Alright, with one of my new years resolutions being to drop the 40 pounds I've gained in the last year, I figured it would be fun to see what everyone on here does to stay in shape.
I'll start:
I used to race mountain bikes semi-professionally, but when I got tired of training I sold my bike and put the money into other hobbies. Used to train on my bike about 300-350 miles per week, along with light weight training. But I let myself go for the last 18 months or so and lost my endurance, along with packing on 40 pounds of fat.
So my new plan is to get a new bike for this summer and get into riding again. And since I HATE HATE HATE lifting weights and working out in a gym, I'm starting a new workout - I got an old tractor tire and a sledge hammer and put them in my garage. Gonna start beating the life out of a tire with a 16 pound hammer. Can't think of a better workout that uses the whole body and is fun. Blast some music and hit the tire for 15 minutes a day. It's something I can stick with, because it's actually fun.
Let's not mention my diet though... it's not good and I haven't gotten up the will power to fix it yet.
So.. What do you do to work out/stay in shape?
