Making my own routine
Starting next week, I'm going to make up my own weekly routines. I have done p90x for one month now. I like it. I like most of it. I dont' find it near as intense as "making the cut" by Jillian, so I find myself trying to add intensity to it. I dont' do plyometrics, as I have foot arch issues...so I'm sure that would add…

HRM Question or two....
OK so with seeing the threads about HRMs I decided to pull mine out... hadn't used it in forever and had to recalculate everything. I did notice it says to wear it above your heart. I am a heavy chested woman (36DD) and so I've been wearing it under my breasts and under my Enell sports bra. Should I try to wear it above? I…

Trust my HRM or Treadmill???
I just bought a rather inexpensive Heart Rate Monitor. I used it for the first time a few minutes ago. On a usual day, I will go on the treadmill and run until it tells me I burned 500 calories which is usually 60 minutes. However, today I ran for 40 minutes and the HRM said I had already reached 500 calories burned. Does…

I also take the stairs as much…
