Personally mine changes every 3 weeks cos that's when I have this "fat determination" process. Then my coach changes my routine.
Generally it consists of 15 minutes of cardio and it's 3 days a week or 4, it's up to me. I dedicate one day to my back and my biceps, 1 day to my legs/abs and 1 day to my chest/triceps etc. I try to do 200 sit ups every time but I wanna start doing more and lately I've added 5 minutes of elliptical when I'm done lifting etc. I love it!
I actually love working out, I used to hate it back in High School but my coach is amazing and she always takes good care of me and I love the routines she gives me.

I grab my weights, go to my couch. Put down my weights, pick up a bag of Cheetos and grab the TV remote.

I preheat my oven and cook the pizza for 10-15 minutes, or until cheese has melted completely and crust is golden brown.

Every other day:
Bicep Curls, Push-ups, Pull-ups, and hanging knee tucks. I’m mostly trying to workout my lower abs and arms. My legs are good to go thanks to four years of swimming

I run at least two miles, four times a week. I usually work out five. The fifth day is usually for stretching.
I have a leg, back, biceps days & chest, abs and triceps days.
When it gets warmed I'll take another workout day away for swimming (because the lap pool is outdoors).
I've always been pretty thin, so I mostly work to stay lean and cut. I don't really want to bulk.
I do push-ups and sit-ups every night that I can remember, if I don't eat too late.
I try to do squats every day, but who has time for a sore ass every morning?

for now I follow an app, Runastic Six Pack
it's a 25 days workout, 4 different types each day
I also walk a few miles 3x a week and I'm on diet since I was 10 y old
lots of water, it helps a lot of stuff, including acne
I'm going back to the gym in some weeks after leaving it for a few months

I have a three-day cycle. Two weights days and a cardio day. (always with a 5-10 cardio warm-up)
Day One - Arms, Shoulders & Chest:
1. Bicep curls 8x3
2. Above-the-head lifts 8x3
3. Tricep curls 8x3
4. Press-ups 20-25x3 (I should do bench press but I find press-ups better)
Day Two - Back and Legs:
1. Squats 20x3
2. Lunges 20 (each leg) x3
3. Deadlifts (pretty much until I can't any more)
Day Three - Cardio:
1. 30-40mins running, biking, rowing or on the cross-trainer
2. A LOT of stretching, yoga positions etc.
After every session I do stomach exercises like crunches, planks, leg raises, balance type things. I usually spend at least 15mins on the mats stretching and things. And yeah - that's pretty much it.
EDIT: I just realized a rest day is usually in between day two and three.

Do you mind me asking where you got this routine from? I don't mean to be rude, but it's terrible.

It's my keeping lean workout, my own apparently-flop work. The only gym I have access to has limited facilities so for a year I'm just focusing on keeping my stamina up. What's so bad about it? Dx

Oh boy... there's a lot wrong, but I'll get to that soon.
As long as the gym has free weights, a bench, squat rack and a good amount of plates of different weights, you should have enough. Machines are great, but a luxury.

- You say you train for stamina, but 8 reps doesn't do that.
- By "Above-the-head lifts" I assume you mean Over Head Press. (Only a technicality, but it's a great movement)
- You're going to need to add more exercises for each body part, because I can tell you now - one exercise per body part won't cut it.
- Press ups alone aren't going to build you a good chest. If you don't like bench pressing, do it with dumbbells instead and lower the rep range.
- Tricep curls? Do you mean Tricep Pushdowns?

3. Deadlifts (pretty much until I can't any more)

- Lower the reps for squats. Four sets of 3-5 reps works great if you're prepared to go heavy.
- I wouldn't do too many reps for lunges. Perhaps 8-12 reps per leg would be better.
- What I've found works best for Deadlifts is to do like 3-5 sets of 1-5 reps. I mad crazy size gains by doing that and working up to heavy weights.
- I would add Stiff Leg Deadlifts and Hack Squats if there's limited equipment.
- Needs to lat exercises (Rows, pulldowns, pullups). Deadlifts primarily train the lower back and traps).
I'd like to add that you should probably split the weight training into three days at a minimum.
YouTube is such an invaluable resource, so make use of it. There are some great fitness channels out there.
Cardio looks good.
