i think the rule of thumb in normal weather is to hydrate about 1ounce every 10 min. in hot weather more. and what everyone else said

if you put in the miles for prep, then it will be cake. just make sure you stretch and relax after first day. when I say stretch I do not mean 10 sec touch my toes. a good 1/2 hour or more depending on your flexibility more if your not. just google stretching for bicyclists youtube should provide ample instruction. get…

that's based on 1950's myth. modern twist to that thought is to stop 2--3hours prior to sleep. that being said, I will eat until I go to sleep. In fact I drink a protein shake every night prior to sleeping. http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/23003124/ns/today-today_health/t/eat-your-way-good-nights-sleep/#.T4Zacqv8vKA

when mother nature knocks me down. so I haven't quit yet. instead of riding on the open road with traffic I'll switch to the bike trail. I would rather be outside fighting the wind than inside on a trainer most days....

you wont if you drop those fools. you know the saying its not the bike its the motor.... ride smart and let the hammerfest begin.

I've done plenty of centuries 100+miles. I signed up for about 9 this year. Easiest will probable be the "ride to montauk" I average about 17mph on that ride its pretty much FLAT... All others with elevation change of 6000ft or more I average about 14-15mph.

what she said + look red cleats have 9deg float grey cleats have 4.5deg float speedplay pedals will still have doulble sided clipping and speedplay zero has adjustable float. other speedplay pedals have up to 22deg float i think.

when I was dx w d2, I went to emergency room because I thought I was having a asthma attack, 6 hours later they said you know you have diabetes, right? they said I had a bg of 457. I started out on 3000mg of metformin and 30mg glyburide (sp?) I hit the gym hard; 2hrs a day doing cardio and yoga determined to shock my body…

you can stop it after your done with exercise, whrn you hit the locker room (what I do) or wait until your HR gets to your starting HR. I don't wait because I get all sweaty and don't want to wait to take it off.

HIIT high intensity interval training. 5 min: warm up, 5min: with moderate walk/jog that gets you to 60% of max HR 1min: 80-90% HR 5min: with moderate walk/jog that gets you to 60% of max HR 1min: 80-90% HR Repeat "x" amount of times 5min: cool down

yes it a good burn. you won't cheat yourself if you coast or rest.

"All foods and beverages can fit into a healthful, balanced diet as long as portion sizes are controlled and priority is given to meeting nutrient needs as well as getting regular physical activity." quote is from article Finding balance: understanding how calories work from the international food information council…

or get a better scale. I have a Omron HBF-514c It tells me Body Fat Percentage, Body Mass Index (BMI), Skeletal Muscle, Resting Metabolism, Visceral Fat, Body Age and Body Weight. Your body composition changes constantly. Of those measurements, I care most of the body fat percentages, I don't care about my weight, and if…

make sure you know proper form and technique before you go "heavy" if you go to a gym ask one of the personal trainers to show you how to use equipment properly. or use the web to find how-to's. bodybuilding.com has plenty of videos of exercises.

anyone can add me too!

yep I've lived in nassau, suffolk, queens, manhattan, westchester and putnam counties. basically lower ny

You know your body composition changes throughout the day? your weight WILL fluctuate throughout the day. You should weigh yourself the same time, I weigh myself first thing in the morning before I eat. that way your body composition is consistent. (best time) You can do the research but through mine I found that Polar had…

no offense but every time I hear "i don't want to bulk up" from a woman.....GRRR women "usually" don't produce enough testosterone to bulk up. you need to push yourself, if its easy your not taxing your muscles enough to burn fat. when I see women at the gym all dolled up, they are there to socialize. you need to sweat.to…

the last (3) days: 516 min / 4840 calories burned

I suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder. When I feel down I use my Light box. I feel better after a few min. Research light therapy for depression. It might help mood swings.

sure! I was diagnosed later in life as well.

go ahead and feel guilty, BUT try to eat them. if you eat them they will keep you on track for your goal whether its loosing or gaining "X" amount of weight per week. if you dont eat them just make sure you eat the same amount of calories consistently. Don't bounce day to day. 1600 one day then next 1200 then 2000 the next…

they say you burn more calories if you work out first thing in the morning. I'm not a morning person so I probably will never do it. But my colleagues who do workout before work say they have more pep throughout the day and have a easier time falling asleep earlier.

I have prAna clothes for yoga, got mine from Sierra Trading Post.

use a food scale so you get every gram of food and not one more. you use a HRM so you can log the exact calories burned and not guestimate. when you get a scale that tells you body fat, visceral fat, BMI, skeletal muscle, resting metabolism, body age, and body weight.

work out with your child, instead of putting him/her down before you workout. check this video out. I'm sure there are others on youtube for inspiration.. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xe3m74_tacoma-personal-trainer-2-year-old_people
