Sumo squats will hit your inner thighs more. =)

I prefer them natural, but if they were not noticable, then I guess it would be ok. If they look like bolt on boobies it is not sexy.

Many people will tell you to use a HRM while strength training, but to be honest, it is rather useless. A HRM is not accurate for strength training since the calculation it uses is for traditional cardio. Your best bet is to take what MFP says you are burning and log it. Then, set your calorie goal and log EVERYTHING you…

You forgot to add "fishing" on Wednesday at 03:53 PM! I am kidding.. Great job! =)

I know I am going to get blasted for this, but I am finding this thread a little weird. Most women get so upset about "men sexualizing breasts" yet there have been a bunch of posts saying "not around kids". Hello? Kids are the ones who remember what they are actually for!!!! If you mean "teenaged boys" when you said kids,…

HOT!! Great job!!

This can happen for a boat load of different reasons and, unfortunately, it will probably take some time to figure it out. The first thing I would do is try to identify if it is the same time (or close) every day and EXACTLY what you are doing (or just did) when it starts. This can be as simple as sitting on your couch or…

You can do it.. Just create a small goal, achieve it, make a new one, lather, rinse, repeat. You will get there!

Well, some of his list is true, some is very misleading and possibly could border on ignorance. I will give an example or two: He says "You don't need to avoid white bread or potatoes or beans or rice or _____________ (insert food here) unless you've got an intolerance/allergy/medical condition.".. This is true, but…

In your friend request, you asked about Soy. No, that is not the same thing. They call it "milk" but it isn't. That is not to say you don't have issues with it because it is in the top 20 of common food allergies. If you don't consume dairy (cheese, milk, ice cream, etc) then start with wheat and see if that helps. If you…

You can probably lose 10, especially if you are retaining water though inflammation. You won't lose 10 pounds of fat in 11 days so you might just want to adjust how you are looking at this. I would suggest eliminating wheat and dairy for the 11 days and ensure you are drinking a lot of water even though that seems…

That is not true, but for the sake of someone worried about getting "hugely muscular" it is. He will never have to worry about getting huge (or even big) while in a calorie deficit. =)

If you are just looking to stay fit, then create a plan where you push and pull across the same plane with all compound muscle movements. In your routine, you are going to end up with shoulder problems since both a push up and pull up will rock your shoulders forward and you have no countering muscle work. For instance,…

Can you give us an idea of the type of music you are looking for (preferences) and what kind of tempo? Here are a couple to get you started if you are in the mood for an old school electronica set: Warmups: 5:30 - High Roller by Crystal Method ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQ9Wj8GyrDU ) Set Tunes: 4:16 - The Revolution…

You all look amazing. Great job!

Great Job!

I asked Michael Bolton what kind of underwear he was wearing one time. He wouldn't answer. Too uppity. Didn't even crack a smile. His bodyguard thought it was pretty funny though.

You look like you could be your own mother in these pictures! You look SOOOO much younger now!

I am in the 9am dash in September.

I am not worried about it.. But that is just me. =)

IMHO, that is a complete joke. If he wants to see how hard it is for a REAL overweight person to lose weight, he would have to stay fat for a LONG time. He was fat, but had all of that muscle under the fat. Losing the weight for him was a million times easier because he didn't have to worry about balancing the low calorie…
-
Oh yeah. I do that too. Actually, I love to use frozen fruit in yogurt as a summer desert. It is awesome!
-
If you say the words "lose weight", then starve yourself, you WILL lose "weight". I prefer to lose fat and I am not ashamed to say I have fat to lose. As soon as you start looking at it as losing fat, you will take the time to understand how fat is used and why it is stored. All the people who want to tell you to eat less…

If you have a Trader Joe's nearby, check out their "just a handful" line of trail mix packets. I LOVE the cranberry, cashew & almond one. As a side note: maybe your "unintended consequences" are telling you something. If the fruit and veggies gave you gas or the runs, don't stop eating them as a snack. Just reduce the…

I think people make this more complicated that it needs to be. Think of it this way: your body needs fuel to survive and will get that fuel from somewhere. If your body knows there will always be fuel from an outside source, it will use fat when there is a deficit, especially if you are active, because it is inefficient to…

I take a couple of tablespoons diluted in water. I also will add a tablespoon or two when I make a green drink. As someone mentioned above, there is some concern for the enamel on my teeth so I always swish my mouth out with clean water afterwards.

Your top is falling off

By my calculations, 1000 calories means you can have 9 Bud Light bottles and still be under your cals for the day. =) Kidding, of course... ... or am I?

She could just post links instead of using the img tag and it would pass the guidelines, right?

Who were you talking to? It looks like Mockingbird and JP are doing the same one, but I don't think anyone has signed up for the September race yet.
