That’s what I do too. I’ve always been more inclined in cardio than lifting but I have recently gotten into heavy lifting and while I noticed it’s benefitted my running tremendously, I have to do cardio prior to lifting. I believe my muscle memory for running is just at a higher tolerance than lifting so I’m able to run…

I have major depressive disorder and opt out of medication because I was on many different meds throughout the years so I completely know how you feel. I am a single mom to twins, 27, and still live with my dad. I just got over a depressive episode where I did nothing for a week straight but lay in my bed and it is…

Took me alittle over 2 years, but I weighed about 141 when I first found out I was preg with twins, gained 50 lbs total, lost about 15 after the girls were born, and now I'm down between 122-124, which is obviously about 20lbs lighter than my pre-preg weight...so as long as you lose your remaining weight (after your lil…

I can walk 1mi and burn nearly 70 calories more than running at a 6.8mph pace for a mile. So basically,…

your heart rate shouldn't really get TOO high, but you don't want to stay in your max heart rate zone for more than a minute, but you don't want your heart rate to be too low either because it won't improve your endurance.

Second step is to realize you aren't the…

Breakfast needs to be around 350 calories, a small snack before lunch, lunch is the smallest caloric intake of a main meal you should have, another snack, then dinner should be around 500 calories or so give or take. Always eat AFTER your workout for your body to refuel on energy. For example, I workout at 5:30a Mon, Wed,…

Heyy I'm a working mom of twin girls, going to school part-time, and an avid exerciser. My goal is to lean down to increase my fitness performance rather than just lose weight. After my girls were born I weighed 168 (I'm only 5'1") but now, about 1.5yrs after getting back into exercise, my weight varies between 134-139. I…
