OP here - thank you all. I appreciate it. With nice weather today, I also did a bit hiking ~16,000 steps with good amount of elevation. it feels good to be sweaty.

I am 41. I run 3-4 miles 2-3 times a week and lift weights 2-3 times a week. I will do a fitness blender HIIT or a yoga class here and there. In the winter I Nordic ski a lot, which improves my cardio and running immensely. I am usually in better shape in February than in July!

I do orange theory 5/6 times a week and a yoga class. Would like to incorporate more strength specific excercises since it’s only about 60 minutes weekly with OTF but I’ll work into that eventually.

Late 40s
Peloton Strength 3x week
Yoga 2x week
Walk 2.5 miles 2x week
I don’t have a set schedule of what I do on certain days. I just go by what I feel my body needs. I usually do something every day, but will occasionally take a day off if my body needs it.

I run 4 to 5 miles about 6 days a week. Do peloton maybe once a week or whenever weather is not good for running. Also bike a lot, but mainly as a mode of transport rather than pure exercise. I really need to get back into a weight training routine though.

Yoga and push-ups during long conference calls (yay wfh!). 11 mile bike rides 3-4 times a week on a nearby trail: The first 5 miles are all gradually uphill and I push myself to push through it at the highest gear. I hate running so this is a better cardio for me and great leg muscle builder. Early-to-mid 40s woman.

Body pump class twice a week, 1.5 hour ballet class twice a week, then maybe a barre/yoga/stretch class on Sundays. More toned now that I’m in my mid-forties.

-Peloton ~4 times/week (2 are usually intense interval rides, 2 more chill)
-Meditation (via the Peloton app) daily
-As much walking the dog as I can fit in
