Your body doesn't know WHAT TIME IT IS..but it does know what to do with the calories..try listening to MFP..even though I had lost 2-3 lbs a wk from wk 1-5...I gained 20 lbs in wk 6 of MFP bc I had not eaten bk any of my exercise calories.. I then took MFP advice, went to organic food, cut back on sodium, increased my…

Karin is right..but first step..REST IT..discontinue exercising until you can figure out the severity of the injury! THEN, ...IMMEDIATELY ICE! and IBUPROFEN..this helps with inflammation.. suggested first 24hrs of injury 20mins ea. setting.. always treat an pain..as though it is an injury! The body responds best this way..…

My advice for the OP, if you feel like you are injured you shouldn't even hesitate to go see the doctor. If you haven't been exercising regularly you may have actually hurt yourself. If you have been exercising regularly it could be an overuse injury which is very common in the knees. If it is actually swollen you should…

I work hard toward a certain BURN #..depending on whether or not I make it in that given amnt of time...I will usually (not ALWAYS)..but I try to cool down then STRETCH in to a normal HR, or close anyway...but never my resting HR (that could take me another hour or so!) However if I am doing 2 WOs at diff. times of the…

Wow! These look great! Will have to add to next week's shopping list!

O and another great way to detox/boost the immune system is MASSAGE..try an ABDOMINAL massage..or do it yourself.. If you have a professional AbMassage..as for PEPPER essential oil to be put on the abdomen and lymph nodes..you can always invigorate those on your own to as simple as self massage Deep UPWARD strokes from…

I like to eat my detoxifying elements:) a few of my faves are red pepper flakes, jalapenos, cabbage, spinach, turnip greens...turnips..cinnamon hot tea..flax seed in salads most anything really;)

Hi dear, massage therapist here...let me take your hand sweetie! If you can possibly afford a massage, do it..go with a swedish.

Isn't this just the way THINGS GO..when you are making any type of CHANGE..YOU DO what YOU NEED TO DO, for YOURSELF...YOU ARE SHOWING YOUR STRENGTHS and DETERMINATION..we are NEVER to PUT a STUMBLING BLOCK in FRONT OF ANOTHER..but to be HELPFUL, LIFTING EACH OTHER UP! Do what you need to do, make time for your partner, our…

Are you getting all of your water in, and watching your sodium intake? Most importantly, are you EATING 70-75% of your EXERCISE CALORIES that you BURNED OFF? Keeping a close eye on how many calories you burn with a HRM?

Season's change, people change...its only natural..we all appeal to fitness..just how intensely?? Intensely enough to make a change for ourselves..affecting our mind/body image?

First of all, sounds like your friend just wants to spend some time with you..a great time to celebrate your accomplishments and possibly inspire..There is no doubt your fears and lack of courage from restraining yourself from making poor choices..But instead of setting yourself up with doubting thought..with your waitress…

Vickie and MagicClaire are exactly RIGHT!.. (I am a Massage Therapist) Always use ice after ANY strain or sprain...even after a good hard workout..stretch, then ice..THEN HEAT ...then REPEAT ..do this until you feel no heat coming from that particular muscle when you touch it. In this case..It really depends on exactly…

Curious as to whether or not you've seen a doctor..are you feeling pain or discomfort on both sides of the knee, more in the origin area of the hamstrings or quads?
