working out

Who of us is still working out at the gym? and what does your work out consist of?

I try to go about 4-5 times a week. 30 to 45 mins walking and the weight machines. I dont lift more than 20 on my arms and 30 on my legs.

I only walk on the TM now. Around 3-3.5mph and 2% incline. I wish I still did weights, good for you! I get SOB sometimes but not gasping. If you are gasping or can't talk to someone you may be working too hard.

I do a yoga class once a week it's not prenatal so it's a little more intense and I stretch 7 nights a week for 10 min and try to do 20 min cardio and strength about 3 times a week. I work 50 hours plus go to grad school so time is limited and I get tired

I'm down to 2 to 3 days a week of either 1) swimming 40 laps (which is about a half mile) which takes me about an hour or 2) walking uphill at a 4% incline at 2.5 for an hour and doing a modified Pilates arm/shoulder routine.  I'm doing less walking

I've been doing prenatal Pilates and wals around the neighborhood with DH. I never was a huge gym person before....

I'm battling tendonitis in one ankle so I've been going to aqua fitness with the old ladies and swimming.

ETA I also chase a one and a half year old all day and we go to the zoo a couple times a week.

I usually do the stairmaster,elliptical and lift 4 times a week. I recently added yoga... Which has helped my pain tremendously.

I still work out at least 5 days a week. I'll either do this Moms Into Fitness cardio and toning DVD I bought at target about 40 mins long or I go to the gym to do the fat burn cycle on the elliptical. Once a week I also do prenatal yoga. Seems to be doin

I have trouble setting boundaries for myself when I workout. I was an athlete for about ten years and have been working out since I quit my sport 11 years ago and don't really know when to stop. I was afraid of pushing too far in my pregnancy because m
