So this is another one of those ego-massaging threads. Everybody loves to show themselves off! Let me just get the ball rolling.
How often do you exercise/work out? And how exactly?
I am a rock climber so my main form of keeping fit is climbing. For any of those that do climbing, I lead 7b to 8a+ outdoors once a week, unless it's a weekend trip or something to Thailand. If I'm not leading, then I'm mostly indoors solving boulder problems that range from V6 to V8. Other than boulder, I'd go on the campus board or do some training on the hangboard (endurance, ordinary pull ups, deadhangs, finger training in general etc.) I usually go to the climbing gym 2 or 3 times a week.
If I'm not climbing, I'd most likely be running. I can confidently run 15k's but 30k's and above is already pretty hard on me. I used to run every other day for two hours, going for 30-35k's. But I've gotten lazy and now only do half of that (15km) twice a week, depending on my mood.
I go to the gym on days I run as well. I benchpress around 70kg but only do it when I'm with someone I know. If I'm not, I do other things like bicep curls (30kg), leg extensions and hit the rowing machine thingy.
Every twice a week as well I play some futsal with my friends. We rent a court and start messing about till more people come. Sometimes I play badminton, but occasionally only. I do swim, but it's very inconsistent. When I do, I try to do as many laps as possible (Olympic size) but get lazy after twenty minutes or so.
If I really am not doing any of these then I'm at home stuffing myself with junk food on front of the computer playing Blacklight on my exercise ball which I really just a giant bouncy ball.
Alright, my ego is looking pretty stuffed right now. Go ahead, indulge youself.
