Freestyle dancing for exercise at age 64
As a youth, I literally lived to dance and I danced, sang, and listened to music almost continuously. So, it surprised no one when I grew up to become a pianist/composer in later life. Anyway, I quit dancing in my mid 30's due to the detrimental effects of psychiatric medications and didn't dance for 30 years until…

Exercise membership companies adding GLP1s (Ozempic, Wegovy, etc) into their plans/memberships?
Hi fitness pals, I've been hearing a bunch about membership exercise-focused companies (ex. Weight Watchers) introducing GLP1 Receptor Agonist drugs (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, etc) into their routines and pairing them with memberships and things like that. Has anyone heard of/seen/experienced this?

Calorie Help
I’m 25, 5”2, and currently weigh 132.2 lbs. I’m wanting to get down to 115. For a couple months, I was easily eating close to 2500-3000 a day due to breastfeeding and just starting to workout again after a 4 year hiatus lol.

Good Afternoon, When Utilizing the MFP App and at the top for Calories remaining; if the goal is 1800 - 1800 in consumed food + 750 in exercise = 750 remaining, the question is does this mean I am currently in a calorie deficit?

I don’t have the money to afford a coach and I don’t feel confident enough to create my own program because I’m way too nit picky.

Heart rate monitor for overweight folks?
Hi there! I’m trying to choose a HRM, and my instinct is that I’d find an arm band more comfortable, but it seems like chest monitors are more accurate. My hesitancy with a chest monitor is that I have lots of back fat and belly fat, and I’m worried it would shift around/not fit on me. I’m female and wear a sports bra, and…

Activity level
I have been on FP for years on and off. I used to say lightly active to have less calories in the bank but then I would add up the calories burned while exercising. Now I’ve read a lot about macro nutrients. I play tennis pretty much everyday singles or doubles for 90 min and then I’m getting back i to strength training at…

What name does the MyFitnessPal app use for "power snatches"?
Hi all, so I'm using the MyFitnessPal app to build a workout routine. When I go to add an exercise and enter "power snatch", I get no results. I thought this was a super standard exercise! Maybe I'm using the wrong term? I see "power clean" and "snatch" and "hang snatch" but no "power snatch". For an easy visual / video of…

Weed Wacking?
Is that considered gardening, general? or would it be mowing lawn, general? My arm is about to fall off from holding the weed wacker for over an hour, so not sure if it should be considered gardening. I've never felt pain like this from gardening. However, when I push the mower up the hill I do feel it in my arms. So not…

Vixen or MoveMa
Has anyone heard of Brittany Ogus’s MoveMa programming? Or her husband’s Vixen programming? From what I’ve seen, I do like that Brittany adds in some functional movements, but I’m also trying to slow start training for a bikini bodybuilding competition so I feel like Matt Ogus’s programming might be better? Any thoughts…

Twitchy muscles?
I noticed the last few days that my bicep is twitching randomly. I thought it was dehydration, but I have been focusing on more water including electrolytes and it’s still happening. I strength train 2-3 times per week and have remained consistent for some time, so I don’t think it’s related to workouts. It’s not overly…
