My best piece of equipment I have found is my body weight, lots of determination and self-motivation. I have invested in much equipment (t-mill, recumbent bike, gizelle, basic weight bench, free weights, wavemaster bag for kickboxing, dvd's -I'm an infomercial dvd junkie). I do have a room dedicated to this equipment, but…

Try the men's dept for wick-away, cool comfort, workout t-shirts (short and long sleeves) ...the cut is looser than womens tops, just get a smaller size in mens. Just make sure not to get compression shirts. I got mine at Walmart in a variety of colors (cobalt blue, red, bright yellow, neon greenish yellow, light grey and…

I have a Polar ... love it. I like the chest band for a more accurate HR - and its comfortable. I used to never wear a watch when working out b/c they bother me ...however, now I love having the watch as well so I can see my numbers while working out. My chest band is mostly elastic for the body part with little plastic to…

Ghetto Booty (using this term)?? ... Really!! There is a difference between a ghetto booty and a fat butt -- JLo got a ghetto booty! All genetic, born with it and it ain't going nowhere - no matter how much exercise. Where I'm from, we keep the ghetto booty and get rid of the fat butt. I would call it a blessing.

I agree. I wear a HRM and do a Zumba class at a local community center. It is low impact and a good burn (300-400cal), however when I go to the gym, Zumba is definately high impact and I burn way more calories (700-800). A HRM will definately let you know how much you burn because your stats (age, weight, height, etc.) are…

To preface: it seems your struggle is with the fiance/boyfriend and combining 2 households with different expectations 1) if you all live together, don't make differences between the kids - you guys are a household 2) get up earlier to work out or take an exercise walk after dinner and leave the kids with him for an hour…

It really doesn't matter, but if you miss one day of logging -- you go back to day 1 on MFP - (if you want to keep your days on MFP with your workout program) ..if you miss 3 days - it will tell your friends you need encouragement ....

Jillian is a BEAST - loved having her back ... Dolvett and Bob even got a little in them too ..... Bob was quite the character when he mentioned Jillian was back ...LOL ... I liked how the show began - an audience rather than going to each hometown and surprising contestants. I was very surprised that Planet Fitness is now…

I get it in, where I can fit it in -- most often in the evenings (my hardest workouts) after work because I do not like working out in the morning (i've tried many times to do this) .... I have been know to use my lunch break for walks (not as stringent as a power walk but a decent pace) .....Saturdays/Sundays whenever the…

All the recipes given sound great .. my wonderful thing for cooking tilapia is using my George Foreman grill. I like easy, simple and fast - spray the grill with a spray oil, season the tilapia to your taste, put it on the grill, walk away until its done (approx 8-10min). With working all day, then working out - the George…
