SBF2 Reboot Boogaloo...April 8
Good morning! How is everyone? I woke up in a horrible mood, so I decided to log my food. :laugh: I need to try to get some control back here. I also lowered my cal intake.

Talk to Me About Interval Training...
I'm using a Precor AMT trainer in the mornings and since I only have 45-50 minutes for cardio before work I started using the Interval setting to get a better work-out. I am alternating 2 minutes at level 11 with 2 minutes at level 6. But when I compare this to 30 minutes of straight level 8, there is only about 20…

Pre-workout Snack for Morning Cardio
What do you have? I used to get away with water but I started to need some pre-fuel as the workouts got more challenging. I've been going for a tbs of peanut butter because I like to start working out within a half hour of waking up. But I'm wondering what works best for you.

Do you know your recommended BMI and weight?
According to my WiiFit I should be just under 117 pounds. I think I would look skeletal at that weight! I just upped my goal to 129 instead of 125 to see how I look after 7 more pounds. That puts in a normal BMI range. Have you checked your recommended BMI and weight? What do you think about the suggested numbers?
