I have had expensive and cheap ones. One was 23.00 on ebay and worked just as well and almost as long as the one I got from Samsung. In fact the cheap one had pulse and bp, the expensive one did not. Anyway if you are looking for medical equipment type accuracy you are not going to get it. If you are looking to make sure…

Do step ups only using the lead leg, do not push from the ground leg. We did 20" ones at crossfit to strength each leg independently. Start with the weak leg, step up lean forward a little, you will feel your weight shifting forward, push up through your heel, stand up bringing your back let up onto the box.

Short walk at lunch. Mile walk in the evening before BootCamp at CrossFit. 15 stations twice through each station and then 5 ab exercises before dismissal.

Also make sure you are not cutting calories too far. You still want to eat in a healthy manner.

I use a macro diet. It would be extremely hard for me to ever go over on protein.

My husband starts to join in but gives up pretty quickly. He has enrolled in exercise classes and gyms. He has followed my eating pattern and lost a ton only to go back to sugar and chips. That being said I can either let it bother me and sit in the house with him or keep doing what I am doing. I am going to keep doing…

Our area is very rural also. The roads are not conducive to riding, walking or running. However we have a system of trails where railroads are not being used any longer. The paths are already there, so it did not cost the local government as much to utilize them. They are well used and appreciated.

Moderation, self accountability, common sense, portion control need to take a front seat here. It is nice to have calories on menus etc. But really....if most people want something they are not going to care or do something stupid like not eat tomorrow. I think we have enough laws and policies....do you really want the…

You got it dude. I like to chit chat and post motivational things more than what I ate or didn't eat. I do post about my workouts. But because I enjoy that not to complain :smiley:

I find it true. I have lost and gained weight my entire life. The last year and a half my fitness routine has grown significantly. I was always busy, multiple jobs including those with manual labor but I would go back up to or near starting weight. You cannot out exercise a bad diet either. I have changed my eating as well…

I went to chiropractor. They used a blade massage technique, regular massage, KT tape and gave me exercises to do with two pounds weights. Was able to resolve the impingement without shots or surgery. I did not stop exercising, I modified my activity.

never heard of it

I am 50. I am in better shape than I have ever been. I think most of the aging vs getting old debate is mind set. My best friend is 70, my oldest sister is 80. Both of them travel like there is no tomorrow. I just took pictures of my by bf's house because she and her husband are selling and moving south. they have never…

I can always use friends. I am 50 spouse is 61. I strive to make fitness and nutrition a lifestyle, don't always succeed. My husband is a stop and start person. He will do super well and then he stops all of the good habits. Trying to get him back on track. We have a trip planned in September seems like a good time to get…

50

the voices in my head

sounds right to me. I eat 1900 on maintenance at my activity level.

I am 50. I started CrossFit at the age of 49. CrossFit is funcitonal fitness. Nobody, not even a young person walks into a crossfit gym able to do everything in the program. However, there are modifications for different levels of fitness. I went from a 14 or 16 to an 8 or a ten. because of an increase of activity I eat…

I am 50. I started macro nutrition about a year ago and have lost 37 pounds. I wore a 14 or 16 and now wear an 8 or ten. I actually eat more now than I ever did, just better quality foods and striving to hit macro numbers. I also do CrossFit. I started at 2 days a week then went to three and now do four unless other…

no idea why my pics load sideways!

This is freaking fantastic. I wish I could see the original post as I reply because I kept seeing things I wanted to comment on. Amazing work. A little jelly that you are going to picnic with the crew from the hundred acre woods, but other than that very very very happy for you and your wife. She already loved you…

this definitely works. I have fine hair, a lot but texture fine. I wear my hair up and take it down and have great waves. I also have used one of the auto curlers, it does work for me for very lose curls. I have poker straight hair so it does not give tight curls at all.

Thank you. Still going. On fifth week of a ten week transformation challenge.
