How many times per week do you exercise?

I started to think last night that at 37 what an old git I am starting to become. I ache, I'm stiff, I'm tired and I could do with loosing a pound or two (shut it Chimps..)

Thinking back - only a couple of years ago I used to play 5-a-side footie twice a week while doing a third session of something else active. Nowadays - I cycle a mile a day to work.

So.. come on YD.. inspire me (or depress me ). How many times each week do you engage in exercise for 30 minutes or more in one session?

About the same number of times I dive

Exercise is not good for you. Show me an old athlete and I'll show you a freak

I generally to exercise more than four times a week, jogging 3-4 times, cycling and taking my dog for long walks. Oh, and diving too .

In recent weeks I haven't done much, mainly due to work, but the dark nights are coming and I like to jog in the dark, so I think I'll be getting back into the swing of things soon.

i go running twice a week a the mo.. i would go to a gym as well but the closest decent one is 30miles from where i live..

but some of the shore dives that i do more than make up for the lack of gyms!!

Last year I decided I had to start. I bought a Concept II rowing machine and some running shoes. By the early part of this year I'd got my weight down from 15st 4lb down to 14st.

I'm now hoverring around the 15st margin again. In my defence frequent travel and long business meetings makes a regular exercise program very difficult but it's not impossible.

I need to start motivating myself again!

At least 2 sessions of an hour on an excercise bike, and a 20 mile ride on a real one.
