With the New Year coming, I am really trying to get back into exercising on a regular basis.

I use my treadmill (5-7) times a week. I am also doing some weights, and some floor exercises (sit ups etc.).

I am always looking for new things to try....anyone have some great exercising/workout ideas? Videos?

I love the Richard Simmons tapes. He drives me a little crazy...but he uses awesome music...the kind I can sing with! (Plus the people in his videos are pretty "regular"....all types, colors, and sizes!!!!)

We just got a mini trampoline for Christmas. We put that in the basement, and now I can bounce around on that. I like to jump rope, do you????

Treadmil is easiest for me. I also read while I'm on it so that helps me stay with it. I too like Richard Simmons tapes, they are fun. Taebo is also a great workout. I have the one for those over 40 which I haven't done since I hurt my back.

I started doing yoga this summer. I love it. You just stretch and feel so good afterward. I have an am tape and a pm take I really like the am tape it is only 15 minutes and it's nothing to difficult. It makes me feel like I stand taller and straighter.
