Exercise - 1h40 cycling strength repeats on home trainer / 1h gym cross training Calories - yes Tracked - yes

@BMcC9 I could think of PBJ sandwiches, popcorn, fruit, jerky, protein powder, hard boiled eggs, depends what you need for matching your macros. But to be honest I am not mad about snacks so I prefer to just make my main meals bigger, and no snacking. Personal preference but it's an idea.

Exercise - 2h gym cross training / 2k swim Calories - yes Tracked - yes I have arranged things with work so that I can stay two full hours in the gym when I work with my coach. I'm quite happy about it, gym+swim days are usually lighter days I don't necessarily enjoy and I have to rush through the region to do…

There is no threshold dear, you do what you like to do. At the moment I burn around 800-1600 calories a day only of exercise. Then there is my basic alloted 1700 just to keep me alive. It is obvious at this point that, even if I wasn't in maintenance, I would have to eat at least some of my exercise calories back. The same…

@BMcC9 I think it's reliable. I burn about 60 calories (calculated by heart rate and VO2max so a reliable calculation) for a 1000m sprint that takes me about 4 minutes. Cycling burns a bit less than running so 80 cals for 7 minutes HIIT looks reliable to me.

@katp13 love your enthusiasm! :wink: Exercise - 1h30 indoor cycling / some gym cross training Calories - yes Tracked - yes Not keen on indoor cycling but this is race week again and I cannot risk a chill now.

Exercise - 100k road bike ride Calories - yes Tracked - yes Aaah...took advantage of the holidays to get back to normal with training and eating after the injury and the flu. And now looking back it feels so good to be back!! Nothing has been "normal" after that fall on Oct 27th, just barely made it to hold it together so…

Exercise - 20k run (all included warm up, hills, track, cool down) / 45 min gym cross training / 10k hike (leisurely) Calories - yes Tracked - yes

Exercise - 1h40 gym cross training/2.5k swim Calories - yes Tracked - yes I like CICO, it makes stuff a lot easier for me. I obviously keep an eye on my macros too so it's not calories but nonetheless it makes my life easier.

Exercise - 16k run (long repeats) Calories - yes Tracked - yes I am in maintenance so usually try to stay 100-200 calories down every day just for safety but eat back all my exercise calories.

Exercise - 1h40 gym cross training/45k mtb ride Calories - yes Tracked - yes Actually wanted to go for a walk too but I'm tied up to my desk doing admin. Uh oh.

Exercise - 2h hike / 2k swim Calories - yes Tracked - yes Really meant to skip swimming and go surfing but the water being around 3 C made me rethink about surfing...and falling...uh!

And today is my pass #3 as anticipated. Went back to racing today after missing three races in a row with an injury and then the flu. I was quite excited to make it to come back within the year, even if it was a real last call. Race went well, I'm satisfied and tired. Haven't talked to my main coach yet but think he'll be…

How about one whole year of UAC? I didn't think I'd stick with it when I started and dropped off a few months, although this is the longest I have been in it and I also think this is the best way to manage my diet/training. 2019 is going to bring me some new challenges, totally new (to me) racing distances and the training…

Hello there, I almost forgot that the month was ending I had not yet signed up. Im in my 4th or 5th month here, just maintaining. Welcome to all the new members!!

Hey! This reminds me I haven't signed up for January yet. Heading over as I finish typing this. I should make it to the circle this month. Have a pass left which I mean to use post-race on the 31st. As for today... Exercise - 18k run with 3k climb run twice, had planned to go to the gym later but had more than enough…

Exercise - 2h gym cross training / 1h40 sup rowing on flat Calories - yes Tracked - yes

Exercise - 10k run/1h gym cross training Calories - yes Tracked - yes Looks like I'll race on Monday, it will be the first race till I got injured in October. Fingers crossed!

Exercise - 15k run + 1h surfing Calories - yes Tracked - yes Oh dear. And I complained I was cold yesterday? Could barely feel my hands today despite the gloves. Definitely not going surfing tomorrow until it warms up at least a few degrees.

Exercise - 75k bike ride (road) / 1h surfing Calories - yes Tracked - yes Would have surfed for a bit longer but i was freezing despite how much I was bundled up so I went back home to thaw.

Actually. Uh. I logged stuff wrong yesterday and I only noticed today, it was not a pass. Sorry for the confusion. As for today. Exercise: 2h gym cross training / 2k swim Calories: yes Tracked: yes Tomorrow, cycling with the team (yay! I rarely see them!) then out to sea with the new sup and crossing fingers for some…

Exercise - 95k bike ride Calories - nope, went over by 150 Pass day #3 Tracked - yes

The statement "if you had more willpower" is a trap, sounds like willpower is something you are born with. It also provides a comfy excuse, I don't have willpower so alright I'll have the whole box of cookies. Truth is we have all the willpower in the world when the target is something we really want, when it really…

Exercise: 1h30 gym cross training/2.5k swim Calories: yes Tracked: yes

Exercise: 1h30 cycling on home trainer (strangth work)/gym cross training Calories: yes Tracked: yes Brought home my new sup last time. Sooo happy! I had planned to get it before Christmas and was running out of time without finding what I needed.

Exercise - 1h30 gym cross training / 2k swim Calories - yes Tracked - yes

Exercise - 10k run in the snow Calories - yes Tracked - yes Lmao! Running with the snowplowers has been totally new to me but fun.

@craigo3154 doesn't it look like a Quidditch match? Watched it expecting to see the golden snitch fly past! Exercise: 1h30 cycling on home trainer Calories NO Tracked NO This is pass day no.2 for me. I have consistently (500-1000) been down on calories all week due to the flu so I caught up as soon as possible. Hope to…

Exercise - 1h20 cycling on home trainer Calories - yes Tracked - yes Still off with the flu and on antibiotics. Bit pissed. Was supposed to race tomorrow but it's cancelled for me, third race cancelled in a row between injuries and now the flu. I suppose it will get better.
