I tend to use the elliptical and stairmill, in addition to free weights and weight machines when I'm in the gym. Outside of the gym, I like to jump rope, do pilates, bodyweight exercises, and use the Nike Training Club iPhone app. I've been off the pole for a little over a year, and just started back last week. Doing the exercises I've listed has been helping me to rebuild my endurance.
Since I have 6 dogs, I do a lot of dog walking, haha. Outside that I do yoga, barre, kettlebells DVDs. I also recently got a whole body vibration machine. Supposedly a ten minute workout on it equals an hour. I'm not so sure about that, but I love using it. I feel really good afterwards.

I take floor acrobatics class, aerial silks class, trapeze class and flexibility class. I have 2 dogs and, like Angel1201, I do dog walking ;) Apart from that, I don't have more time...
I do my Felix Cane Flexibility DVD, run on the elliptical at the gym,or follow a random workout video (i.e. balance ball stuff, pilates, yoga). Something else I've done is to stay on the pole, but use it differently by working on grounded moves, dance moves, flexibility, and floorwork. You can mimick moves like the chopper from the floor, so that your only working abs and not your arms, so sometimes I do that.
Zumba and daily callestinics sets (2-3x a day for about 10 mins each set) at home--push ups, sit ups, streching, balance ball & pull ups. I plan on getting back into running as well next week, I stopped for awhile.
