I.m so confused. the easiest assessment I get is .8 g protein per kg body weight. If I work this in conjunction with measured protein shakes it dumbs it right down for me.

I hope i.m not piggy backng your posting but . . . . Same issue with me! :smiley: I.m also doing just about the same amount of exercise - perhaps a little more running and one day less strength. I was just about to post this very subject :smile: The gold standard protein shakes are only around 500 kilo joules single scoop…

Hi! Love your groupings :smile: Yes - I.m sitting at 2 - & keen to upgrade to the big 3 - we'll big for me as its been a few years since I did triathlons and the running was never a strong point for me. I used to enjoy the swimming and cycling much more. :smiley:

Hi that's different again to the LTHR - I guess it's just been two weeks since I started and while weight loss us my first goal I really want to increase my speed over time and I thought by monitoring my heart rate that would be the easiest way. So I don't know my pace - at this stage I guess the jogging at 7 km pace on…

Hi. Yup - back to counting calories. . . I think what I've done is increased my speed too quick - I started jogging two weeks ago and am really enjoying it but also mindful of my initial weight loss goal It makes sense to run outside to burn more calories - that could be something I try. It's been a few years. THANKS YOU!…

Thanks for that. Early days. I'll try staying at a conversational pace over 30 minutes and go from there I think.

Thanks for that. Didn't run my "a" off but got a basic understanding of everything so far. At this stage I think I'll do just that - keep my pace even and keep up just the 7 km :smile:

I needed to be reminded about the conversational pace so thank you. I increased my speed just half a km and that was too much over 30 minutes. I'm leaning now - towards jogging at 7 km to maintain a heart rate around 145. See how I go :smile:

Thanks you! Now I just have to hit that treadmill and start properly monitoring my heart rate

Hi again. No - it's not confusing but really interesting. I managed to stay at around 145 - jogging for 30 minutes - using the treadmill @ 7 km. While weight loss is my priority I really want to gain speed and distsnce. Half sn hour at 7 km gets me under 4 km. I too don't want to go by "the feel" - if I did that I would…

THANKS! off to test my LTHR this morning :smile:

Hi! Thanks! I.m kind of enjoying jogging at a certain pace. ..the interval training will be good to pick up my pace eventually do you think?

Hi! Good advice! Think I was trying to find a "recipe " for successful weight loss while building up my running pace. And there's a lot of info about the myth "fat burn zone " online.
