    I swim competitively, 3 days swimming 3 1/2 hrs w/ 45 min dryland, 3 days swimming 2 hrs.... Just started my food journal and very confused about my target calories/diet profile....its telling me I need to eat this extraordinary amount of calories on one page, but diet profile doesn't seem to take into account the exercise I am doing. Not sure what to do-stay within calories on diet profile or each additional calories that home page is telling me I need. I want to drop about 15 lbs but not loose any muscle. Been doing this exercise routine for 6 months, but no weight loss. Can anyone explain?

    Softball for fitness (you can get great cardio and an ab workout with batting practice and running around on the field, playing catch, etc)

    For competition:
    Softball and Kickball

    I played softball in college and I continue to play now. I play for 2 teams year round. (:
    I'm also planning on playing sand volleyball this summer once I'm done with my clinicals!

    I train Karate in a class 2x a week, and train a mix of karate and TKD at home almost every night. I used to do a twice-a-year competition for TKD, but since leaving Colorado I haven't found one I'm interested in that isn't incredibly far away. :-/

    I train Muay Thai 5x a week. I usually spar with my kru, I'd love to be able to fight but I have yet to score one. I sometimes play badminton and basketball if i am not too tired from training.

    I train muay thai five times a week, too. I've been at it for six months now. I'm not good enough or fit enough to fight yet, but I've already lost 40 pounds doing it, so you never know! I love sparring and pad work, it's always the height of my day.

    I put on a kilt and throw rocks and trees a few times a year.

    We call it a sport, some people call it lunacy. Everyone calls it the highland games :D
