Happy weekend to all! Hope you have a relaxing but exercise filled weekend ahead of you! Have to get ready to go to my 3 year olds first basketball game. How crazy is that!

cardio verses strength training
I have a personal trainer & I see him 2-3 days a week and on the days I don't see him I do cardio. When I record my cardio on here it adds a bunch of calories to my daily but on the days I see the personal trainer I record it under strength training & the calories stay the same. Why is that?

What Time Do You Workout?
I used to be a morning person. Now that I'm a single parent, things are changing. I find it easier to get things done after the children have gone to bed in the evening. I used to exercise at 4:30 am. Now, getting to bed at 2-3 am, I have no plans to be lucid anywhere near 4. I, therefore, workout late at night now. I'm…

Tae Bo Lovers?
I mention it often in my posts, but let me just clarify that I LOVE TAE BO!!! It just fits my personality. I was turned on to it after a not so pretty nursing school ordeal. It was much safer for me to punch air than people, so I fell right into it!!! I started aerobics at the age of 10 with a Kathy Smith CASSETTE!!! After…

doing ab crunches
I am totally new to all this calorie burning, dieting and excercising. My question is, last night I purchased an ab roller, I believe it would be for crunches. In the data base it asks for per set per something whatever I don't understand it. Say I do 20 crunches how do I put that in the data base? Thanks a bunch!!

Backpacking?
I've packing a 60lb bag 4miles about every other day. I was wondering if this is a good excercise or not. I really need to work on some cardio, I know I'll probably get some strength training out of it but is it helping my cardio? I usually try to jog about a fourth of the way in intervals. Any advice would be appreciated.

Not meeting the daily goal
If I am off by say 100 in reaching my daily goal in burning calories does that put the chances of loosing weight off? I still don't get with burning the calories I earn more to burn? I haven't took advantage of that because I think that would defeat the purpose and make me maintain or gain weight. Please if anyone has a…

Gliding Your Way to Fitness on Elliptical Machines
If you're looking for some variety in your cardio workouts, don't pass up the opportunity to try your gym or home elliptical machines.
