i go to the gym 3-4 times a week. when i first go in i usually run 1-1.7 miles on the treadmile at about 9 mph. once i've done that i do the weights. one day i do back shoulders and biceps and the next day i do calfs stomach and triceps.
the only weights i can remember that i lift is -
benchpress - 40kg = 10, 50 kg =10, 60 kg =10.
dumbell press - 9kg = 10, 16kg = 10, 18kg = 8, 21kg = 8

I goto the gym 5 times a week. My lunch break at work is my gym time. So for around 45 - 55 minutes a day i do...
monday
Biceps, Triceps
This can range from whatever i feel like on the day as in techque. I'm always doing 3 sets of 10. with a heavy weight first, then i step it down for the next two sets. But this may change to 2 sets with the heavier weight. Or i could do 4 - 5 sets with a smaller weight. It really depends on my mood. But i always make sure i'm making progress. Not getting to comfortable level.
tuesday
Cardio, Leg weights
10 minute jog/run
10 minute stepper thing
(usally by this point i'm sweating like a homo)
then all the different types of leg weight machines i can get my hands on.
wednesday
Chest, Back
incline, decline and flat on the bench press. Start with a light weight this time and go up the weights. 3 sets of 10 for each of those.
back is 3 sets of 10 with the weight going up each time. Thats on that "back" machine  and that bar pull down thing. i dunno the names
thursday
Cardio, Leg weights
same as tuesday.
friday
Shoulders
Once again heaviest weight first or depending on my mood i may do lighter wieght first, then build up. 3 sets of 10. Thats standard issue on the bench.
cable cross, bring free weights 90o from my sides and the same thing forward.
Every 3 weeks or so i up the weights. and on a blue moon (like today) i'll go for a long session (2 hours'ish) and do what i can but keeping it consistant

I just do CV stuff. Can't do many wieghts due to my collar bone not being attached to my shoulder which isn't a very nice thing.

I run around like an idiot at work all day. Carry big bags of dog food about and dance around 2 or 3 nights a week for about 6 hours! And all of its free... Haha.

I basically cycle through 100 reps of sit ups, push ups, chin ups and pull ups 
Edit: Which breaks down to something like 25x4. As long as I do 100 in total I don't really worry too much

I bike to work whenever I am due in, its 4 mile round trip. I'm sometimes on delivery at work so lifting heavy stuff will help with upper body slowly whereas the biking will do my lower body. Gettin paid to work out is best  I think when I was going to the gym I was pushing to do 180 on the leg press, wouldnt mind seeng how the biking has changed that...

Yes thats what i have decided to do, i wasnt seeing any gains with the weight i was at, was just feeling sore alot. I couldnt put weight on when i was going to the gym, so i stopped, and put some weight on. I plan to hit it hardcore now until holiday
