I would say you can't turn off cravings completely. Just have to manage them. I would drink 16oz of water and eat something balanced like a protein bar or Greek yogurt with granola. And after that, if I'm still craving something I would get it or get a healthy equivalent. For KFC, I would say air fry some chicken and just…

Hey all. I am an avid runner (marathons). My last race was in Feb. I ran the Panama City Marathon. Haven't been training for any new races yet just maintenance miles. Would love to run some races overseas

Well first thing look at your schedule and see what times you have for workouts. Give it an honest look. Don't BS yourself with it saying I don't really have time. Those are excuses. Second, figure out what time of day do you like to workout. Some people like early morning, and others like afternoon or nights. If your not…

Well first is rest and recovery. I would do some cardio based work so you get a burn and work the legs w/o stressing the hammie/glute. Something like elliptical or stationary bike. Second is figure out what caused the issue. Overworked, bad form, too much weight, poor muscle flexibility, lack of hydration. Correct this to…

That's what's up. Keep the mindset about finishing no matter what. Be smart and consistent with your training. Train for the race you have coming and don't cheat yourself. And when race day comes trust in your training. You got this

I miss Giordiano's. I need to go back and visit my fam and eat up.

I like seeing people and their progress too. Makes it fun and interesting.

I'm up most nights. But it's a little different for me, firefighter so it's up and down. Sleep, awake, sleep awake...etc....

You got this....

I have used a bunch of Bluetooth headphones. The cheapo Bluetooth work but they usually have some kind of issue that just irrates me like one going out, don't stay in place, or something. I haven't seen anything reasonable that you could use in a pool. But the best fitting and sounding headphones I have used are the LG…

Well, some good news is that you reached your goal weight. Now here is the struggle. You hit a plateau so now every pound is hard. When you first started the pounds came off in bunches. Here is the real. It's not about pounds anymore. You want to drop BY. That is MUCH harder but possible. Now is the time to focus on proper…

Yeah, it is a great day for a run. Sadly I'm at work today. But I may go out of service to go for a run. Seeing they want us to do PT.

Invite sent.

Yup, you can definitely do a 5K. Just get out there and follow the program.

Still up......... .haven't been to sleep yet. So much for not running calls. Well got 1 and a half hours to go. C'mon 8 am!

Night life junkie! I'm sitting in my rescue unit now. Hoping we don't get another call, fire or hazmat tonight. 24hr shift.....

Hi. I'm a runner. Been running for years now. Add me as a friend. Better nutrition is the key to maintaining you weight.

I got a pretty stressful job (firefighter) too so I use working out as my outlet. And the temptation of the fire house cooking is ever present. So I bring my own food. My crew is cool and they are now trying to become healthier so they don't give me too much of a hassle. They actually are putting a little effort into…

Ok so here's the thing. You can do whole body workouts back to back. The body will adjust as long as you don't go bananas. With that being said you got to hydrate, eat properly- good carbs, lean proteins, whole grains, fiber and balance calcium. And get good sleep! Sleep is when the body repairs itself. So if you want to…

Well, sitting at the airport with an hour plus delay isn't fun.....

I'm flying.......

Oh man. I could write a book on this. It's been a long road for me to get here. I used to try and lift everyone with me but their lack of desire kept me back. I came to the conclusion that I will no longer wait for you anymore. If I want it, I will have to go get it myself. So I go to the gym, run and do whatever without…

Veggie chili in the crock pot. Start it in the morning and get it when you get off work. Flat-out flatbread pizza w/ sauce, fat free mozz, and any toppings you want. Sautéed tofu and veggies. Veggie burger on wheat bun. And etc.....

Some good answers in here. Just remember this, keep your body confused when training. When you first begin DOMS will be an issue. Alternate your training, to compensate. And most importantly, your diet is 90% of the battle.
