Barre is an amazing workout I feel. It doesn't "feel" like a huge burn but for flexibility and core it is phenomenal! It's offered at my gym and I try and get there at least 1 or 2 times a week.

I'm 5'7" and 1/2. I've gone from 225 to 164. Kind of a plateau right now not due to my motivation but between snow, illness, life, etc I've not gotten to the gym as regularly as I'd like to. I'd like to lose about 10 more lbs. I don't have a picture on my computer though. Sorry! I've been at it for 2 years and the road has…

Now - I have a question for you. Do you keep the fitbit on during your workout? I ask because I always look around and wonder if anyone thinks I look stupid wearing a fitbit AND my polar watch at the same time. I'm probably just self conscious but it crosses my mind lol. I hate to take off the fitbit because I feel like…

I wear a fitbit all day for the pedometer. It was a Christmas present from the hubby and I didn't really ask for it. I wear my Polar FT7 at the gym. I did a lot of research and what I found was if you didn't have a heart rate monitor strap for your fitness tracker, it wasn't really an accurate burn for your calories. So, I…

I'm 5'7" and now I'm unsure if my goal is too high. I started at 217 lbs and my first goal was 170 (just a random number I picked), I hit that and now I'm at 166 and have now put my goal at 160. Ultimately I'd like to be around 155. I'm a larger framed woman so according to the BMI (which is kind of BS to me but I don't…

I'm 5'7" and have lost 50 lbs . I started at 220 and now floating in the upper 160's. I'd like to lose about 10 more pounds. It took me almost 2 years. I lost the first 30 or so doing a pretty rigorous diet (Ideal Protein without the coach part) and then maintained through the rest of 2013 and then in 2014 I added exercise…

Hello! I purchased my HRM about a month ago. It's a Polar FT7. I've been very pleased with it. I was looking into the FT60 as well as the Garmin Vivofit, both of which were a bit more money and ultimately out of my price range. I'm very pleased with my purchased. I simply put the chest strap on with some water right before…

I am trying desperately to lose 4 lbs to get to a random goal I set. I know it sounds dumb but whenI started my journey I picked a weight but now darn it, I want to say I made it. So I am doing crazy cardio, SL and trying to do calorie deficit. And still have 4 lbs to go :P I am a full time special ed teacher, mom to two…

My husband and I have been doing it for about 4 weeks now and it is going really well. I have lost a good bit of weight before this but no one really said much until i started this program and I now have people commenting almost daily. The SL isn't so much about looks but more about strength. We are now getting into…

I have just been logging mine with the calories burnt during my workout time BUT I'm not using it when I lift. Only when I do my cardio. I've been doing the StrongLifts 5x5 so I'm not lifting very long. For my cardio I typically burn anywhere between 600-750 calories per 50-60 minutes so what you've got sounds right but…

Well, I tried on all of my jean capri's this morning while trying to get dressed for work and I have 1 pair that fits. I put the rest in a pile for goodwill. Two sizes down from where I was! Now I wish I had the money to buy clothes to fit!

Just got mine this weekend and it is awesome! So much better than trying to get my hubby to spot me, etc.

Zumba is by far the most fun I have working out. I started taking classes in January and am addicted!!! I am a teacher and have been trying some new classes at my gym this summer but Zumba is my first love! I am trying to get my schedule all mapped out for once school starts cause that thing called work is about to cramp…

Hello! I teach students with severe communication delays with behaviors who are mostly children with autism. It's not an official autism program but could be :-) My students range from 3-6 years old. Anyway, like I said, I am a special ed teacher in MD and have been trying so hard to get focused on my fitness goals before…
