What worked for us was "small tweaks" now granted, progress wont be as dramatic but your moving in the right direction. Swap out ground turkey for ground beef, sweet potato fries instead of regular etc. Another strategy I used was doing a meal replacement in lieu of one of the meals. You can cut a chunk of calories out of…

Hey Brian, replied to your email but ill post here too. The Beachbody programs typically have different focuses. Insanity is pure cardio and not alot of focus on muscle development, so if you depend on the scale for motivation...Insanity will be your new best friend. It is intense, but just keep moving, even if your…

Welcome! Just outside of Portland here.

Ok...first the disclaimer, im a Beachbody coach (Basically just to get the shakes at the discounted price) My body doesn't seem compatible with Shakeology either. It was pretty much the worst imaginable pain I have experienced. Being in the Marines and working my best to develop a "iron stomach" didnt seem to help lol. Now…

I can honestly say I am in much better shape and stronger than I was when I was in boot camp (last few months of 1990) and all 4 that i was in. What I have come to realize is that the big obstacle when you hit 40 is that recovery time is lengthened somewhat. I noticed this when I was doing some MMA training, the "kids"…

Ug life got the better of me and the garage got really cold. I have been doing just enough to maintain... I am thinking of jumping into p90x2 soon, now that i cant see my breath anymore in the garage...

Grew up in spokane, totally remember that goat at riverfront park! Down in Portland now, I do miss the four seasons. Here we have day and wet lol

I have p90x2 (unopened) and have done p90x, it may be time to get it done.

Take care of yourself, your posting is inspiring.. work has had me under their thumb lately..still getting my workouts in but little time to post etc... :(

Yep, I eat all of these...maybe an add would be whole grain toast with almond butter. my normal staple is a bowl of unflavored oats, i dump some cinnamon in there (that helps regulate sugars as well) . I also do a shake with a low gyclemic index on occasion.

Lake Oswego here, feel free to add me!

Love to check it out!

Sure, add me in!

Welcome, former Marine here, feel free to send me a request!

Yep we got to do what we can to push each other, I will be at the parents for 4 days, not sure how im going to work it in... i plan on running...but not sure ill be able to work up a sweat in the livingroom :(

The soreness is a challenge, and hear you on the running...its sunny and blue sky outside but about 30 degrees...grrr and brrrrrr! One of my motivations is looking forward to running on a nice spring day without all the giggle!

Nice! Im hangin in as well, next week will be harder...may have to shuffle some workouts around but not planning on missing them :)

Welcome! I am not sure what cha got going on there with the tower 2000, never tired one... for back, if your engaging your lats then that should be working...chins are more bicep focused IMHO.

wooo...got mine in, its only 520 and can barely keep my eyes open...

Nice, got mine in today and managed to limp through Wednesday bootcamp as well :)
