The total core
I just got this thing called the total core. It's like an ab rocket with wheels. I actually bought cause it has lime green wheels. I'm out of control buying fitness crap, I need an intervention. Anyway, it was only $1 to try it for ten days, and they pay return shipping, if I don't want to keep it. I just used it for like…

Stronger Better Faster Nov 7
Good morning! How are you all doing today? I'm worse and yet cheered up. Alex woke up in a great mood singing and making noises and then the screaming and hips attachment started. I still have a sore throat. :grumble: But the good news is that I think I have found the key to my weight loss! No sweets! I joined a no sweets…

Are HRMs worth it?
I'm in a class called Turbo Kick this semester that's been good for helping me get into shape, but lately I feel like my progress has stalled. I was looking at another post about HRMs and I wanted to ask: Are they worth it? I don't have a ton of extra money (college student + today's economy = bad things) but I consider my…

Weight Loss Commercials
Are you tired of the weight loss commercials you see on TV with the actors/actresses? They are already bone thin or already muscular? I wish I had the money to put on a commercial about the weight loss products and the machines that make up thin, but I want to start with 3 sizes, both men, women and yes teens. Do a 3 month…

SBF Fitness Challenge, Nov 6
Hope everyone is taking care of themselves. Thanksgiving is three weeks away! That can't be right. It's not even cold yet. I have a cousin visiting from Michigan and all she talked about yesterday was that it was too hot to put up Christmas decorations (she's doing my mom's house, she's an interior designer). Yesterday I…

How and how much
I'd like to lose at least 1/2 of my goal (11 pounds) by Christmas. Is this possible? How? What should I be doing to make this goal possible. I know I need to eat right, but is there anything else I should know. Secret exercises or anything haha? Fill me in pretty please :tongue:

HRM help!
I shredded (30 day shred with Jillian) with Level 1 Monday & did Level 2 this morning. Holy cow these are intense! My problem is though that I bought yet another calorie counter (my last 1 didn't have a heart rate monitor on it) & it says I've only burned like 50 calories after the shred. Could that be right? Other posts…

Not losing inches!
It is so frustrating! I am closing in on the twenty pound mark and haven't seen any dramatic changes in my body yet. My face looks thinner and my legs are more toned, but my stomach really isn't shrinking! I checked all my measurements from a year ago and nothing else has shrunk, either. My grand total was a 1/2 inch,…

torn miniscus?
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has had a torn miniscus in the past? As I have lost the weight, I have become a jogger/runner, but unfortunately about a month and a half ago my knee started giving out while at the gym, and then the excruciating pain started. I took it easy for 2 weeks, torture, but when the pain didn't…

Exercise morning or night???
Okay I have a question, is it better work out first thing in the morning even though I would have to get my butt up at 4am so that i could work out for an hour or should I wait till the evening. I have been back and forth on this one. I got up at 4am this morning and did 30 mins on the bike and then 20 mins on the treadmil…

HRM accuracy?
Hi everyone! Hopefully someone can help me out, I'm not really sure how to search the internet for an answer. My question has to do with calorie burn as calculated by my HRM. My heartrate tends to get extremely high when I work out, like in the 185-195 range. I'm otherwise perfectly healthly, my weight is in the normal…

SBF Fitness Challenge, Nov 5
So I went to the friend's house with the Wii, but they were unwilling to turn off the election coverage long enough to let me try the fit. Oh well, some other time. After reading a political post, I'm ready to go work out though. To me, it's not so much what you believe, but how you espouse what you believe. Anyway,…

Has Anybody Tried This Thing?
I was channel surfing this morning while wait for the the house to wake up and I came across this infomercial. It was for "Shapely Secrets" by Greer Childers. She was pushing her system that aparently gets you to loose "up to 1 dress size, 2 inches and 10 pounds in 14 days" through motionless excercise. :noway: How is…

What's the best way
Ok, I start working out tomorrow morning at 6:45. I obviously want to work out everything, but my main focus is my stomach. What is the best way to get rid of my tummy. The gym has a lot of machines, and I just don't know which would benefit me the most for my stomach :)

Tried something new for exercise
It's yucky raining out again today, so again no dog walking and no cycling. And, I just didn't feel like going to the gym. So, I tried jumping rope again then hurt my Achilles tendon :cry: OUCH! Anyway, was moping around when I spied my unused stationary recumbent bike sitting there as a silent accusation. So, I had an…
