Brooks Runners

How do you manage exercise with migraines?
I am wondering how people manage exercising if they suffer from migraines? I’m barely managing just working a job, which makes it really hard to exercise and risk bringing on more migraines.

What if your workout...disappears?
I just got back from two weeks recovery where the doctor nixed the exact exercises in my workout routine. But, he didn't say I couldn't run.

Why does Strength Exercises seem to have no impact on Calorie intake? Only Cardio?
I notice when I put in my strength exercise routine in that it has no impact on anything and doesn't seem to be logged anywhere other than what the exercise is? Is there any point in going through this exercise when only cardio seems to have any impact?

For someone who hasn't been exercising or walking much for years, I recently got back into it and started with something familiar, 30 day shred.
