SBF2: Reboot Boogaloo - Earth Day 4/22
Good morning, pebbles! It looks to be a rainy one here again. Minimal success with leaving food yesterday - I managed to eat just half a Clif bar before yoga, and then not eat the rest of it until an hour after dinner. And it was wrapped up and sitting on the table mocking me that whole time! :tongue: I got my pushups in…

Most accurate way to track calories burned?
The display on my elliptical burned out, so I have no real way to track my calories burned while working out on it (not that I thought it was all that accurate in the first place). Is a heart rate monitor the best way to see how many calories burned while excersizing?

Females only question....
This is an embarrassing question, but I have to ask. I had a baby last July and since then whenever I jump or run or anything like that I have leakage. I cannot do jumping jacks AT ALL and sometimes when I run on the treadmill I have to stop before I would normally because if I don't I will pee myself. I can now easily run…

Speedometer for your Stroller
http://www.strollometer.com/welcometostrollo.html Disclaimer: I have no idea about this device. Ran across the website, never knew such a thing existed before.

Exercise Notes
Do you make notes under "Exercise Notes" on your exercise diary. I didn't my first week... but I've tried to write a little in there since. I'm glad for it too.

I need some cardio help!
Hi everyone! I'm running out of cardio options. Actually I only have one as its too hot out now for bike riding, and the gym is too expensive. My only cardio video choice at the moment is the Walk At Home series with Leslie Samsone which keeps my heart rate up for the usual 40-55 mins which I do it. Are there any other…

Polar F6
I just bought one and absolutely love it! I went for a 2 1/2 hr walk and burned 861 calories!! It will be nice to know what I am actually burning (the numbers on MFP aren't accurate) and how much harder/longer I need to work to reach my desired calorie loss.

Fitness magazines?
I'm trying to find a good magazine that has exercise tips in it and not a lot of junk. Does such a thing exist? I bought Oxygen this morning and most of it is ads for things that truly fit, healthy people would never buy!:huh: Help! Please?:happy: I'm mostly interested in strength training.

When you wear your .........
HRM do you calculate the calories burned for your entire workout session i.e. cardio and weight training and/or classes? Or do you use it just to track your cardio calories burned? Just curious... Thanks, Brandi
