I do, actually. Though I can't afford the car I want:

Lets see: I work out cause It makes me better at what I do for a living... Now Army Reserves and Volunteer Firefighter.

Mon-Fri I hit the gym at the Station.. Working my way through the Px90 workout.

Sat-Sun once a month I have Drill so I do the whole pushup/situp/run thing
Sat-Sun Once a Month I Grab my Sword and shield, throw on a bunch of metal armour, and join the collective in a game we like to call "Beat the snot out of you roundtable"... in the name of Combative Fun of course..
Sat or Sun Once a Month I go to the range and shoot. If you havent done it, Proper CQB shooting will kick your butt PT wise. Plus its always fun to go shooting.

I do cardio about 5 times a week, dispersed between boxing and running.

Otherwise I focus a lot on upper body exercises using my bodyweight, ie. pushups, pullups and chinups.

I workout to be healthy and look good.

Um. I don't really get the opportunity to exercise. There are quite a few roads in my town that I avoid because of the people there (a lot of muggings and fights occur on streets like that), and my town isn't really that big at all, and I can only go one direction (the other way is the highway, which isn't that safe to walk up).

I rode my bike quite a lot before it got stolen. I haven't been able to get a new one yet. So I just walk my dog for an hour most days, which isn't always a good idea at this time of year. It's cold, wet, and foggy all day.

P.S. I'm getting ready for the Zombie-Apocalypse (no joke)

Too many Romero movies at a young age, huh?

I try to use the treadmill at work at least once a day for 15-20 minutes. I recently joined an aerobics class at a JC. So far I've only attended half a class. That was on the first day... I left early to try to buy blizzcon tickets. The second day of class, a week later, I was hung over so I missed it. This week... *crosses fingers*

I cycle.

30 minute ride twice a day. That's about 16km on the flat ground around here. I generally sit on around 20-30km/h. Enough to generate a sweat (though in summer I don't notice while I'm moving).

That and I walk a lot.
