  • I have been using mine since April and I have found it quite helpful. The band syncs with Microsoft's health web app and allows to review all sorts of data. I have only used it to monitor sleep, pulse rates throughout my workouts, and to review activity after walking nine holes.
  • Devil's Backbone in Virginia can brew some good ones.
  • It would take me an irrationally long period of time to answer this question.
  • I bought my Xbone right after the price drop last year... So far so good as games go but I've been playing more PC lately. I do keep my 360 around for Stick of Truth when ever I feel the itch.
  • Pac-Man on the Atari 2600...
  • On Sundays I cook my proteins that will last me until lunch on Friday: 6 pounds of chicken, 1.5 pounds of steak, one pound of pork chops. Because I prefer my fish cooked fresh I cook that the night I am ready to eat it. I mix in plenty of fresh fruits and veggies to fill in the carbs, almonds and peanut butter to get some…
  • Hell yes it does!!! If you even knew how badly I want to fit back into my old Mortal Instruments costume?? I was so badass for a day... it was amazeballs D: *weeps*[/quote] Sweet... So we don't have to count the computer nerd part, my recently re-discovery of my Civ V addiction, my Lego's Darth Vader Desk Lamp, or the fact…
  • If you are completely new I would say steady, controlled movement with light weights. Your goals in the beginning should be to work only the intended muscle groups, master the movement, and strengthen your connecting tissue (so important and to often overlooked). A trainer probably wouldn't be a bad idea for a couple of…
  • My number one goal for getting in shape is so I can look good in a Captain America costume... Does that count?
  • I have been using the Microsoft Band with my Galaxy S3 and I like it... It integrates with MFP and I get to see breakdowns of my workouts, runs, and sleeping habits on Microsoft's health website. It's nifty and give some useful data.
  • I've been known to eat some fish (any kind) with rice for breakfast. Weirds out the folks at work.
  • Have you tried the "It's not you, it's me" line?
  • The best thing I did for me was buy a scale and measure everything I cooked, prepared, and consumed. I also had to come to terms with the fact that not eating enough can severely slow down progress. Stick with it and you will be rewarded!!!
  • Thanks for input everyone! I'll be putting them to use this week...
  • I went camping for a weekend about a month ago. I separated each protein serving into sandwich bags. I also prepared a few salads in some plastic ware so my veggies were also already measured. I used instant oatmeal for breakfast and shopped for plenty of fresh fruits for snacks. Since I'm usually pretty active on a…
  • Monday: Back and Shoulders, Tuesday: Biceps and Forearms, Wednesday: Legs, Glutes, and Hips, Thursday: Triceps and Chest. Everyday's warm-up consists of stretching, weighted curl-ups, and 15 minutes on the elliptical. Saturday is walking 9 holes or a visit to the gym to repeat a workout that didn't feel optimum. Friday and…
  • I enjoy movies so I listen to movie soundtracks...
  • I weigh myself before and after each workout so I can take note of fluid loss during the workout. I consider my weight after a workout on Monday (my first workout of the week) my "Official" weigh-in
  • Workout Days: 3000 - 3500 calories, 35 - 40% Carbs, 35 - 40% Prot, 20 - 30% Fat. Non-workout Days: 2300 - 2600 calories, with the same ratios.
