30 day shred ?
How many exercises are there? Is there something different for every day of the week or just 3 programs? I need variety to keep me doing something - even at 20 mins a day! I can't quite tell from any of the reviews what exactly each level consists of as far as # of programs.

Banish Fat Boost Metabolism help?
I think I've made a post about BFBM before...but I'm really curious about it. I've done it a few times before and it kicks my butt. I feel like it's a great workout and it should show great results(if you stick to it). My goal now is to try to do it consistently and see the results I think it should give me. But I don't…

Don't trust those machine read outs!
I just did a 10 minute experiment, I wore my HRM and also set my stationary bike to record calories burnt. My HRM said 50 the bike said 148. OMG! No wonder I wasn't loosing weight when I was doing a lot of work on the bike and eating my calories back. I dread to think how many calories I've eaten in the past beacuse I'd…

SBF 2, Reboot Boogaloo, Thanksgiving week

My 2 cents MM: if you just think "oh, I don't eat wheat", rather than "I only get to eat wheat on special occasions",…

Crystal Light
So, I drink nothing but water all the time. Soda no longer has any appeal to me. Sometimes though, water becomes almost impossible to drink, and thats when I turn to Crystal Light.

I couldn't stand to exercise at the gym if I didn't have my IPod. I have a playlist of songs that gets me motivated and moving. Some are on the playlist for their lyrics and some for the beat. The same songs can get boring so I thought I would start this thread so we could exchange ideas and maybe pick up some new songs.…

Whose leg is that?
So I've always had pretty large legs and gain muscle relatively quickly on them. Of late with my riding, running and EA Active 2 I've been putting my legs into overdrive. I woke up the other evening (I work nights you see) and hit my hand against something massive and pretty hard. I look down with delight to notice that…

Nike+ GPS iPhone App
Has anybody tried this? I just bought it for $1.99, but it was AFTER I got back from my run. :ohwell: I read Engadget's review and it sounds like it will be really useful. I've been toying with the idea of getting the foot pod for my Polar FT60, but not really wanting to spend the money. I've got a 10k coming up in a…

I have been working out really hard all week and was going to take the day just to stretch and relax, take the family to do some window shopping. Well I had a 385 calorie breakfast and went out to Qdoba for lunch... I had a 880 calorie burrito with waaaay too much sodium. When I got home to calculate the calories, I gave…

If you don't have Nike+ check into it... I LOVE it. I use the Nike+ GPS on my iPhone and it tracks the routes I take.

I can also look up routes then go run those to try and beat whoever has the current fastest…

I run around 5-6 miles every time I go for a run and hesitate on going past that due to some knee problems (left one specifically).

Got Shoes?
I hate shoes. I hate them. If I am in a place where I don't have to wear shoes, then I don't. I walk outside barefoot, and most times I'm at work barefoot (with socks). I see people who walk/jog barefoot with those footies things and say that we were meant to be barefoot and all that, but I'll put my Nikes on for that. BUT…

Categorize This!
I did "The Biggest Looser Cardo Max" DVD level 1. I have a couple more new video's like this and I want to do them and put them in MFP. So would that best fit into turbo jam kick boxing, calestenics high impact, or aerobics? It had small weights and high cardio. It was a heavy workout for me! What would you put it down as?

Running in subzero temps
Okay. Y'all are gonna think I'm crazy to do this, but I have been training too hard not to run this race. I just saw the forecast for Thursday, which is my very first 5K. The windchill is supposed to be -25 degrees Fehrenheit and for those outside the United States, that's -32 degrees Celsius. Truth is, I might be a bit…
