I started cycling about a year ago and have lost over 50lbs so far. I think it's an awesome way to burn calories without beating up your body. I have since added different types of exercise just to keep from becoming bored. However if weight loss is your goal high intensity is not always needed. Fat burn is more effective…

I'm not familiar with this particular one but I have used one similar. I used cyclemeter to train for a 5k mud ru, the Volkslauf. I starts out from zero running and takes you to 5k in 10 weeks. It may have cost a few bucks but it's been worth it. One of the benifits is it uses the GPS to track and log your runs, cycles,…

2013 goals... goal weight, 190 Century ride.. (100 miles) improve my time in the Volkslauf mud run (5k) Try hunting, (never done it) apply for CCW Vacation in at least one new place. Thats pretty much it. March will be my 1 year anniversary since starting down the road towards fitness, looking forward to many more healthy…

Very nice, it's easy to forget what comes first in this busy life. Good luck and God Bless. James

I havn't lost anything for about a month and a half. This seems to be normal for a few weeks maybe a month. I'll stall at a weight then drop 2-3 pounds at once. I've never gone up though? and although its not much when your expecting a drop and you see a couple of pounds more it makes you wonder. Heck, it's all pretty much…

Reading the article, thanks for the link. james

As far as excersize goes I really just try to stay moving, eliptical in the morning for about 20-25 minutes, and either cycling (10 - 12 miles) or running (2 miles) in the afternoon (one or the other at least 3 times a week). If I'm free on the weekends I will take the road bike out and do between 30-60 miles depending on…

I haven't really taken off, but I don't usually work out on Sundays. As far as excersize goes I really just try to stay moving, eliptical in the morning for about 20-25 minutes, and either cycling (10 - 12 miles) or running (2 miles) in the afternoon (one or the other at least 3 times a week).

Thanks, I think the hard part is ive seen pretty steady results for a while now and the lack of it now is somewhat demoralizing. I realize it's there, I just need to stay motivated. Mentally convincing myself that fitness/health is the priority not the scale. In that case I feel pretty good, but if there is something I can…

Ok, quick update.... New cycling goal is 300+ miles per month, and I've signed up for the Bakersfield Volkslauf race (mud run). I've been running 3 miles, 3 times a week now to get ready for the race. Dropped a few more pounds and getting close to my goal weight, of course now that I see that It can be done, I'll change…

I don't reply much, just occasionaly get on and read some of the success stories for motivation. If your looking for reply's ask questions, as near as i can tell everyone seems to have answers. Choosing the right one would now be your problem.. lol Have a blessed day, James

Great job, Ive got about 20 more to go, thanks for the insperation! James

ok, posting pictures was like pulling teeth, but I think I got it... now the weight loss ticker may take a minute.lol BTW I started this process less than 4 months ago. Be Blessed, James
