Typically I go to the gym, and I alternate between running, stairmaster, the ski machine, and the elliptical runner....About 45 minutes a session. I also do 150 situps and some stretching exercises. Every blue moon I do a pilates or a step aerobics class...but I often go to the gym at "odd" hours (lunch time or late night) when they don't offer classes.

Since I am in a rut.... I'm wondering what each of you do to stay in shape? Where do you do it? How did you learn?

I'm looking for ideas to spice up my life...

Thanks for the help.
