I do Power 90 by Beach Body. Works well. Turbo Jam looks good too.

I'm not a gym rat so I got a trainer for my bike. It sits in my living room and when I watch tv I ride. I even for a Spinnerval DVD with some pretty intense workouts on them.

Erine, where do I find the info on HIIT. Interested in reading what they say.

Most of the time it's de-conditioning of the muscle. If you push the calf to fast it will get sore very easily because it is small and your exerting a lot of force on it. Also has to do with stretching. You need to stretch it often. Start be stretching it every morning. Then before your walks. After 5 minutes of walking do…

Well I'm hoping to be able to add something here. Just found out I have compartment syndrome in my calf and it makes it painful to run distance. So I'll be envious for a while.

Welcome to the site. Everyone here is extremely supportive. Portion size is a biggie that got me. I had to reduce my size and amounts. Your diet and to keep moving are most important. Go for a 45 minute walk each day will really help. Best of luck

Rome wasn't built in a day. Oh those famous words. It will take time to take off as it took time to put on. Stick with it and the rewards will be abound.

I thought to myself, "I'm still tired and do I really need a morning workout, what was I thinking". Then while laying there that first morning I said to myself "that's an excuse".…

I also agree to getting a heart rate monitor. I suggest Polar. They have a wide range and are the very best.

I do the Power 90 right now and will eventually graduate to P90X. Check out Turbo Jam. I'm considering getting it myself for a different workout.

Thanks, I do have a strong mindset so it does make it somewhat easier to make the choices for eating and training. Getting divorced at the end of the year so I have a lot of free time which you don't. Something I learned along the way with food is that it's hard to change your eating habits in one day. Make small changes…

For my eating I've gone to 5 times a day. Breakfast, AM snack, Lunch, PM snack and Dinner. No eating three hours before bed and lots of water. For the food I've limited what I eat to the top two tiers of Michi's Ladder. It's a food catagorizer that lets you see where the foods are that you are eating. If you eat from the…
