    NUF is a novel forum. Most people here reads a lot. Some may be like me, a certified couch potato. I don't really have a workout routine. But I do a lot of things around the house so it's not that bad. I also do stretches in the morning and take regular walks.

    Anyway, while I was sweating like a pig earlier, a random thought came to me. Fitness-consious people of NUF, what's your workout routine? How, why and when did you start? Any random shares out there?

    I try to do something different each day.
    On day I will try to do 100 push ups. On other days, 100 squats.
    On other days, I try to do 100 chin/pull ups. (My arms tend to get tired around 40.)
    Note, I don't do it in one go. I break it up into parts.
    I also try to go to the gym once a week for the electric bike.
    I will soon start to incorporate jogging once a week as well.

    Other than that, I do daily stretching.

    Can your back handle it? I was under the impression you still feel the aches here and there.

    My back doesn't hurt anymore. I also try to avoid things that would hurt it. Annoying, running too often is one of those things that will hurt it. >.>
    Exercises that would involve jumping around are also banned.
    It's annoying, really

    I see. Be careful when incorporating jogging to your routine then.

    Once a week should be fine. I've tried it a few times and didn't have any trouble. Right now, I want to increase the overall fitness of my body to create a bit more of a cushion before doing it again.

    Also, I don't do naps. I tend to oversleep them and then I become unable to sleep at night.

    I do upper back & core exercise daily. Since I sit in from of a notebook all day, those helps to relieve shoulder & neck pain.
