I love my suunto, had a polar and they are nice but the suunto are in a class of their own. Better screen, menu everything. Plus, most models upload to computer to their site which is really nice way to track everything with all the graphs you could want. also, easy battery change and very comfy straps. I think they just…

So much fun, just did the Miami color run and had a blast. tons of great energy. there were over 10,000 participants and I did not feel crowded at all, well at least not until the end when we all threw our color at the same time. I could not even see my hands in front of me. I highly recommend this event, lots of great…

Hi, had mine out at 33 and it was bad for the first 2 days, okay and not a big deal for the next 4-5 and then bad all over again 6-9 or so when the scabs start coming off. biggest thing is to keep hydrated so they dont get crusty and painful. I was drinking non stop and loved popsicles!! the liquid pain meds will get you…

I dont think we should. i tend to agree that if you got away with it at the time, then you cannot change history. learn from it and move on. I just dont like how other leagues/governing bodies bend the rules to their needs when it comes to this. I actually dont care if lance took everything under the sun, he did the near…

Those fasting glucose numbers are high, not normal. If they were to be post prandial numbers then they are normal range.

Vitamix and a tie for second between my knives and sous vide circulator.

I have the ambit, it's a all in one so don't need the add ons. I really love the website and find the tracking and programming to be far above any other site. I have had polar and Garmin etc. the m4 is really good hrm but its just that. I believe you also need the USB device to upload your data. The extras work well and…

Shuttle run, kettle bell swings, bear crawl and dumbbell push ups/row was the main event. Some jump rope, burpees and farmers wlk got the blood flowing. Finished with some nice stretching/yoga.

I love it, but it's not a matter of just sticking it on. I have been to conferences and instructed on how to apply it correctly by folks who have extended education on the matter and would still not feel 100% applying myself. Kind of strange to see it for sale just sitting on a shelf. Just cutting it is an art form and…

Mayans had no leap year, it's a modern day invention so the end already came and went a few years ago.

I make a leek/zucchini carpaccio that is amazing. Shave the two and arrange on a plate then douse in lemon juice and drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper. Let it marinate for a few hours in fridge and it's amazing!

I don't really love running yet, but I want to. I never run more than 400m at a time and do mostly sprints and a crossfit type workout. Ran my first 5k with ease last week. I have done some reading that sprint work increases endurance etc and feel that for me it has. I want to go longer distances and know that I will have…

Roasted, but I use the fresh baby ones. They are about a quarter the size and so tasty.

Great fishing in RI! Salt water you are going to be hard pressed getting something other than a "kiddie" set for that price. I have a pretty mid level nothing special reel that was $200 not including rod. Box stores will carry ugly sticks of several varieties and they are definitely good for the money less than 75 or so.…

love it, I have the best coaches! I am away for a few days and miss working out in a group. I just cannot muster the motivation alone as I do with my fellow crossfitters.

If you have an iPhone the life proof case and armband is just amazing. It's not confined to a pouch on your arm, rather it is clipped in and pops out in a second. Not to mention I can swim with the combo so sweat is certainly not an issue.

Wow! Dcrainmaker has some great reviews, better than I could ever say. Thanks for that info. Just a FYI if you are looking to save for the ambit. The software/firmware is always updated and the newest release fixed his few hangups he had about the watch plus added a few features. I really like how it has free updates to…

What he did for the cancer community is simply amazing and it's sad people cannot differentiate his cycling with his humanitarian work. I also don't care if he took every illegal performance enhancing drug known, winning that many races in a row is nothing short of amazing. His natural ability is just that good. I am not…

Sometimes I use as a daily watch, it's very comfortable. I also swim laps with it, hardly ever losing connectivity with chest strap which I hear is a problem with other brands. Many gps watches also do not even have the heart monitor function so make sure to look. The ambit has really easy presets for any activity so just…

Garmon is good but suunto ambit is the best! Had a forerunner and thought I loved it until I upgraded to the ambit. The web app that it uses is awesome as is it's functionality and battery life, nothing comes close in my opinion. I also like that it looks like a watch, not a heart monitor. I use it every day training, as…

Miami 5k bright and early! Cannot wait.

Post workout it's best to use an isolate as it absorbs really fast. I also love a small bedtime treat of casein as it makes me full all night and enough in morning to get moving. My wife loves the casein in the morning on the road to work. Sometimes we mix in with some berries. Never was a sucker for supplement s but…

Training. Well, most of my events were in the north east before I moved so the courses were mountains. Lots of hiking and hill sprints and squats to get legs ready. Really fit people were cramped on first climb so being lose is paramount. Now that I am in Miami, I focus on running and my main workout is crossfit. Grip…

Hi, I have done both several times and prefer the team spirit and organization/planning of tough mudder so much more. They are both challenging and fun, however tough mudder brings everyone much closer and I find people to be generally much friendlier. The spartan is very much a race and can be completed as an individual.…

Wod tomorrow has buy in and out of 20 buprees! lovely. i log with a HRM, much easier than labeling everything.

I am obsessed with my suunto ambit!! I have used garmin and polar but the ambit comes out way ahead. it has a great web app that logs everything and maps out training and routes. For a gps watch, it is also the most stylish. You can change all the settings right at the watch on the trail, or connect to computer and do it…

N.o explode is a favorite for effect but pain to mix I find. You also cannot bottle it up for use on the go, the cap will explode it fizzes a lot. Otherwise it's my favorite. I used to use jack and liked it. Just started amphalean beast a few days ago and love it. Mixes awesome, tastes great and reasonably priced. Will…

Love vanilla but decided to branch out and try mocha cappuccino yesterday. This is going to be my go to flavor from now on, so tasty!

i really like Optimum Nutrition as it mixes so easy. Was always a vanilla guy but just received my order of mocha cappuccino today and love it with almond milk.

Nice beast badge! I did the first one in 2011, what an event huh?!!
