I would not do anything like squats or lunges until talking with a PT or doc. Not even one legged. if you lose your balance you have no way to recover bc your other leg is compromised.

5' tall 122 pounds my heaviest SQUAT is 200# my starting SQUAT was 135# my GOAL SQUAT is now 230# (I revised to 230 after meeting my original goal of 200) These are the numbers that matter to me. ETA: I'm 36 yrs old

OP, yes, you are right. Chuck's are a terrible choice if you have plantar fasciitis. If you are wearing custom orthotics (you should be) finding the right shoe to support the orthotic is important so your foot stays where it needs to be. Merrill's are a pretty good choice. We have a patient in our office that wears his…

There is nothing "special" about Halloween Candy.

:heart: :heart: :heart: I was just going to post the SAME thing!!! Now, say it with US: Weight loss is not linear!

hahahahahaha!!!! :laugh:

Weird, I've done 300 squats in one workout. What's the big deal?

this made me giggle

I love all upside down movements! A group of friends here on MFP used to do "wall walk Wednesday's" for practice.

Yep, it's your grip getting stronger!!!

In case anyone hasn't seen this amazing snatch: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hVTYRjSDyC4&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DhVTYRjSDyC4 Then here is the commentary: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HQ_qSpEsaRw&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DHQ_qSpEsaRw Of course you should still watch all the Burgener stuff as well as the videos at…

OP, you are SO right! Some people can be real *kitten*, and I'm not referring to the old folks at your gym.

2-3 orange bell peppers.

<Lulu makes good ones, like this.

Shush! Could you please try not to post such complicated recipes! :wink:

How many recipes have fish plus another meat in them?? Not many. (yes, there are some.) Just GOOGLE "fish recipes" You don't even need to get fancy and call it "pescetarian", just "fish" will work perfectly.

one more thing; "everything in moderation" does NOT mean "moderately eat everything in one day"

Let me break is down further; in order to do IIFYM it needs to, (are you ready?) ....... FYM !!!! Good grief. If you tend to go over LOG YOUR FOOD FIRST, THEN EAT so you know how much you can eat without blowing your macros.

DO IT! DO IT! DO IT! Here is a link to a video shot at our box a few years ago. This is what I show people when they think they need to "get in shape" to start working out at a box. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcSa_AYGiNI&list=PL164F850DC8837070&index=1 The CrossFit community will welcome you happily, no matter size,…

Um, no.

Wait, lifting is hard? Are you telling me I can't just add 5# to my squat every week and be at 500# in 6months? OH! Well, screw this crap! I quit! :explode:

I always say I'm the worst counter in CrossFit. Why? Because I give everything I've got and realize it's not about the white board. If someone wants to be a busy body and count my reps or rounds, be my guest. I promise you I've missed some and I've done extra. Of course, I've maybe finished three times in two years. The…

I cannot even fathom, not even for a second, staying with a guy who thought it was ok to insult my body, muscles, choices, etc. A comment like that, even in jest, would get a nasty look and a prompt, "eff you". Imagine for a second if the situation were slightly different. Say, perhaps, that you had a lapse in routine for…

Super hot.

I make no promises. Once a cheater, always a cheater. ETA: I'd also like to point out that you can't generally expect a cheater to keep a promise/pledge. So asking people to join you would be asking for a considerable leap of faith.

Sugar from ice cream = BEST

A protein shake (or 2) made with full fat coconut milk, almond butter, and banana could probably get you there.
