I appreciate what you all are saying but let me mention a couple things: - When you go into a box and do Crossfit - you decide how much effort you take yourself. DO NOT do more than you feel you can do. Most any exercise can be scaled to your ability. If you are supposed to do 14 pound wall balls and are struggling - use…

Thanks for responding! I am up from 6:00am until 11:30 pm - so 90% of what I eat is between 1:00pm and 8:00pm - give or take a bit. Trying to concentrate all my calories in 7 hours. Reason for taking supplements in the morning - MEMORY. I keep forgetting. i know its ridiculous but I remember every morning so I take them…

Agree - mixed grip is awesome. If I didn't use a mixed grip I could not deadlift nearly as much.

I hate running......with a passion. I do it and suck. I have never had endurance for long distance running. I am so jealous. I am really getting into rowing and for some reason really like that. Appreciate you sharing Charlene.

I totally forgot about Kickboxing - and I am a martial artist myself. 12 years of Filipino stickfighting, Karate, grappling, etc. My wife used to take Kickboxing classes and they looked like a great workout.

I have been doing Crossfit for 3 years and can't begin to explain the feeling I get when I do a WOD that I know I really struggled with at the beginning. Constant improvement is great - but hard to maintain as the body adapts to your workouts. Thanks for sharing!

One of my favorite workouts is a Tabata-style WOD(workout of the day). A Tabata workout is a 4-minute workout that includes 20 seconds of very high intensity training followed by 10 seconds of rest. You repeat this cycle 8 times for a total of 4 minutes for a very short, very intense workout - for each exercise - usually…

Yes if used correctly along with proper diet just like any exercise. Rowing is a great exercise if you work hard at it.

Yes - that is very low. If you check it again and it is outside the range of 80-110 see a doctor.

Send me a message if you would like some assistance.

How did you come up with having a blood sugar of 55? What are you eating and when? Is the only exercise Cardio via treadmill? I would like to help you.

Diet Pepsi and Coke Zero...... I gave up soda for two years and got sucked back in this past summer. >:) The caffeine does help and carbonation helps keep me full and eat less.

Can you tell me what the shake recipe is? How much protein powder(brand also), plus what liquid and other additives you are putting in it? Am I correct that all you are eating is the shakes? How much walking?

2015 will be a great year, feel free to add.

Welcome back. So far I am loving this place and it is helping me stay on track with eating as well as working out. You can reach your goal!

Change up your exercise routine to confuse your body and shock it. Consider "Cardio HIIT" workouts - you can Google it. Not sure about your current diet and exercise.

Hi Kayla and welcome. I appreciate your honestly in your posting and there is a lot there to comment on. The first thing I want to say is whatever you want to do or be - you can do it! You need to believe that you can do it. Think about the people that love and care for you - friends, family - even teachers and guidance…

Absolutely not.

45 years old. Getting older can be a struggle. Injury can create massive setbacks so you need to do lots of warm ups and pace yourself. I am trying to lower my body fat percentage to under 10%. Diet is at least 70% of it while working out is the other 30%. Add of you would like.

In all seriousness your butt - the glutes - is a muscle and can get sore like any other muscle. Stretching is good. Another option is to have someone stick their elbow on each side and massage it. Hurts? It should but will help. No joke!

Like it has been said go slow want to lose fat? Eat low carb. Consider the Paleo diet. You may lose more early on just don't get discouraged if it levels out. Good luck!

Yup....will try not to break arm..... :D

Hello Kim.

Any place that you work out do they have a rowing machine or an Air-Dyne? Another option which people hate because - well, it works - is the burpee. Burpees are likely the single best exercise ever devised. Ride the elliptical for 5 minutes, get off and do 10 burpees. Then ride the elliptical for another 5 minutes - get…

Great job!!!

Welcome. I am new here as well.

You have already had lots of responses.... My answer? Yes - worth it.

Where do I see the person above ?
