Does anyone know how many calories a 30 minute workout at curves burns? I can't seem to figure it out, and I can't afford on of those calorie counter things. Thanks!

Anyone done Jillian's frontside/backside DVD's??
Hello! I was wondering if anyone out there has done Jillian Micahael's Frontside/Backside workout videos?? I just ordered them and wanted to know what all of you thought. I know her "30-day Shred" is popular right now, but I don't feel like I am advanced enough to try that yet. So, I decided to go with one of her…

Dreadmill vs. Outdoors
Which do you prefer? I ran on the dreadmill for 35 minutes today and wanted to cry. I was all sweaty and gross and exhausted! I can run outside for an hour and not be tired. WEIRD! I also find that when I run outside, I have random thoughts and think about lots of different things. I also come up with some of my best ideas…

I can't believe the difference!
My bf got me my polar hrm for Christmas and I've used it yesterday and today. Yesterday I walked on the treadmill for an hour-200 calorie burn difference-but not in a good way. My hrm said I burned 300 some and the treadmill said I burned 5 hundred some... Today I got on my stationary bike, there was only a few calories…

Help! I'm New!!!
Hello! I just joined today and I have a question. I didn't really know where to post this, so I decided here. I'm trying to add exercises to my exercise tab on my page, but it's not quite doing what I thought it would. Can you add a list of exercises that you do? Or does it just have to be the ones for that day? Sorry if…

Biggest Loser Videos

MFP Runner's Club 12/27
OK, where is everybody? Are you snowed in or just taking a Christmas break? :wink: Ran 15 miles today, which was particularly hard because I went to the gym yesterday and did squats and lunges and I am really feeling it today.

Got a Garmin Forerunner 305!
I'm soooo excited about my new toy. I can't wait for all this snow and ice to thaw so I can use it. I took it to the gym with me though today and used it during a class. The hrm part worked but it wouldn't tell my cals burned. I'm so frustrated, I feel so old because I can't figure this thing out! I've been studying and…

New Years Resalution Gym Question
So I managed to lose some weight, but I'm still all squishy! I lost the majority of my weight by just diet and walking around more. So I was thinking with new years I would start going to the fitness center at school ( membership is free with tuition).I'm kinda scared though...all those machines and the people are mostly…

POLL: Daily Calories Burned with HRM?
I got a Polar HRM for Christmas! So awesome!! My 24-hour calorie expenditure was 4000. I was shocked! Seemed pretty high to me, and was just a normal, lazy, hanging out Christmas day! I can't even imagine when it is a normal day of chasing after four kids, mounds of laundry, housework, errands, etc! So anyways, I just was…

Got a Polar F4 for christmas!
Ok, I have been wanting a Polar F6 HRM for a long time now. But my oldest son bought me the Polar F4:happy: Im not real sure what the differences are between the two...but the F4 seems (according to the booklet) to do what I want an HRM for anyway. So does anyone know what the difference between the F4 and the F6 is? Has…

SBF Challenge...Dec 27th
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I had a decent amount of exercise both the 24th and 25th - though the battery died in my pedometer :grumble: - so I could only measure the 25th by time. Yesterday, was only a 30 minute walk - so I guess I took a day off. Husband and I have a weekend pass to a gym that we have to use…

Ab workouts
Achieving a toned, sexy tummy might seem like a pipe dream this time of year. Baggy sweaters abound, egg nog is served and Frosty the Snowman doesn't offer much in the way of flat-belly inspiration. But getting a sleek, sexy stomach is easier than you think. Spend just five minutes a day on toning your abs and you'll get…

calorie question
When you do strength training and log it in, it doesn't show how many calories burned. I don't have a HRM and was wondering how do you find out how many calories you burn for different types of strength training? If anyone could help me that would be great! Thanks ahead of time!

MFP Runner's Club 12/25
Merry Christmas everybody!! The kids were up early today (what a surprise:laugh: ), but after a quick breakfast and the present frenzy, they were preoccupied with the Lego and the video games, so I had time for a 6 mile run plus an upper body / ab work-out when I got home. Won't feel nearly so bad about that honey-glazed…

Reducing body fat percentage--for you fitness-savvy types
So, I had an analysis done. I'm almost at my goal weight, but the person doing the analysis told me to get my body fat percentage down. She recommended focusing on strength training. However, Phoenixflame is a broke-*kitten* college student and can't afford actual personal training. Can some of you fit-savvy types…

Well I have been doing amazingly well here. Sunday night my husband and I went to see his brother and sister in law's new house. It had snowed all day. To make a long story short as I walked through their front door onto their marble floor my feet flew out from under me. I stated crying I thought we were going to have to…

SBF December 24th. . .
Hi everyone, Today I'm dragging my body to bikram, as my everything hurts right now (darn gray weather and stress. . .) Then, I'm taking three days of "technology holiday" where I won't be checking in. (I'm becoming obsessive about checking work-related emails, so it feels like the right thing to do.) I'm turning off my…

Zumba
I took a Zumba class at a health club I had free membership to for 3 weeks (that was great, but I can't afford that in my real life!). I LOVED it! Zumba is a cross between latin/salsa/mamba, jazz, and belly-dancing. It's very high energy and made me sweat!!!! :happy: Does anyone participate regularly in Zumba? Are there…
