My Workout Routine

I am trying to maximize my weight loss on Nutrisystem, so I set a goal to workout at least 5 days a week. I love to be outside for my workouts and I love to mix things up.

Here is what I have been up to or am planning to try...
  • Cycling. The Mr. and I try to road bike every weekend. There is a nice paved 20 mile trail close by.
  • Treadmill. I set the incline as high as it goes (10%) and walk at the 3 speed setting. Sometimes I do walk/run intervals.
  • P90X. Whenever we have to stay inside for our workout, we turn to Tony Horton. He kicks our ass into shape.
  • Hiking. There are several places to hike around here. We just did a hike in Laguna Canyon's wilderness park. There were huge hills, so we got a really good workout. We also took a wrong turn and our 4 mile hike turned into almost 8 miles!
  • Jump Roping. It's tougher than you think. I try to jump rope a few times a week.
  • Kickboxing. The real deal kind, too. Mr. B's co-worker teaches a class once a week. Loved it.
  • Mountain Biking. We just tried this for the first time with Mr. B's cousin. Wow, what a great workout! I think we are going to add mountain bikes to our bike collection.
  • Walks with Apollo. We take the pup out for walks a few times a week.
  • Weight Training/Exercise Ball. I also incorporate my free weights and exercise ball into my workouts throughout the week.
  • Snowshoeing. I haven't done this yet, but I am watching the local snow report so we can hopefully try it this season. It sounds like a lot of fun. 
  • Tennis. I really enjoy playing tennis, but the husband does not. I need to start playing with my Mom more, so I can get better.
  • Horseback Riding. Last but certainly not least, my favorite thing to do :) I need to start making time to ride regularly.

What does everyone do for fitness? Please share :)
