Favorite work out?

Anyone try M100s? I do them if I get home from work too late to hit the gym. Plus, it only takes 5 minutes. =P

You don't need a gym for being in a good shape.

QFT

Also I don't bother with weights, I might injure myself. I have physical limitations so untill recently - the teacher retired - I took Pilates classes to keep my muscles going. I had to adapt some exercises though and as my teacher always said: the most important thing with moving is that you enjoy what you're doing.
So that wouldn't be gym for me then, where people would stare at me for obvious reasons.

I don't have a garden and am the only one in the family who doesn't have a green thumb but other than that Krischan's got a point.
I cycle to work every day, and on off days I cycle doing the groceries.

It's Co-Educational and Self-Selective.
Barring discussion of Free Will and Fate.

I could explain my favorite workout very and very detailed, but I'd only end up having to ban myself for three days, so...

YeaP !

I'm not fat, but I have to bring up this:

Why have a six-pack if you can have a whole barrel?

[Stevinator]

I do as many 12oz curls as possible.

Also, what snow does, but solo. :(

Weight wise, I try to get to the gym as many times as I can and, though there is no set workout, the usual night involves roughly:

-150-200 inclined situps, sets of 25, with or without medicine ball/35 plate
-50-100 pushups, sets of ten generally
-further 25-30 inverted pushups, by which I mean feet as high as I can get em
-leg curls/calve pushy thingy/leg lifts/adductor-abductor squeezes until each group wants me dead
-leg press, sometimes pyramid kinda deal, sometimes just cranking max, depends on how I feel and what I want out of it. Lately I've lacked power, so I've been doing 5 sets of 20 at 500.

I've been off the bike for a couple weeks as of late, but usually this is supplemented with several days a week of two to three hour rides, loaded with 20-second intervals, tempo fests, and, when I'm feeling particularly Pantani-like, 15-second mountain intervals. If you ever want to throw up fast, jump on a bike and sprint up a mountainside as hard as you can. Then wait 15 seconds and do it again.

In case you can't guess, I'm a cyclist.

I don't go to the gym... but I work out a lot in my apartment. This is how I do it if you're interested: http://intensivtraning.com/

Page is in swedish but you can probably google translate it if you want.

I really miss swimming... that's about the most enjoyable workout for me. Maybe I'll buy a bike soon; I hear that's not a bad alternative.

All the 12-milers, marathons, and incessant exercise ever gave me was shin splints. Three senior NCO's died of massive coronaries while I was at the Infantry school in Ft. Benning. So yeah, knock yourself out.
