Are You Afraid Of The Gym?
Silly question, right? Let me give you a little back story. I have never set foot in a gym before in my life. In highschool, I played soccer, and we ran laps around the football field or the highschool gym, that was our cardio. So for a long time I knew nothing else (by the way, I'm 23). So I went for walks, did the at…

Gruve
Does anyone own one of these new devices? I have read some reviews, and it sounds rather cool, especially the feature that vibrates and lets you know when you've been sedintary for too long, reminding you to get up and move.

Can you recommend a good exercise monitor?
I'm not sure how accurate the "calories burned" from exercise is on this site. I've been logging "aerobics - general" when I do my Jillian Michaels workouts, but the amount of calories it says I burn seem kind of high. To be sure, I wanted to get one of those exercise monitors that tell you your heart rate, calories…

Running/Walking Shoes
Do you have a favorite brand? Model? How is your gait (underpronate, overpronate, or neutral)? I'm a big fan of Asics personally. GEL-2140s right now...but taking a serious look at the 1150. I overpronate a bit and need the cushioning and support through the arch.
