  • me too and my foot doctor said it happens to him too... wierd
  • Your hrm should be more accurate than your treadmill hrm as it has your age, height, weight, female/male and the typical treadmill hrm doesn't. I heard that the chest strap hrm is more accurate, so I got one of those:) Checking your heart rate should not affect your total cal burn reading, however, I cant vouch for the non…
  • And I do log when I do hardcore yard work as well, IE mowing our very large yard with a push mower, thats a workout. I do that on top of my normal workout and I did where my hrm and in an hr I burned 350 cal, thats def worth noting:)
  • Ya me too. I only log my "exercise" not daily chores or work. I do childcare in my home I dont do much sitting at all, chasing kids, up and down from the floor, meal prep, cleanup, house chores, playing in the yard or even standing in the yard...etc. I feel like if I logged those and ate more because I was doing that stuff…
  • I have no doubt that will speed up your weightloss. Any/every time I give it up I lose more quickly. Sometimes it has to do with just the alcohol but sometimes it also has to do with what goes with that, the water retention or snacking (loss of inhibitions) and lack of exercise due to a not so great feeling in the…
  • And also what everyone else is saying about strength training, muscle building exercises, the more muscle you have the more cal you burn... pretty simply put.
  • I am 5' 1 and I too weigh 130 and the scale barely budges up or down for 2 yrs now... Ive been trying to lower my body fat as well and am frustrated. What I found to be working just recently is burning anywhere from 400-1200 cal a day and eating 1500 cal or more with more cal burn and each meal eating carb, prot, and fat…
  • My hrm says I burn 700 JUST with the p90x plyo, I bet some days you burn way more than 700 with plyo and a run, thats awesome!
  • In order for my very small frame to lose weight I absolutely have to have at least a 500 cal burn most days. I bought a heart rate monitor last year to get a better idea/more accurate gauge of how much I was burning and while its not exact (so I dont count the whole number my hrm gives me) because I couldn't afford the…
  • What they all said and I def recommend it as well! I didnt buy the whole program so Im doing my own thing with regard to nutrition basically trying to eat clean. I would recommend if you want to see the best results possible to also follow the diet, at least the first time around:) good luck!
  • I use a heart rate monitor so I add my own... you might get a heart rate monitor. Or use the circuit training entry... I burn about 550 doing core synergistic but everyone's body is different.
  • You could try p90x too:) I vouch for that one! You can find it WAY cheaper on ebay or amizon.
  • Hi, i struggle with this myself... I wear a heart rate monitor and count my cal burned that way but I know even with that its not 100% accurate, the same with the cal burned with this program. So what Ive tried to do is count only some of the cal burned, leaving room for error as at my weight and with my goals every cal…
  • I agree, I think it means shes not starving herself into a size 0 and she should probably be somewhere inbetween where she was and where she is now for a target weight...but who am i to judge right? I was surpised at her weight gain, I dont pay attention to celebrity gossip or smut mags... she is still a very beautiful…
  • Hi, I too struggle with this... what I found was up the workouts, both strenght training and cardio as well as change the foods Im eating. I noticed a dif right way, its just sticking to that. I exercise at least 5 days a week and try to stick to the calorie restriction but found it really helpful to watch the sodium…
  • I wouldnt worry about it, unless of course youre doing it during the night...:) There is plenty of jumping around during the plyo video, one of my favorites. Most of the others are jump free:) I enjoy the p90x video series a lot. Its perfect for my needs. I am enjoying seeing/feeling my body get stronger and my endurance…
  • Im running a 10k in the am before the thanksgiving festivities and need to hydrate well today! Thank you for the reminder!!! Happy Thanksgiving:)
  • I too need a higher calorie breakfast or I feel hungry all day, I also workout quite a bit some days and need more. I am going to eat 1 large egg, 1 large egg white, .5 of 1/4 cup shredded cobly monterey jack cheese, and three slices canandian bacon on a whole wheat english muffin:) It totals between 300-400 cal. Thats a…
