I know, no one really LIKES to exercise, but if you're trying, what is your favorite to do? Maybe if we have some different ideas we can change it up a little and keep it from getting boring!

Personally my favorite is walking...It's easy and cost effective.

What's yours?

Mine is also walking. I find it the easiest to fit into my schedule, and I can take the kids with me if I need to.

Running, of course!

Sometimes I have to force myself to run, but I do love it. It makes me feel so good afterwards, clears my head while I am running, not to mention helps tone my body.

I also like squats... so easy to do and you can do them just about any time.

I like doing workouts on the TV, latest is the Biggest Loser Workout. It is great! it is 20 minutes long, but it makes you sweat! and you see "real" people working out.

I like walking when the weather is nice but my favorite by far is dancing with the girls! We even have our own CD burned with music and little dance routine! Now am no choreographer but they really love to follow me and even do it on their own or when they hear any of the songs that are on it.

I LOVE ballroom dancing and sword fighting. Great cardio workouts. But if I had to choose 1 actual exercise, it would be the squat. Alot of bang for your buck, and one of the most functional of exercises.

I like lower body work outs. I have always had strong legs and I know there are muscles under all these layers!! I like doing lunges, squats, dips and leg presses. I hate doing abs, but am so happy when I am done doing them!!!

Mine is also walking...I love to walk! I also like the stairclimber/stairstepper. I wish I enjoyed swimming more. My DH can just swim lap, after lap, after lap and it's such a great way to exercise.

I'm hopelessly addicted to Jazzercise. I never thought I'd like it but it is sooo much fun!

My favorite piece of equipment is the elliptical machine. I wish I could afford a nice one for home.
