I need a routine!
I'm at my halfway point in weight loss. I'm 5'3", 160 lbs and would like to be 124. Now that classes are ending I have time in the summer to really dedicate myself to working out, but I don't know what I should be doing every day. I lost my first 35 with yoga/pilates/jogging/lifting 5 lb weights. I want to challenge myself even more now to get to my goal.
Does anyone have some examples of what they do during the week?
Thanks!

Heres my weekly routine:
Monday Kickboxing - 75mins
Tuesday Gym workout - Good mix of cardio and weights
Wednesday Rest day - Sometimes play squash
Thursday Taekwondo - 90 minutes
Friday Gym Workout
Saturday Rest day
Sunday Gym Workout
I also ride my bike to work everyday, and walk the dog on an evening.
Happy training!

I enjoy my morning walk! I love to get the mail hear the birds singing early in the morning. I try to keep it simple that way my goals last a life time.
Try adding some heavier weights to your workout. It will burn more calories but don't worry you won't bulk up or anything just get sleep sexy muscles.
Add something that sounds fun and challenges your body in a new way like Kickboxing or Taekwondo! You will work out new muscles and be able to kick some butt!
I love to mix things up with different exercise every day to keep my body guessing.
Mon- swim laps (50 min)
Tue- jog (35 min)
Wed- strength training class at my gym (60 min)
Thu- spin class (60 min)
Fri- jog/strength training (35 min/25 min)
Sat- horseback ride (60 min)
Sun- yoga/rest (a nice relaxing yoga class)
Mostly I find it's the swimming that tires me out and kicks it up a notch. I try different swim workouts and different strokes to get me out of my comfort zone. If it's raining on jog days, I do the elliptical trainer.
Good luck and have fun!

- Monday - 15min cardio, 45min weights - Chest and back
- Tuesday - 15min cardio, 45min weights - Shoulders and abs
- Wednesday - 15min cardio, 45min weights - Biceps, Triceps, Forearms
- Thursday - 15min cardio, 45min weights - Legs
- Friday- 2 sessions- 45min cardio / 45min cardio
- Saturday - 90min cardio
- Sunday - Off day (or maybe very light cardio)
~Cardio varies between the ArcTrainer, Elliptical, and Treadmill
~Times vary but total time each trip to the gym is typically about an hour
~Menu always varies depending on how much I can burn in my workouts.
thanks everyone! So, this is what I am thinking about doing:
Mondays: 60 min cardio
Tuesdays: 30 min cardio, 30 min strength (biceps, triceps, pecs, forearms)
Wednesdays: 30 min cardio, 30 min strength (shoulders, back)
Thursdays: cardio/pilates, 60 min total
Fridays: 30 min cardio, 30 min leg work
Saturdays: yoga/pilates, 60 min total
Sundays: walking/yoga, 60 min total
I don't know if I will be able to accomplish this right now, but I will work to it.
