Stronger, Better, Faster, final week...Nov 20th
The last push until Thanksgiving. Though if you are under the weather, don't push too hard.:flowerforyou: CP - I'm traveling by Amtrak. The distinction is important. As much as I love train travel, Amtrak is notoriously late, so it's in a category all to itself. Although, my last trip to Montreal, Amtrak was on time and…

Working out = Happiness
I feel like I am on top of the world. Literally! I love working out!! I have been doing it 7 days a week for the last 3 weeks and it has kept me in a good mood 90% of my day.

best time to jump on
I've been getting on the scale 1st thing in the morning. Crawl out of bed, go potty, undress and jump on. I've been curious and gotten on before after working out and it showed a gain. Is that normal, or am I maybe drinking too much water during my workout?

Question about crunches and cardio
I usually do about 30 minutes to an hour of cardio on my Gazelle, and I work really hard and sweat, but I feel like it isn't enough. When I used to use my friends elliptical I always seemed like I was a lot more tired after my workout. Does anyone else do this much cardio and feel like you should do more? Or is this…

disabled exercise
Great site! Glad I found it.... seems like a supportive group too!!! OK, so I don't FEEL disabled, and I think technically I'm not - but I have to face the fact that I probably need to approach activity/fitness like I am. So that's where I need some help: I'm male, and I have a condition with the "plumbing" that basically…

My Exercise Program

But after I was finished I wondered if I am actually doing the right thing or if I should do more or different... I had an induction at the gym by one of…

So I hate running!
This morning was the first day of training for a 5k. Yes thats not much, but I have never ran before. I went with my brother Riel, and brother in-law David. I know my brother can out run me in a second! David on the other hand is "bigger" than I and hardly exercises, if at all. I figured I would at least do better than…

Exercicing
Hey I recently joined My Fitness Pal, I think it a great tool and it's helping me out with the food part of my weight loss journey but I know I need to incorporate exercise into my life if I want to lose weight and get healthy.

Oh My Thighs!!!
I went jean shopping during my lunch break, and I was resigned to the fact that I would be buying a pair of size 12 jeans. While I would love to wait so I could buy a smaller pair, I need new jeans! So I grabbed a couple of pairs of dark wash jeans (for the slimming effect, ya know?) and headed into the dressing room...the…

Another HRM question
At the fitness center with no one else around (it's small and in my apartment building) wearing my Polar F4 HRM and on a treadmill that says "polar compatible" for heart rate reading.

A Fascinating and Alarming Study....
My exercise science teacher once said, "One day you will fall off an educational cliff. Everything you think you know will be proven wrong, and you'll have to start from the beginning again."
