Just got back from doing the Tahoe Tough Mudder. I'm super sore but I finished it and tried all but two of the obstacles available for a first timer. One of which needed lots of teamwork and myself and my buddy couldn't do alone so we skipped it as no one else was doing it at that point either. We are the two oldest on our…

Had a bad day last week with some hidden NSV's... My wife had a small heart attack on tues, I say small because the EKG's were all negative and it took the blood test to confirm it actually happened. The angioplasty (sp?) went well and they gave her a stent in one artery that was partially blocked. Now she's home and…

If you don't like the food that you are now eating you are setting yourself up for failure. It maybe easier for you to just practice more portion control when starting and work in healthier options that you like over time. You didn't gain 40+ pounds overnight or even a week so don't set unrealistic goals and be too…

I think the downhill hurt as much or more as the uphill…

The parks service has shut off access past the 3 mile bridge (rain damage) so I started working on keeping track of the time and working to improve my time on the 6…

I've been using the pull-up assist machine working towards the day when I won't need it to do my first real pull up in years. Well, yesterday on a whim I tried the regular pull up bar and managed 2 good form pull-ups. YES! I'll keep working with the assisted machine to get in sets of 10 after doing as many regular pull-ups…

If you to into the jefit website then to 'my routines' you can edit the rest period for each exercise to match what you want. At the top of that days workout there is an 'edit' button then once it's in the edit screen you'd again click the edit button at the bottom of the page. short version: my routines -> edit ->edit ->…

Since Jan 11th, I've been working out M-F at 5am with a co-worker. I really, really wanted to sleep in this morning but instead I got up and made it to the gym on time.

That looks fun, and is probably safer then one of the smaller versions due to the bigger wheels and ability to handle rougher surfaces better.

Health NSV's are very awesome, congrats!

First post here but I've been on MFP for 34 days. I discovered this thread a couple of weeks ago and have been working my way through it reading the great stories and accomplishments everyone has had so far in their journey. It has provided a lot of inspiration to stay motivated and make this a long term lifestyle change.…
