LOL
That really needed to be one of the choices.

I'm working on getting up earlier to take a run at the beach but it's hard to do.
I've been pretty lazy recently but since my brother found a local grappling gym so
I have to get back into shape.
Right now all I'm working on is the basics: diet, sit-ups, push-ups, pull-ups, and stretching.

I used to do a lot of work out, but I broke my triceps doing pushups, so now I only run 3 kilometers a day, not much, but I also walk in the courts a lot.

Mmm...I do a bit of weight training now and then, just to keep somewhat strong. I'll be biking to and from work a lot over the summer.

Friede and I play tennis at least twice a week. if we didn't we would soon look like billiard balls, since we are restaurant owners. we also do yoga; the kids love it when we put our feet behind our heads and walk on our hands

I don't really workout as such. My physique is that of an ectomorph, so obviously weight training is hardly going to be truly effective. I used to be a really big fitness nut, back in 2003 I used to do 4-5 sets of 70-80 pushups a day, ran 1.6-2km (that's about 1-1.2 miles in the 'old' system) several times a week, although I was more than capable of easily pushing 3kms if I wanted.
By about 12-13 months ago, due to serious lack of exercise, my fitness was at the absolute worst it had been. I was eating junk food all the time, occasional smoker, binge drinker, and maybe got in 5 minutes a day of bike riding, to just go and sit at my friend's house and play guitar and sometimes eat more anyway. At that stage, I could only run about 400 meters before being out of breath. In the last 3 months, I've got off my butt again, and now back to being able to run over 1km again, but only about once a week though.

Work out? No


But I do walk everyday. At least 3 miles each day, sometimes more.
Walking may not be very vigorous, but it's still gotta be better than doing nothing.

I occasionally walk around campus (or town in the summer/winter/time off).
 
Thats it.
 
I love cake and couches too...so I'm confused how to vote.
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

Major couch potato here.  The only exercise I do now are 12 oz. curls and whatever calories Wii Sports and Guitar Hero III can burn.  I need to get more exercise but I'm just so averse to it now - it's sad, I used to be a pretty good athlete in my youth.

I was into sports all during my youth,and used to work out and run a lot,on top of football,lacrosse and baseball practice.Then I was in the Army and you have no choiceTongue
 
I don't work out anymore,but I run about 5 miles every morning.If it's a nice day I might put in 10 miles on a Saturday or Sunday.

Not been running regularly for a while, really, since the ground around here's been a bit muddy and my indoor shoes have disintegrated. Go to the gym (some weights, a little cardio) roughly twice a week, sometimes more. Do some exercise at home. The only sport I take remotely seriously is squash, which I get to play for maybe 6 hours a week now. Used to fence and do judo until recently, but the convenient judo club shut down, and I really didn't feel that I was fencing enough to make it worth doing. I enjoy walking, so I go for large walks once a month or so, whenever it's possible.
