  • Honestly I didn't really do too much differently. Only thing I really did was push a little harder with the weights and added like 2 more sprints to my HIIT I do after my workout.

  • Yea really if you can run a 10k its not that big of a stretch to run a 1/2 marathon. Only takes a bit more training to get your endurance up. The biggest problem I always ended up having was hitting the "runners wall" I found Jelly Belly sport beans and would pop a few every couple of miles and it really helped me overcome…

  • Honestly, if this is a goal you really want to set for yourself, then there is plenty of time to be fully trained by March if you are just starting to run now. Having finished a few half marathons I must say it is quite a personal accomplishment to know that you can run for that long. If you want to dedicate yourself I say…

  • Okay thank you all for the good information. I think if I just get a protein powder mix for after my workouts it should get me to the range where I need to be at. Thanks

  • Yea that is what I was wondering if its supposed to be 1g for every lb you weigh. If so that will be over double what I have been currently consuming. Also, what would be the best ideas to get that much protein. I already eat Greek Yogurt and have lean protein like chicken almost every day.

  • Have you ever tried using your rescue inhaler about 20 minutes before your workout? Do you still have problems with asthma if you do so?

  • I am currently doing a calorie deficit. However, some days I do go over but usually over a week I am under. I really suck when it comes to eating but anyway that is a different story. The smallest plates they have at the gym I go to is 2.5. Is it normal to be that much further under weight in the press than the other…

  • If its available to you where you are working out on your treadmill, I find that watching a movie really helps to keep your mind off the running and you can go a lot further because you are into the movie and not thinking too much.

  • I like to have greek yogurt with some fresh berries and an apple or bananna. Very healthy and good source of protein.
