We don't swim, well I had an accident a year ago where i broke my pelvis and some ribs and I did plenty of water PT and water aerobics but that was different.
I do 30-45 minutes of cardio five X a week, varied three of those days I do pretty high intensity stair climber, I also do sprints and walk on the incline, some days I run a bit, some days I crank out the elliptical. Four times a week work out like a girl, meaning I do some crossfit type stuff, lots of stretching, high rep light weights, example dumbbell curls on the bosu ball I don't want to get big muscles I want a strong core and flexibility and lean.
My wife does work out classes, an hour three times a week then some tapes.
The real key though is eating right, we eat a fairly low carb diet, I also do at least one mini fast a week, the 16-17 hour fasts. This works really well in my opinion.
