I wear a HRM during my bootcamps. They are held outside, and our 'events' Cary from week to week. My lowest burn for the hour was when we did mostly strength (it was 102* out). I burned about 400 cals that night. My highest was last week - lots of running, and sprint sets. 808 cals burned.

Bwahahaha! Koos el would sneak outta the bushes and ambush the both of em! :drinker:

make the lasanga with lean ground beef - less fat than the turkey. use low fat cheese. don't have bread. for pasta, try the Barilla Plus if it is available in your area. Much healthier, but tastes like 'regular' pasta. He'd never know the difference. If you feel you have to cook for him, make small changes to make it…

Seems to me that if you are doing the cooking, he eats what you put on the table. If he doesn't like it, he cooks his own dinner...

My biggest burn so far was a 10 mile hike with a 25 pound pack on. I burned about 3,300 cals that day.

when I tore my MCL, the only cardio I was allowed to do was stationery bike. No swimming, no walking, no regular cycling.

Cardio: 80 minutes of running, 6.2 miles No strength Diet: extra snack today - late dinner due to family obligations. Part of reason for longer run. Water was off today - I washed my bottle at work and it tasted like Palmolive all day. Not particularly motivating...

I'm new to all of this - so I don't know what I don't know? :) Gatorade - this 'could' work, but I was trying to find something that was a bit more portable, like a hard candy. Carbs - I haven't really changed my diet much since I started upping my mileage. Maybe that's part of the problem? Hitting the wall at mile 4 -…

Double post.

Cardio: 45 minutes, 412 calories, 3.6 miles No strength Under on calories, not enough water. Still not feeling 100% from my long run on Saturday. I can tell I'm dehydrated still, but have a hard time ettin my water in on 'home' days...

My first is Nov 5..

Saturday = long run day.... 7 miles. 98 minutes. 1272 calories burned. No strength on run days.... First half of run was great, second half, I hit a wall. I'm new to this endurance running, so I need to find some supplements I cam stoma h while running. Food was ok. I splurged a bit sure to my burn today. Still WAY under…

Tonight was just under 13 min per mile. I've never been super fast, but am getting better. Was running 19 minute miles 6 months ago... I was also breaking in new orthotics, which felt weird! Lol

I don't wake up in the night, but the loo is my first stop in the am?

I used to worry a ton about how I was doing compared to others. It has taken a LONG time, but I'm sort of over it. This is about you doing better for YOU! A few months ago, you couldn't finish in an hour, you've beat that. Next run, you'll do a little better, and better, and better. I was running 19 minute miles in march.…

Just see how you feel on sat. If you feel good, go for the full 12 that night. Not hard to make a game time decision. ;)

Hang in there! I started as a wogger too, and am now pacing much better and training for a half marathon! Just keep moving, try to add some faster bits to each run, and you WILL get faster. Just dont give up!!! :)

Cardio: 44 minutes running, 437 calories burned - recovery run Strength: none. Food: really good. Very happy. Lots of lean proteins, carbs and sodium under. Met my water goal.

August was my first month of Half training. I missed about 9 days due to vacations and rest. 61.2 miles total for the month!

If you have a HRM, why aren't you using it? The calories burned listed in MFP are kinda all over the map depending on the exercise. That being said, 1.25 hours of mountain biking for me yielded over 1100 calories burned...

We make a balsamic bleu cheese potato salad that is to die for! :) http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/big-daddys-grilled-blue-cheese-and-bacon-potato-salad-10000001981680/

The HRM is significantly more accurate than the machine. The HRM takes into account many more personal factors such as age, weight, gender, some use VO2 also. Those factors, combined with your acutal HR, allow it to compute an algorithm to determine your cals burned. Your HR changes based on the work your body is doing -…

looks like it sold out. :(

for 100 bucks, take it back, and buy one that has a chest strap that records your HR for the entire workout. Most peeps on here like the Polar FT4 and FT7. Both of which can be found on Amazon. I personally use the Suunto T3d, and love it. I think it is on clearance at REI still.....

Today was bootcamp day Combo strength and cardio - 66 minutes, 808 calories. Warm up - .5 mile run First set - .75 mile run, stopping every .1 mile or so to do the following: 10 dips, 10 pushups, 10 step ups each leg. Repeated the strength circuits 7 times. Second set - sprints. Jog out - about 50 yards, sprint back.…

Laser! Thank you groupon.com - gone for good!

I don't do my hair or makeup (short of thowing my hair in a pony tail), but my friends laugh at me because my workout outfits always match. I just can't stand going out for a run and not having things 'go' together. I generally match my pony holder too! :)

Based on all the posts from my runner friends, yesterday was just CRAPTASTIC all around. I don't think one person reported a good run yesterday. Moon phase? :huh:

I've used both runkeeper and the nike+ pod. Runkeeper has been more accurate than my Nike+. Over 3 miles, my nike + was off almost .3. Little too much variance for me. I love runkeeper, and it is my new go-to app!

LOVE my blender bottles. you can get them at GNC too! I have two little ones and a big one! :)
