Perhaps I could have worded it slightly better but that wasn't what I meant. To reduce body fat you have to be in a caloric deficit relative to your total energy expenditure (If you burn 1400kcal in a day, you need to eat less than this amount). To know how many calories you are consuming you need to be tracking your…

feel free to add me too :-)

In terms of nutritional content calories are not equal and the effect they have on your body is not equal.... the composition of calories 100% has an effect on your body and performance.

Active Recovery - light run, yoga, mobility, swimming, cycling. Keep moving in some way or another with much less intensity. This website is great - http://www.mobilitywod.com/ Also download the Yoga Studio App, it's like having a free Yoga Coach in your lounge or bedroom :smile:

Hi, I am in the process of doing my advanced diploma in Nutrition & Weightloss. It would be interesting to see your food diary. It does sound like you are eating too little. Is this consistent every day? Are there things you aren't logging? Yes, counting macros can help lean you out because calories are not equal. So it…

Raw Cacao Powder is the highest plant based source of iron. It contains 7.3mg per 100g combared to lamb and beef at 2.5mg and spinach at 3.6mg. Combine with vitamin C for maximum absorption

Arnica tablets and arnica cream are amazing for bruising

Yeah I'm very tempted to do the same. I have zero will power though!!

Haha love it

Look at Ugg Foods. They do a really good Chia Seed and Nit bread mix you just add eggs and olive oil to, whack in the oven and bake. Delicious

Thanks guys. Yeah I am gonna try the weird thumb grip and see if that helps. @Inkratlet mine does feel like a sort of cramp haha

Love the idea of a running club!

Hey guys, not heard of Eat to Perform. Gonna google it now

Hi! I am at 1200 a day and eat back exercise calories which is usually about an extra 650 cals. I have been following the above for about 5 weeks now and have lost 2lbs so very steady. I am in no rush and also enjoy a glass of wine or 3 on the weekends. I also don't count calories on weekends but watch my portions and try…

This article is interesting and explains it but in a nut shell I was eating too many calories for my body as it was so when I reduced them initially i went back to normal calories (based on body Masal rate) and also made sure I had enough protein. My weight loss was also very steady, not fast at all. 2lbs in 5 weeks. But…

I've started added some running into my fitness regime which has helped loads. My box is about a 6 minute fairly fast run from my house so I make myself run there and back which is 12mins of extra cardio and found it's helped me over the last 3 weeks. Also I need to have more rest days. I do CF 5 times a week but break it…

We did the following WOD in pic. Our box is focusing on building strength these next 6 weeks along with a lot of strict movements. My body is definitely feeling the volume and load difference this week. Rest days will be important o:)

Now that you mention it MUALaurenClark you're right - I'm not doing that grip!! I remember being taught it and hating it but I will give it a go again. Hopefully it helps!! @bostonwolf - haha yes the callouses are forming!! :)

Our box uses: Wodify. All members track their progress and you can see the whiteboard on your app so makes it nice and competitive. Think it would need to be something your box adopted though for you to use it

Hi, I've been doing Crossfit for about 3 months now. When I first started I was heavily into Paleo and I found that I was eating as much as I wanted as long as it was paleo and I wasn't watching any portion control. So I was following paleo similar to Atkins in the sense that I was expecting to be able to eat as much as I…
