Pre-Work Out at 5AM & Post Work Out while at the gym ideas
Hello Everyone, I've started the Jamie Eason LiveFit this week. I am doing the workouts at 5:30AM, so does anyone have ideas for a pre-work out meal that early? Right now I am having a banana. It's just to early to eat, but I know I have to eat something. Any suggestions? Also, I am done with the workout by 6:30AM. I then…
HELP! Jaime Eason's calorie counting?
Specifically for those doing the live fit program. Hello everyone! I just started wk 7 of live fit and had a question about her calorie counting method. So she said take your ideal weight and multiply by 10, then add 200-500 calories. I'm 5'1, So for me my goal weight is 105-110. So following her own personal example I…
Cardio during Phase 1
I have been doing weights since October 1 but have decided to do the 12 week program. I did do week one last week. The question I have is, that it states no cardio during phase 1. I do cardio everyday 12 min. before workout and 12 min after. I also spin 3-4 times a week. For those that have done the 12 week program do you…
Phase 2 Cardio
Monday is the big day Phase 2. I'm excited and not at the same time. It says to do medium cardio. What would you ladies say is medium?? When I was walking on treadmill I'd go only 3.5 but thats a almost fast walk for my short legs. On the Arc Trainer I was go varying resistances and incline. Edit: Should we be at a certain…
Question About How to do Sets?
Do you all do all three sets in a row when doing an exercise move before starting a new move. OR, do you all do all 3 sets in circuit fashion?? I'm still in phase one.
Squats
How are you doing your squats? My gym doesn't have a squat rack just a Smith Machine. I have been using the SM.
Sick?

Would you take the rest day and hope it gets better or save the rest day in case you REALLY…
Just checking in!
Hello Ladies.. for the next few days I won't be able to do the LiveFit-Jamie Eason program. I probably wont be back until about Friday/Saturday. I'm having something done medically (nothing serious, but needed) so no straining for a few days. Just checking in so you all don't think I fell of the face of the earth. I will…
HELP!!!!
Ok...so since today is a day off from school for my son I figured skip the gym today, but I looked up the week 3, day 1 exercises and though I had glanced through some of the workouts before signing up I didn't really think about them. Anyhow, I knew we were going to 5 days this week, but I wasn't exepecting some of the…
