Sports, the more challenging the better. I personally enjoy airsoft and paintball, Unfortunatly I don't get to do it anywhere near as much as I'd like. If you go into the role playing games you can end up carrying a lot of heavy **** which gives you a good work out.

IPSC, lots of short quick sprints.

And for regular excercise. I like to listen to really fast beaty music when running or doing weights. I think the key to a good work out is good music you enjoy. If your stuck listening to music you dont enjoy at the gym your not going to want to stay at the gym and work out!

I suck it up and lift Buicks!

I started jogging again I do a mile or 2 a day.

I come from the "muscle eats cals so more muscle the better" class.

Bob, et al.,

I won't regail everyone with my tales of bicycling (that is already in another thread), but I will comment on what makes "exercise" work -- it has to be something you enjoy.

Reading through the responses that is the one theme that repeats consistently. Doing something that you really like to do results in your doing it more often and thereby reaping the benefits.

The bottom line is that there is no single magic program or machine that works for everyone. For me it is a bicycle (more often the tandem bicycle) for others it is a walk, a run, an evening of ballroom dancing, et cetera.

I like to keep it fun and I like to keep it varied.

Skating one day, biking another, and just walking yet another. I absolutely loved doing things with my kids, and now with my grandson. Going to the park with him every day (whether we walk or ride a bike) can get me a good two-hour workout. But we go to different parks and do different things while there.

I love exercise, but I notice there are some things that make me do it, even when I don't feel like it:

I don't have a car. I spend probably an hour a day going from place to place by bike!

This year I started dance classes, and once you get going, you have to show up or fall behind! Also, learning a new skill makes it more interesting. And I swear, ballet uses muscles that I didn't know existed. I feel taller!

In the past, I have been on a Rec league sport team. Everyone is counting on you, so you have to show up.

Swimming...

I also play with my kids, and have volunteered to coach them in sports... soccer, baseball, football, anything.
