Vibration Plates
I’ve been reading up on the vibration plates (lifepro, fit pulse and others). I’m the past my only experience was using these in therapy following surgeries. I haven’t found many stories from people who have gotten weight loss from using these. My question is simple. Are these legit or is it just the new version of the…

Recommendations for a new bike
I’m looking for a new bike. My old FX2 is way beyond repair. I have some health issues, but my doctors are cool with me riding. I’m not looking for something fast and aggressive but something fun to ride with my family. I’m looking at a Verve or a new FX. There are not a lot of Specialized dealers around here. Any other…

Question about running and dull ache in diaphragm/abs
I have a question related to running, in general, and the effect it has on the body. Before you answer (if you know) it's not runner's gut - what I'm trying to explain. I've mostly never had runner's gut except once or twice, and it's never been like the feeling I'm trying to describe right now. So I think I started my…

Non food rewards after working out?
In order for me to stay motivated to workout I need a reward but don't want it to be food related. Does anyone know of some weekly non food rewards I can use to keep my momentum of exercise up? If so please let me know, the more the better. Thanks!

Should I be changing my exercise workout?
Hi, Wondering if anyone can give me some guidance. As well as running 4/5 times a week I also do a daily dvd workout. This has always been the 30 day shred for me, I like the mix of strength/cardio/abs and that it is shorter and so I can fit it into my daily routine. I've completed this 30 day workout several times, it…

Logging exercise
I am retired and healthy. Apart from normal day to day activities ie housework, etc, I also walk for an hour most days on my treadmill (4/10 incline and pace set at 4.80). And normally manage to record over 10k steps per day. Should I put myself down as being active or lightly active?

FitBod or JeFit- Which one was better for you?
Was looking for a workout planner that had the ability to substitute certain workouts for others. I need this as I have a neck injury that gets inflamed with certain workouts. Fitbod gave me the ability to do that and it has been great so far. It builds the workouts for you and you can replace certain movements for others.…

Recommend me something prevents belly jiggle while jumping
I want to start getting in to jumping rope again, but I would like a top that helps prevent my upper belly area (above my belly button) from moving too much while I do it. So far, the only items I've come across are waist trainers. No, I don't think they will give me some hourglass figure, but they seem like they'd do what…

Steps are gone.
My steps and "earned calories" disappeared. They usually are syncing from my iphone's health app. They were there a minute ago. Then poof. Any way to get them back? I don't eat them back or anything, but I still like them there to keep track of.

Question about wearable step counters.
Is there a step counter that you can wear that adds steps to My Fitness Pal, or do they all just adjust calorie count. My wife bought a Garmin Vivofit 4 and when we connected it to My Fitness Pal, it will only sync up the calories, it doesn't add any steps. When we tried to make it her primary step counter, it kept giving…

Fitbit elliptical step count
I have a Fitbit Charge 4 that I wear all the time. When I do my elliptical, I start the Elliptical activity on my watch, and end it when I am done. I have noticed that my step count after the elliptical is way low. As an example, today I did about 1.25 miles. My elliptical has a 20" stride length, so that should have been…

Weight loss and Endurance cycling
I've signed up to ride the London Revolution in October. Its 156 miles over two days and both days will each be further than I have yet cycled. So I am considering this to be an endurance activity. But I am also cutting calories in an attempt to lose weight mostly because I think the hills will be slightly easier if I'm…

I am 28 years old and needing a hip replacement 🙄. So my goal is to lose weight to see if that will help my hip instead of getting a hip replacement. I rarely eat…

FYI for iFIT users
I've got my iFIT pointed to my MFP and my MFP pointed to my Garmin. All my workouts synced until a few days ago. iFIT support just told me the sync with 3rd party apps is currently down. They're working on it but have no ETA. They said workouts should sync retroactively once it's back up.

Garmin, Strong, Jefit, GymRun, etc?
I just got a Garmin Venu 2 Plus. I loaded my workouts in and I'm REALLY enjoying the gym experience! (super simple. hit the button to start. hit the button to stop. adjust reps/weight if needed until my watch tells me i'm done resting. repeat.) I'm worried about it's ability to track gains though. The reporting in Garmin…
