I was so in the zone these past few days that I forgot to check in, sorry guys :neutral:. Been upping my exercise time and I think that I'm getting close to needing to up my weights again but we'll see. Been in some good practice with my on the weekends though. I've been shooting so much recently that it's making my dog…

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1217573/so-you-want-to-start-running#latest < This is a good read. Also, running is a personal preference. Either you love it or you hate. If you find that running is just not for you, not something that you enjoy, then try something else like: swimming, zumba, hiking, etc.…

Well first off, "toning" is a myth. We all have muscle, and we can show it off by losing the body fat that's covering it up and build muscle by doing bulking and cutting cycles or through recomp. Lifting helps improve strength, build muscle, and defines muscle. But as for the answer to your question....start now, I promise…

I can see how that can be considered rude, but I don't think she meant it to sound that way. Sometimes people just don't think before they say something. You just have to brush it off and let it go.

Planks are a calisthenics/pilates/yoga exercise. If you want to record under strength training, then do a search for it (I know that nothing will come up) and when the "no search results" msg pops up at the bottom of the page there will be a spot highlighted in blue that says "add exercise", click that and it will allow…

Most HRM's aren't very reliable while lifting because it's not very constant (breaks are usually taken in between sets). You can log it as strength or weight training under cardio, the calorie burn won't be that much and of course will be an estimate.

Eating at a calorie deficit is how you lose weight, exercise is for health and for reaching your specific goals.

My days are pretty much all the same, except for the weekends. My weekend schedule is always plan as you go, but the weekdays look like this: 5:30am: wake up, make breakfast, make coffee, feed cats, make sure husband gets up 6:30am: 15 min. workout 7:30am: leave for work 9:00am: snack (fruit & yogurt) 11:30am: take lunch,…

I love how she responded. I hope he reads it and feels really bad about himself for that. @Soopatt, first off I want to let you know that I'm not trying to be rude in my response to what you said about people hiding behind fake profile pictures, and if it comes out that way then I do apologize. But some people, like…

Rest days are very important, they give the body and your muscles time to repair and recover. Being lightly active on your rest day is fine though. You can take light walks or do some yoga, anything that doesn't put to much strain on the body.

Are you weighing all of your solid foods with a scale and measuring all of your liquids? Because you could be eating more than you think you are. It's possible that you're underestimating the calories that you eat and overestimating the calories that you burn.

^^^^ I'm not sure what that has to do with the OP having trouble not losing weight.

It's all about personal preference (not the movies that I've watched) and how I was raised. I carry one because that it is my choice for personal protection, I also carry a hunting knife and mace on my key chain. 75% of the time I can probably get to my knife faster than my gun or my mace anyways. But of course after my…

They make hip holsters for both handguns and knives. Some shops carry gun belts specific for active people like hikers, runners, etc. In most states training and a permit is required to carry a gun legally anyways. I don't leave home without mine even though I've never been assaulted or run into a situation where I felt I…

I'm 5ft, CW 110. I'm slowing in the process of starting recomp while also trying to get down to 105 (lowering body fat). I'm eating close to 1500-1600 calories each day (depending on the day) and when I get to maintenance I'll probably end up eating 1700-1800. I lift 3 days a week 30-60 min. per session and I run 3 days a…

Hey everyone, Today is cardio day for me. I did an HIIT circuit this morning that focused mainly on squats and this afternoon I'm going to up my run to 45 min. and I might shoot my bow afterwards. Isabelle, I can definitely relate. I've discovered that my strength training sessions as helped me improve a lot in other areas…

When I started running we didn't own a dog, so I kept a small hand gun and my hunting knife strapped to my hip during my runs. Because there is really no "good" neighborhood to run in in my town I wanted to be extra careful. I'm not sure how your gun laws are though for your city or state, but I would highly consider it or…

Alisa, take it easy for a little while and enjoy that hot bath. I upped my run to 40 min and my top speed to 6 mph yesterday. I felt I could have gone longer but I didn't want to push myself too hard. I'm glad I didn't too, because my legs feel like jello today lol. My circuit this morning and my lifting routine this…

For weight/fat loss eat at a calorie deficit. Exercise for health and physical goals. When deciding to start exercising it is important to find something that you will enjoy, you can fit into your schedule, and you can sustain as a lifestyle. Some people hate cardio so they choose not to do it but lift weights instead,…

I've been weight/strength training for a few months now and I really enjoy it. You can check out my profile, I have my workout plan laid out in my description and I keep my food diary open to anyone. Add me if you like :smile:.

Hey, Yesterday after my lifting session, I shot my bow for a bit. Today is my cardio day so I did a fun 15 min HIIT this morning and this afternoon I'm going do my 30 min interval run. I might try to up my speed a bit but we'll see. The bosses are taking us (the clerk's) out to eat today so I'm looking up the restaurant…

Go ahead :smile:

Surprisingly, even though I pretty much ate what ever was in front of me, I did pretty good calorie wise this weekend. I did a good bit of walking as well, I went shopping this weekend so I was on my feet for my whole 3 day weekend. I gained a pound at the beginning of the week and then lost in by the end of the week lol,…

Heart rate monitors are most accurate with steady state cardio, if you lift weights or do any type of strength or resistance training it won't be very accurate. Strength training and lifting can be logged as "strength training" (lifting/weight machine/resistance), " weight training " (lifting), or " circuit training "…

To lose weight you just need to eat at a deficit.

I do agree that it is going to mainly depend on when you can work it into your schedule. Some people workout twice a day 6 days a week, while other people may only workout 4 or 5 days a week. Some people do cardio and strength training in the same day, while others alternate days. It all depends on you and what you believe…
