Weight lifting, heavy bag work, Burpees, burpees, more burpees, and the stationary bike when getting outside is difficult. In the summer, this counts :

In the summer I use one of these, and it is traditionally done barefoot.
As much as I like that, my neighbors think that I'm strange enough. However, we can start a barefoot lawn mowing group.
Ahh a fellow wood burner. I was going to mention that too... actually I'm up on the farm this weekend and will spend this afternoon and tomorrow with a chainsaw in the woods. In the last couple years I've lost more weight from logging in the winter/spring then anything else.Well lately I have been splitting a lot of firewood. Twice warm.

Like happysongbird I count gardening and stuff like that... most of my off days I am going to bed sore worn out and exhausted, so that's good enough for me. I'm always carrying around heavy things, digging with a shovel, swinging a hammer, etc.
I used to bike on opposite days but haven't done that since summer. Lately I have got out on the cross country skis though but since a week ago the snow is gone.
Walk the dog , drink beer!)Just curious... sorry if this has been asked recently, I haven't been around for awhile!
I am currently practicing Bikram yoga as my cross-training. Actually, I was doing only Bikram and no running for a few months after I got burned out after my Half-Marathon last year. I am hoping it will complement my running as I begin to build miles again. It's kind of an odd turn for me as I used to be one of those "never-stretchers". I definitely think Bikram will help out with hip and foot strengthening.
So... what are you doing for cross-training?
