I think I would like to have at least a partner to work out together with. I don’t think I’m ready to do it by myself since I don’t really know what I’m doing and I’ll just end up quitting early.

It seems to be soo much easier for guys to lean out though. My BF use to work out a lot too but now he doesn’t have much time except for soccer.

Do you like working out alone or in a group? Most say it’s more motivating in group classes but I actually like working out alone better.

Thanks for all the links, very helpful time too, when everyone’s still on the resolutions’ bandwagon lol. I was thinking about starting the P90x but I’m going to check these out first. I didn’t really have the 1-1.5 hours to devote to p90 anyways.

Some great sites there, i’d only seen one before (guess which one!!)

Thanks for the feedback too, I feel really bad when I go to update the site and it’s been more than a few days.

So one of my goals this year is a minimum of 3 posts per week. Feel free to send some abuse my way if I start to lapse!

I need to check those out you’re a warrior , Katy. The routines look pretty intimidating.

I am sooo sending my boyfriend these websites! He used to be in the BEST shape – ever. I’m talking 6 pack and running miles everyday b/c of soccer. Sadly, I didn’t know this side of him since it was back in HS! He’s definitely gained the college pounds…haha. Thanks for the site you gym nut!

Go through her archives and do some of her beginner/less intense ones if you’re just getting back into exercising again. She doesn’t joke when she says her work outs are intense!

I really lack the discipline to stick to a gym routine! I tried and failed so many times already… BUT my family recently got a treadmill, that should be a good (re)start for me!

gosh, I can’t even look at those blogs… I’d probably go hide and be embarassed… I need to go to the gym. STAT! Pilates… I miss you, but you know I’m so lazy right?

Thanks for sharing! I am hooked on Oxygen mag so I always check out their site for great workouts http://www.oxygenmag.com/. I also love http://www.pursebuzz.com for beauty/hair stuff.

Where did you get the scrip for “like” at the end of the posts like facebook has? I love it!!!

Thanks for sharing! I don’t read any fitness blogs because the ones I’ve stumbled upon have been “too much” if you know what I mean!

Hmmm to be honest I’ve never tried to read a fitness blog… but I’ve tagged them in my bookmarks to see how i feel later!

I don’t read fitness blogs but was hoping for something to motivate me to get fit this year. After all being skinny and unhealthy is just as bad as being overweight and unfit! I might have a look at the first site seeing it has work out vids with work outs I can do in my own home!

I’m going to try working out this year! I feel like such a fat lump. =*(

ps. The restaurant my family picture was taken in was Golden Swan.

The gym is definitely packed, and it does make it harder on regular gym-goers. But I just can’t judge these people and am instead encouraging them to keep it up

I am intimidated that these people (and you) are so fit! =envy= *does crunches*

I feel it would be really great if I started working out but for now I’m okay with how I look and I think until I start gaining heavy pounds from something, I will continue with the healthy lifestyle I already eat. I don’t workout but I try to stay away from fat and sugar.

Oooh interesting links. Definitely will be checking them out. Haha, I’m such a workout noob. Even though I did sports in high school, I can’t do anything by myself. It just feels really different when you’re doing it together with a group and there’s someone coaching you through it.

Sadly, the only health related site I visit is Yahoo! Health. ^^;;

Thank you for these sites. While I’m already quite a healthy person I’ve been meaning to get more involved/knowledgeable for a while.

Thank you for sharing those links! I rarely read any fitness/health blogs and now I’m going to spend hours going through all those. I think I’m going to try some of the Body Rock workouts!

I wouldn’t want to be as cut as Zuzana but I definitely want her arms… I think her abs are too bulky though. I don’t think I can ever be that strict on my diet to lean out like that though.

By: jen

Body Rock is the best! My goal is to have a body like Zuzana’s. *daydreams* …one day.

Oh dude, thanks so much for this! I am in the process of getting into a workout routine and these will definitely help!
