Maybe you are not walking slow enough and thats why your HR isnot going down much. Why would you take calories off? If your HR is up your burning calories it doesnt matter what you are doing, If you were lying there and your HR was 189 then you HR is 189 and your burning calories.

Still? lol All day everyday baby!

No not in my case. I just kept pushing past my max and I didnt know I was pregnant :( But I am not anymore :brokenheart:

Hahaha I had a scare a few weeks ago with this routine: (copied and pasted so the numbers are from my records) 20 Min Stairs level 4 (calorie burn program) 20 Tredmill - Incline 7.5 at 3.5 MPH 2-3 mins then walk backwards and increase until incline 15 ulternating walking forward and backwards. SO every 2-3 mins of walking…

OIC I googled it. Thanx. I never do the same workout in a week. I will do similar routines but I switch every one. For example, I tricep push ups but the day before I did tricep dips or I did and open squat the day before but this session I did an open squat jumping jack into a exposive jump. Does that make sense or? SO I…

Only cardio: Jump Rope Routine 4 rounds 4 mins - jump 30 x's and mark on paper 1 min - Leg up/downs (one ab exercise) Then repeat 4 times and there is 20 mins. At the end of your work out you tally up the amount of jumps/skips for each round. Its fun bc the next week you try to beat it. So you are competing with your self!…

Increase your intensity. Do you do intervals and circuits?
-
Its all about trial and error. Soon you will know what you can and can not eat.
-
No my HRM is fine. I get tense walking around if i am not working out lol

Personally I will always need to be at a gym but to loose lbs you do not need a gym. There are so many workouts that I do at the gym that I could simply do in my backyard I just dont like to. Have you you tubed workouts? Bodyrock.tv is a great place. She does everything at hime in her house or outside. She even has a…

You wet the strap. You will see when you look at at where the water is suppose to go. Make sure it is really wet. If it dries up and your not sweating it might stop picking up your heart rate so keep it moist by doing a good workout. It is placed under your boobies and should be a bit to the left since your heart is more…

HOLLY MOLLY!! I hope they figure it out!! What State/City are you in?
-
Get it girl!!! :flowerforyou:

Wait I am confused. Waht do you mean? How to find the right hrm where you enter your information? Is that waht you mean...
-
Of course you are going to loose lbs when you first start it bc it is something different but 4 weeks later its going to be "the scale stopped". Walking isnt going to get you the results you want in the long run. Also, interval training and circuit training are the best way to burn calories in a short amount of time so…
-
Polar watches are the best HRM This is the interval timer I use and its cheap. I swear by it!!!
-
Sorry but it is true. Walking doesnt burn much and nither does swimming. My HR doesnt get too high while swimming. If I swim its not for the exercise its just bc I feel like it.
-
I dont know if you came across my forum a while ago but I was haVing trouble with my polar bc I wasnt washing it correctly. Make sure you are washing it after each session and once a week you are suppose to wash it in the washing machine but DO NOT PUT IT IN THE DRYER,
-
So true thats why I stopped doing Spin Class!! I would look at my HRM and it would be only like 430! It would infurate me bc I could loose so many more doing my own cardio or workout!
-
Yes very off. I highly suggest Polar HRM worth the money!!
-
No the HRM is custom to your lbs, height, and sex. It is much more accuate. What are you doing on Wii Fit?
-
You welcome :blushing: Do you have an interval timer?

Ok so with your level of education do you know or what do you suggest about the whole "cardio before/after weight training"?
-
That is not good advice - Trainers tell you to do cardio after weight lifting. Where did you get your information?
