I love walking. Can't do running and aerobic classes were never for me. But get me on an open trail and I can go forever :)

When the weather is warm I absolutely love to hike or ride my bike with Biscuit.
When it's cold I very much enjoy the elliptical with my Ipod on a great audiobook.  Have a Healthy Day...

I forgot to say that I love cycling. But in my climate it is something I can only do in the summer and early fall. There is nothing better than a ride through the farmlands here.

Walking for now. Its easy, I can do it anywhere and my dog loves to go with me.

I walk because it's virtually free, but if I had my choice of machines I'd be rowing.
I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.

I love swimming. It feels so good to be in the water, very relaxing...but still a great workout. I also like the three Amy Dixon videos I have.

I enjoy doing Taebo, and I have joined the Sparks People Boot Camp. I have been enjoying these as well.

I would have to say my favorite is walking, however I just started to work out with the ball and really like that. I joined the Sparks Bootcamp challenge and have been able to do the first 5 days so far, it is strength training and toning...really need this!!!!

I do the light one's I picked out when I joined Spark America. I had to get easy ones that wouldn't do more damage to my body and set my Fibromyalgia off.

Taebo.i love the fast pace of it. I also like the carmen electric strip to fit video. It makes me feel sexy. I also have the girls next door workout video. They are fun and upbeat.

When I first lost the weight I was surprised to find that I enjoyed weight training so much. I also learned how to inline skate and loved it.
a few years ago I was into running. I never thought I'd enjoy that, but at that I did very much and I'll never forget the feeling it gave me. What I like best are dancing, yoga, and kickboxing, but none of those surprised me, I expected to like them because they are things I have always either done or thought of doing. ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~

I don't much like anything but water aerobics, Dance Dance Revolution and Tae Kwon Do (a real class of adults, not a video).

I have been enjoying getting up to speed as a "runner" (jogger/trotter for normal-length legged people!) I never thought of myself as a runner, but I'm actually enjoying it.
What kind of exercise are you finding fun - and maybe a bit surprised that you like it? Running? Elliptical? Step aerobics? Weight Training? Let us know. Maybe you're passion for your exercise will inspire someone else to try it! Kate Kate
