    I started on Jan 4th and I like the program Hammer & Chisel so far! I completed 2 rounds of 21 Day Fix and loved that program!

    Hi everyone, I am currently on week 2 of Hammer & Chisel. I just actively started using MFP account again and have synced it with my Fitbit Charge HR. I am curious if you all are manually logging your H&C workouts? If so, how are you doing it? I want to be sure I am getting the correct calorie adjustments for these intense workouts! Thanks for any advice you can give me!

    Hi Jenny. I wear a polar HRM when I'm doing the H&C workouts and then I log my calories for that workout in MFP. I create it as a new exercise.

    Is it better than the other two that you mentioned? I'm on month 3 of body beast but am taking a break and doing 30 day shred. Forgot how much I loved hopping in front of my TV.

    Im doing BodyShred now. Has anyone done both that can comment on the differences? Edit to add: I do not have a bench or pull up bar. :(

    I'm getting ready to start my 2nd round but I didn't get much results and I think it's because I'm just not eating enough, I just got back on MFP today and totaled up my weekend and today and it seems I'm eating about 1200-1400 a day and since I lift really heavy and am almost 5'9 (153 pounds) I think I should be eating more but I used to be over 100lbs over weight (this was 24 years ago) it's so scary for me to EAT MORE, every time I try to increase my calories for my workouts my jeans start getting tight and I am so uncomfortable, I'm "thinking" of adding in Shakeology or / AND a protein drink each day and try DRINKING my extra calories since eating more makes me very full and bloated, would love to hear your thoughts. I just can't get into using those little containers, I end up stressing myself out, I usually eat the same stuff "most" days and just switch out a veggie or protein.

    I just started and so far really like it. Some stuff is a little above my abilities and I need to modify a little but all in all I think its a great program.

    I’m not sure of this group is still active… I was wondering if you guys are using the containers or logging the calories suggested using my fitness pal?
