yes you can. the thing can cut steel. (not really but you get the idea) if you freeze the fruit you don thave to use ice cubes.

love mine but use it for more protein shakes then green juices. i like to add almond milk, scoop of peanut butter, ice water and then some protein powder. i tried a few green juice/fruit blends but i more of a protein shake kinda gal
-
i love walden farms and have tried a ton of their items. have to say their amazing mayo and dressings are amazing have tried the peanut spreads but i prefer real peanut butter their pancake syrup is great but more thick and less syrup=ey than i would like. i also like their bbq. not a fan of their ketchup

anyone can add whey protein to their diets. you may be reading things that say you should drink more protein to reach macros if you are aiming to keep or add more lean muscle. either way, anyone can drink whey protein.

carbs in the AM = energy for the day. go with some egg whites paired w/ 1/2 cup of oatmeal and scoop of peanut butter. wash down with black plain coffee
-
Yes. Anytime your are expending/burning calories you should track. I can burn up to 400 calories in one hour of heavy leg day training. it all depends on your goals. I dont eat back calories i burn.
-
two days on, one off.
-
Depends on goals. To build and grow muscle i do heavier weight with lower reps. average of 5-8 max if you are aiming for more of an endurance lift/cardio then 10-12 though if i need cardio i go do cardio and lift heavy when i want to lift weights :)
-
Depends on your goals. Right now i am looking to lift more weight, less reps. for me at 109 i deadlift close to 135lbs 5 reprs for 4-5 sets When I aim to do a bit more of a cardio lift during my cutting season i drop to BW and do more reps
-
I do them with dumb bells but also started to do with a 20 or 30 pound barbell also. def targets on the push up on the bum and quads!
-
i can only do front with arm cross method, great job!
-
I do these and boy do i work up a sweat doing them!!!
-
i started these last week too. it takes alot to keep straight up with the bar over head. right now i can do 5 reps with 40lb barbell only
-
Maybe once, but most of the days I am going in to weight train so cardio is an after thought and i cant lift on an empty stomach. When I start doing cardio more as I cut I do find time to go in 1-2 days a week just to do plyos and cardio.

Hey girl...

QFT

It's important to allow for rest days especially as you increase the weights. Rest days are just as necessary to muscle growth as the actual training day is.
-
i like goblet as well but only if i have steps or boxes the same height to allow for me to go lower into the squat.
-
that sounds about right. i can do 40lbs in plates on a 45lb bar in front and do 90lb in plates and 45 lb bar for back. thanks for letting me know im doing ok then :)
-
that is the one we are doing this year. can't wait to try that one. i did the super at the mountain creek and those mountains sucked, but are nothing compared to the vermont i hear
-
agree, wish i wore knee covers for that part, took me two weeks to heal from those cuts and bruises and some people got weird rashes and sores after. that crawl was longer than i thought and hurt like hell drudging through!
-
I've done the spartan, tough for sure! there are different types though with varying length and number of obstacles. none are "easy" but the sprint is the shorter one. i'm going for my trifecta this year!
-
ouch. yes even getting a half pull up takes time, but its realy rewarding when you get to add more!
-
the cardio is going to help to remove the layer of fat over the muscle you have. but in order to build the muscle you will need to do weight training exercises to build them up. as mentioned lunges are great, squat jumps, box step ups, squats, hamstring curls, leg press, all of these will help you build up your muslce.
-
let us know how it goes. took me a few times to get comfortable with it. now that i have the form and hold down i have to slowly work up my weight for those. my shoulders have a harder time with front squats.
-
For me the biggest challenge is pull ups. Took me 6 months to get up to 3 full with no assistance. every time i do them i work toward getting one more in.
-
Based on your post I think you could benefit from one. If you were going balls to the wall and not getting the results you wanted you may not have been training for your goals or eating for them. A trainer is also good to help you learn proper form so you do the exercises correctly for the intended results. So many people…
-
polar is great, only one to really track your heart rate and tell you average calories burned. most others track your activity. if for example you lift weights a fit bit won't help you know what you're burning while lifting. so it all depends on your goals and activity.
-
When i am lifting heavier i stop cardio. lifting is my cardio. when i begin to cut i add more cardio and lifting more reps which is more cardio.
-
I aim for time. Weight training for 45 minutes to 60 minutes. that is my cardio. if i sweat i am happy!
