You're a Groupie!
You are likely to have lots of friends and a busy social calendar to prove it — group fitness is likely to be made for you. Good times with a walking group or the rhythm of dance classes energize you and give opportunity for self-expression. You're likely to be competitive at heart and enjoy keeping up with the crowd (or watching them keep up with you!). In a public environment, you're likely to push yourself harder and remain dedicated to your workout. You're also inspired by walking with your co-workers on your lunch break or playing softball in the company league. Exercise for you is likely as much a workout as it is a social experience. You should consider choosing activities that fulfill your emotional need to be around others and network at the same time: walking with a group, kickboxing, doubles tennis, a golf league or a team sport such as basketball or soccer.

Being at one with nature isn't just an ideal, it's likely to be your reality. All your favorite activities are likely to take place in the fresh air, and you probably don't even think about getting a cardio benefit as you meander along wooded walking trails. For you, exercising outdoors is likely to be a soulful stimulus. You are likely to enjoy yard work and gardening, taking long walks and bird watching. There's likely no need for you to join a gym — as long as you have a park nearby and don't shy away from rainy-day workouts. You should consider a variety of activities like walking, gardening, mountain biking, canoeing and hiking, but be sure not to get so caught up in the beauty surrounding you that you forget to challenge yourself.
So, I'm still going to Jazzercise...

I found it.
You Like to Go Solo!
You're likely to be a self-starter, enjoy autonomy and are probably your own boss (or will someday soon). A fitness consultant barking orders at you is a big turnoff and will likely be the end of your workout regimen. All the inspiration you need is likely to be on the inside. You should consider getting a fitness journal and a heart monitor and making a fitness goal — whether it's improving your walking time or training for a 5K run. We would recommend you to consult a fitness professional to make sure you're on the right track and aren't pushing yourself too hard; however, it appears you will likely want to monitor your own progress and chart your own results. The best activities for you appear to be solitary pursuits such as walking, strength training, swimming, tai chi, martial arts, biking and running.
Anyone know a fitness professional I could consult?

Well, it lost its credibility with me. It says I'm a groupie, and I am SO an outdoor exerciser.
