  • It is designed to fit under desks.
  • . I use this daily. Today, so far, 3 hours while working. Just make sure it has magnetic resistance.
  • please help! when I go to the apps tab and find misfit, I get the word "get" instead of "connect". I get directed to their website. I already have a misfit account, but cannot find how to sync with MFP. tried to download the manual, but did not succeed. how do I sync it?! :'(

  • I started 5x5 two weeks ago. I have about 33% body fat and don't know what to expect from this program. Did you eat at a deficit/maintenance/surplus? How many calories/day? Did you incorporate cardio? How much per day/week? I am VERY impressed with your results. Congrats!
  • me, me, me!! pick me!!
  • what bropoll and usmcpm say makes a lot of sense. I appreciate all of your input. I am paying the trainer because he is supposed to know.

  • hey pepper! I know, it sucks. few things that have worked for me: 1- I have heard before the "don't deprive yourself" stuff, but did not believe it. I thought if I took a bite out a piece of cake, I would fall off the wagon. I was wrong; they were right. I started eating some sort of candy for dessert after lunch and…
  • I'm keep a mini stationary bike under my desk. I pedal while I type/read. On a good day, I pedal over 4 hours. You can also go up and down stairs, if you have them. Do this once every hour for a week; the second week, twice every hour, etc. You can do squats every time you go to the rest room. Start with a certain amount…
  • That's a pretty noticeable difference for less than a month!!! :smiley: Keep it up!
