Ditto!! I met 3 of my best friends in the gym!! We communicate all day long, text, call.. whatever and we always bring up exercise at some point and not one of us has an annoying thought.. Not on my end anyway.. LOL

No matter what your passion... exercise, photography, the opposite sex... it's only natural to talk about what makes you happy, motivated, and confident! Don't let others get you down, only YOU can control the way they make you feel... Talk about whatever you want!!! Exercising is a sore subject FOR MOST and I believe the…

Got them at Wal-Mart, nothing to fancy or expensive.. it get's the job done... paid think $30 for the vest and $10 for the set of ankle weights... I would love to know your results!! :happy:

I recently added a weighted vest and ankle weights to wear while doing my entire workout whether it be a strength training routine or Cardio... I was stuck at a plateau... I had only lost 10lbs. .. so I added the weight back on (kinda took the concept from Biggest Loser when they add the weight they lost and run around the…

I am a 38DD and I am also a big fan of the Shock Absorbers... another key thing is to look at your running form, the better form you have the easier it will be on both your front and your back... I found a running guide through Runners Magazine on the internet, good luck!!

I had only lost 10lbs. and I was stuck already.. so I added the weight back on (kinda took the concept from Biggest Loser when they add the weight they…

If you have a HRM and know how many calories you have burned per some many min. I believe there is a place to input your own workout data... but if not a good comparison would be the high impact aerobics.

I bought a weight watchers digital scale, you are able to log in your height and age and it calculates your weight, BMI in both pounds and %, Bone Mass %, and water weight %... I am not using weight watchers but have found the scale to be most helpful when it comes to tracking my success. With that being said the %'s are…

I am a personal trainer and certified nutritionist and I have seen the type your step sister is... Actually I'm training a girl right now, who is the exact same way... this is what I'd do, take a break from busting your *kitten* so hard in the gym... if she want's to go out that's fine, you pick the restaurant and order…

1. Last night I received the best compliment, my husband called me "The Workout Warrior" - woke up this morning still with it on my mind!! :wink: 2. My beautiful daughter WILLINGLY gave me a hug and kiss before I was off to work this morning! (She's only 16 months so it's a bit of a task at times.. LOL) :love: 3. My hubby…

They are great workouts... if you can stick with it... depending on the type of workout warrior you are and what styles you are comfortable with.. I absolutely cannot motivate myself to do a home DVD workout!! I have tried and failed several times to do P90X.. I just can't stick with it at home.. so my modification (sense…

Same here.. I haven't in the past been much of a runner but now I'm finding it much easier! So what' the plan? I usually run 4-5 Days a week now mostly on a treadmill.. every once in a while on a trail... I don't know much about the Nike+ Challenge but I'm a quick learner.. Count me in!

I have P90X, I just can't get into it, I don't do well with home workouts... I feel like I have to be in a gym to get any kinda of effort from myself for a good workout... I guess being there holds me accountable... I am a personal trainer so that part is kind of a hit and miss... I can train myself, I would just like to…

In the past, I have actually been diagnosed with an eating disorder (about 6 years ago).. I was overweight according to all BMI charts.. I was 5'1" and weight 155 lbs. (obese for my height), because of this I found myself avoiding food, obsessive exercising, and focusing my whole life around what to eat and what NOT to…

One legged squats target the outer quad. and also abs are used for balance and stability... front loaded sumo squats are awesome.. they target the inner thigh and hips flexors and force stability through the quads. I prefer lying hamstring curls to a seated curl.. just because you get more of a burn and I find I tend to…

Spin is great, the more you do it the more you'll love it, no worries! I'm kinda on a HIIT Circuit Routine right now with some Cardio sprint and incline intervals... I'm trying to stay motivated by changing things up and keep my body from being stuck in this rut! It's worked so far and I love it!
