Honestly, not a whole lot in the last 3 years.
When I was about 14 to about 20 I was really into lifting heavy weights twice a day, six times a week. I was never really able to accumulate much mass because my metabolism worked so fast. I gained a lot of strength and definition, but the size just wouldn't come. I quit because of the lack of results and got serious into golf after I was finished college and started working at a golf resort. I went down to resistance training with therabands and using and exercise ball to build my core muscles. As strong as I was from lifting weights for the better part of 5 years, doing squats on the ball without any weights isn't any easy task!!
I have found that even those exercises have lost their appeal with me and I really don't do any weight training. I play hockey a few times a week and I have been involved with a few large landscaping projects of mine and a few friends that involved quite a bit of manual labour. I also walk my dog for about 1 hour a day (about 2 1/2 hours on the weekend) at quite a quick pace. Doesn't seem like a whole lot, but I have found that it has at least maintained my level of fitness, if nothing else.
