Not a particular routine for me, but something every day or I don't feel good. Loved Jazzercise, like yoga, sometimes walk to work. Ran in the early morning when I had no time or money. Always something. So I guess I'd say the general habit is what works. Right now I lift 2-3x a week and yoga 3-4x a week and walk 5k 2-5x a week.

What I find motivating are athletic goals. Lifting more, running faster or farther, standing on my hands in yoga, or back when I did dance getting the control over the body, that feeling of being one with the music and knowing you can express any movement at all. It's not possible but as a goal, getting close as you can.
