What is your workout routine?
I'm interested to hear what sorts of exercise routines you all do... please be specific (times, weights, reps, etc...). Don't just say "I lift weights". :-)
My own workout routine:
2 x per week: Sparring (boxing) for 10 3:00 rounds (between rounds we do pushups, cruches, or bear crawls for 30-45 seconds)
2 x per week: Leg Cardio (3 sets of 6 reps squat presses, 3 sets of 6 reps roman deadlifts, 15 minutes of 1:00 sprint intervals)
1 x per week: Sports activity (either 2 sets of tennis or 4-5 hours skiing)
Interested to hear yours.

I play basketball on Tues, Thurs, and Sun.... days in between i usually lift and ride the bike for a while.... I usually focus on shoulders and legs... do a lot of squats, toe raises, leg press, mainly that kind of stuff.... Plus it depends how busy the gym is and if the stations i usually use are packed

Do you do low-weight/hi-rep or high-weight/low-rep? What sort of poundage do you use on each? How long do you generally ride the bike? Do you have a distance, time, or calorie goal?

I generally do lower weights... Generally squat 280 or 300 for reps... Leg press in the 360-380 range... Toe Raises around 230-250.... i like to ride the bike for at least half hour at the beginning and end of my work out... I dont really set a goal on the bike except the time... just keep it around the same RPM the entire ride.... RPM depends on the day it is and how my legs feel going into it

I do a lot of running (anywhere from sprints to about 5-6 miles) and then your standard weight stuff (chest, biceps, shoulders etc) and I try to do a lot of sports (golf, hockey, softball/baseball, rock climbing). Mostly though I try to vary my workout all the time instead of getting into that routine. When it gets too routine my workout tends to stagnate and I feel like you get better results from a lot of variation

Cool thread. This is my routine when I go to the Y (2-3 times a week):
leg press machine 150 lbs. 25 reps
leg extension machine 110 lbs. 10 reps
leg curl machine 50 lbs. 15 reps (I don't do the typical machines though where you rest your face on a flat surface - the one I use is like a reverse of the leg extension machines..instead of bringing the weight up with your feet, you bring it down with them; works the hamstrings much more than the quads)
bicep machine 30 lbs. 10 reps
tricep extension machine 50 lbs. 10 reps
free weight bicep curls 15 lbs. 10 reps (two dumbbells at once)
free weight overhead bicep lifts 15 lbs. 25 reps (one dumbbell)
shoulder press machine 50 lbs. 10 reps
at least one mile running (usually around two..I do 7.2 mph on the treadmill on 0% incline and/or 3.6 mph on a 10% incline)

Working at a golf course, I am constantly working out. Averaging about 35,000 steps a day in a 8 hour day, along with all the lifting it's a good workout. I try to get out at least 2 times a week to hit golf balls/play18, and once a week I play basketball.
