Eating my work out calories.
There is simply no way I can eat more calories! I just am not hungry. I work out at the start at the day, I also calculate the amount of calories that I walk throughout the day at the end of the day. Today i just did 75 mins of hot yoga from 7-830. Where do i have room to eat more food/calories. I know I need to eat these…

need help with heart rate trouble shooting!
Hi! I just bought the Polar F4, and this is my 2nd day with it. Yestarday, it went fine (although to my dismay I was only burning 537 calories on my elliptical for an hour rather than the 650 mfp was calculating, but I digress....) I was using it today, and it would be going along fine, and then it would signal my heart…

Hot Yoga
Tonight I am trying out hot yoga. I am excited, I am nervous. I really hope I like it and I also hope that I don't like it LOL. The only reason I say this is that its pretty costly to do hot yoga *wanwan*. But I am excited non the less. Can anyone share their hot yoga experiences with me. it is 101 degrees yoga, as opposed…

I enjoy exercise?! Miracle! :D
Before I started on here and my weight loss regime, the thought of exercise wasn't at all appealing to me!! But now I actually look forward to it everyday and enjoy doing it! I am only doing a fitness DVD (Rosemary Conley) at home at the minute though as I don't work so can't afford the gym or classes, but I can't believe…

Yoga and Wrist Pain
Hey Ya'll. I love doing yoga and lifting weights but lately the pain in my wrist has become more and more insistent and now my left one is starting to ache as well. And if you've noticed, a lot of yoga work is done holding yourself up on your hands (I can only hold a plank for 20secs before they start screaming)! I want to…

kickboxing DVDs?
I'm really into martial arts-type workouts- I was thinking about trying Cathe Friedrich's MMA Fusion because I can't afford to take any classes. When I get the money though, I'm going to look at the MMA gym near my home (it's about ten minutes away). Does anyone have any suggestions?

Are exercise totals reflected in food totals?
Are your food totals changed by the exercising that you do. Of course I know that if you workout, you can eat more - if you want. I want to keep my exercising totals away from my food chart. If it is altering it in any way, I'll just record it in the section for notes.

I am so mad I could spit a cookie.
I went to the local sporting goods store yesterday to get a heart rate moniter. I know nothing about these things and asked the sales guy to help me. I told him that I specifically want one to tell calories burned. He sold me a polar f3. IT DOES NOT SHOW CALORIES BURNED. UG! Now I am frustrated because the thing looks so…

heart rate importance?
So, I don't have work out equipment at my house and didn't feel like doing that Tony Horton DVD I have. So, I found a book (big fat giant enormous dictionary that's about 8" thick) and stepped up and down on it for an hour while watching a movie. Funny -- "stepping up and down on a book" isn't in the exercise list…

When to exercise around eating
Is there a general rule of thumb of when to exercise or not in relationship to when you eat a meal. It seems like my chances to exercise always seem to be either right after breakfast or lunch when my two little ones are happy or asleep for a little while. Is that okay to exercise on a full stomach or eat a meal right…

Abdominal Plank
I didnt see abdominal plank in the exercise databse so I added it to the strength exercises. While you can do sets, there really aren't any reps. I usually time like 1 minute sets. But there is no way to set a time per set.

HRM Lose HR? Constantly having to re-wet the chest strap? I
My HRM was constantly losing it's signal due to it drying and me having to re-wet. I had a bright idea one day and never have to re-wet or worry about losing the signal anymore. Next time you strap up, instead of wetting with water, use some KY Jelly or other water based lubricant. Hospitals and doctors use use water based…
