Fitness includes nutrition but I'll save that for another time.
There are activities that I'll rotate. Not on a set schedule with the exception of sortof biking and weight training but more of when I feel like doing it.
Weight Training - I try to be regular on this. All about correcting imbalances and then building from there. I use strict form most of the time and keep things tight while performing the movements. There are certain poundages I won't go above because I don't care nor do I think they will get me anything. For example I don't go over 225lbs on the times I choose to flat bench.
Bicycling - I do try to be regular on this. My longest weekend rides are usually 40 milers just to not get tired of it. I only get to do that here and there due to family and coaching. Usually I am either commuting a few times a week or a 10-12 mile ride at lunch a few times a week. When I'm regular on it I do a mix of intervals, recovery rides, increased pace or just a ride to be riding.
Steps - There is a sizable earthen dam near my house and it has a set of stairs on it that I think is 76 good sized steps high. I'll walk it and then run (hitting each step) every third lap or I'll put a pack on and just walk up and down it. Tough day.
Hiking - Quick 3-4 miles trails near me that I'll go do with a quick pace.
Work Steps - I work on the fifth floor. I'll get up here and there and walk down the stairs and then back up.
Elliptical At Home - I don't use this. We just hang things on it.
