Hi Sweetie :)

do intervals instead of one long steady run. Push hard for 1 minute, walk for a minute ... etc. Look up HIIT.

I did a crunch the other day and forgot how much they suck. But I do love working abs, so I do a lot of variations of sit ups, planks ...etc . Honestly though, like everyone said, you'll get the definition from proper diet. I just work abs because I like the wotkout. Here's something stupid to add lol: before I went into…

work on your back muscles

arent you the girl who posted "if you dont have something nice to say ... stfu? Again you make my point January. OP would do well to follow Jo Rocka.

Sorry but you'll get nowhere fast with a defeatist attitude. It might be too cold to walk to the gym if it's below 0, but it's not too cold to get there.

I like wearing pencil skirts with heels. Can't help but feel a little sexy in that.

this this this. Honestly, small changes aren't going to cut it (literally). You have to make a change, a big change, or you're just going to coast along getting no where.

HIIT

If this guy sends me a FR, I'm going to cry.

hahahaaaaahhahaaa

I think it counts! But then you're sporting a trucker cap. Young, dark hair, muscly, under 6', nice jawline, humor ...

I'm not sure I can describe it the way he did, but the ball puts pressure on the forearm and that allowed me to use my wrists. My tendonitis was in the forearms & wrists. Splints were fine during the day (and night, but I refuse to sleep in them). But lifting required that band and nothing else. It's important to note that…

awwww bb I hope you get responses. People might think this is about something else with that subject line lol. I've not "blown out" from lifting, but pregnancy brings out the roids. Prep H ftw. I'd talk to your dr about when you can lift again. I'm gonna guess this could be a reoccurring problem unfortunately. Good luck =)

Go to a sports dr for this. BTDT. My doc gave me permission to lift but certain exercises were out temporarily. I had been wearing splints, but he had me wear this to workout: You can get these bands as any drug store or Target ... etc. and it was MUCH MUCH MUCH better. Not these!…

I'll do your abs lol to the OP: all different variations of weighted sit ups, twisted and reg, plank, knee slaps while in plank, some pilates core exercises, bicycle crunches, weighted bridge and hip thrusts (more for glutes but work the abs) ... etc.

Most people who run this track say the same thing about shin splints. Not sure what it is, but we all can't be wearing the wrong shoes. Where are you getting your information?

what type of workout is it?

Not entirely. I don't get shin splints unless I run a certain indoor track. Any other surface is no problem.

I cant find a decent video on youtube right now, but you just stand on a tennis ball barefoot and rub your foot back and forth on the ball. It will hurt like hell. Then do the other foot. You can also rub your inner lower leg with the ball (or a foam roller I suppose). Do this before & after a run. Then do it while…

you might want to go to a running store to get fitted properly. I can tell you the only thing that helped my splints was running a tennis ball along the arch of my foot so hard that it nearly made me cry. Best thing ever for SS. Good luck!

oh yum! TY

Bret Conteras and walk/run whatever steep hills. A big butt needs strong thighs so walk/run in 2 foot water when you can. I know some of my suggestions are different but I've got the butt =)

3 months after I reached my goals and was thoroughly enjoying my hard work, I was diagnosed with cancer. I did battle for 2 and a half years. My arms only moved at 30 & 40%. Sometimes my only workout was walking to the mailbox. But I never gave up. The mental exercise of keeping focused on the future is just as important…

Maybe that respect ought to begin with women who make comments like this. Calling someone a tramp for the way they dress is so 1920s. Who knows to what extent they respect themselves. Not your business. Nor is it your business to judge them.

um, monitor/screen adjustments FTW.

I see you've never heard of global warming :wink: RIP Spock.

Honestly, what the heck is wrong with people? I get these kind of put downs once in a while from men I'd never even spit at, much less talk to. I truly think they're just hateful awful people.

Did he meet with an untimely demise?? :worried:
