I got back into runnin yesterday. I go back and forth from runnin for about a month or so and then not doin anything for a bit. I got my brother runnin with too; makes me wanna workout more often since I got someone runnin with me. I blew up my bike tir the other day too. I wasn't payin attention to the tire, just left the compressor on there for a few seconds and boom. So I had to get another inner tube. Thats a surprisin thing to happen when your face is right next to it.

Biggest thing imo is watching what you eat and keep moving. You don't have to go out of your way to a gym with fancy machines to work out, incorporate movement into your everyday life. Take a 20min walk to relax everyday, walk to school/work if you're able, limit the time you're sitting down in one spot for less than 3 hours if able, somewhere around there is when you're metabolism starts to slow down or something I heard. Then if you actually want to lose more than 5 lbs of weight and keep it off, you can make the time to "workout", though I still don't feel the need to go to a gym. I'll run outside when I feel like it, and do pushups and situps, squats and whatnot! Listen to your body and feel whats going on ;o
Just how I view working out; shouldn't have to pay to "workout". And on that note, I'm going to go for a nice long walk!
I ride my bike 15+ miles per day... until about a week and a half ago... then I bought a car... and the novelty of having a car has caused me to slack on my cycling... gotta get back on two wheels very soon, though... I miss it.

Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official; "You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."
The Chief nodded in agreement.
The official continued; "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"
The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied.. "When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water. Women did all the work, Medicine Man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex."
Then the chief leaned back and smiled; "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."
I started doing yoga this autumn and I find it kinda fun. I attend to two different courses per week (ashtanga and hatha) and both are one hour long. I should also start jogging again... I always start it, go on for awhile and then get a flu or something like that and never continue after recovering.Hopeless...
PS. This HeiaHeia website makes exercising also quite fun, when you actually wait to be able to add new icon to your training log.. xD And it's also somewhat motivating to see how much your friends do..

That's a really cool website, I might have to join.
I've only worked out twice in the last month (unless sex counts...) because I've jumped from illness to illness. On Monday, I'm hoping to get back into the swing of things again, and on Tuesday, I think I might brave AQUASIZE again!
