Lats R’ Us
OK, some of y'all on another thread have been asking for a lats thread. My gym frowns (doesn’t allow) photo taking in the gym, so my trainer took these real fast when no one was looking, except for a couple of eye rollers. She didn’t want a pile-on from the rest of staff. (Hospital-affiliated gym, so tons of staff.) This…

What Was Your Work Out Today?
I am often going on to Instagram to get work out ideas, as I follow a few trainers who post videos. I work out 5-6 days a week and like to mix it up & try new things.

A new 3 Day Push, pull and leg routine for 63 year old man

Exercise calories burned not getting credit in my "Calories Remaining" for the day
My exercise calories burned is not calculating in the calories remaining section. Mine shows Goal 1,200 - Food 1,029 + Exercise "0" = remaining 171. I'm linked to my Fitbit which shows 1,560 calories burned (10,000+ steps) so that should have some impact on the Exercise "0" number. Just started doing this. How do I fix it?

Otf
When you work out at orange theory do you include you calories you burned into your daily diet. Because yesterday as I was about to go to bed I had 1000 calories to eat. I quickly ate. Protein bar but left the 800 calories untouched. If you don’t include them, how do you take them Out of your total?

Beachbody DVD to TV help?
Hi. I have a lot of DVDs (Piyo, Yoga burn, step etc). I used to play them on the TV via the dvd slot. New TV doesn't have a DVD slot. I thought I could just play them via the USB port that is in the back of TVs but I can't seem to get that to work, either. They must all be saved in a different format (?). I don't know.…
