100gm protein = 400 cal-- not really a calorie problem An extra 20-30 grams without increasing meat/fish/eggs seems tough, might be some kind of protein shake is actually what you need. Doesn't have to be whey protein. There are all sorts of veg protein powders out there too.

Reps absolutely do not equal toning. Lowering body fat % does. Lift heavy,do cardio, eat at caloric deficit. He's doing cardio with his arms, as someone above said.

Recent research points to endocannibinoids, the body's natural analog to THC, not endorphins. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20353785 http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/02/16/phys-ed-what-really-causes-runners-high/

Not impossible. Though cutting the next 5 min will be increasingly more difficult as you head towards your genetic potential/limit. I have seen many really fast runners over 40, so keep focused and good luck.

I agree with Arc, just start upping the long runs. Also don't skimp on dead lifts/squats, the extra strength in legs and back will help prevent injury.

Very difficult as far as I understand it. I think you would need to reduce weight bearing exercise on your legs. Running or cycling is just going to build your calves. During an ankle injury I flipped a stationary bike up on its handle bars and sat behind it pedaling with my arms. Some sort of upper body cardio may help,…

Snow is not as much a bother as icy roads, don't want broken wrists

Focus on upper body cardio, hand pedaling, light kettle bell work....and essentially use leg muscles as little as possible....doing this while losing weight should decrease them in size somewhat, but will probably be very difficult...most people don't want to induce muscle atrophy....that being said I really dig muscular…

I use Alive and Aware, buy them in bulk. They are in the food data base. Good stuff.

Joan Benoit 1984 Marathon time trials for the Olympics. She had arthroscopic knee surgery 17 days before. Trained by hand pedaling a bicycle suspended above her. Won the the time trials and went on to win the first women's Olympic marathon three months later

Sprints, HIIT (high intensity interval training e.g. 20sec at full out max, 40sec walk, catch breath, do them to failure) this will build your wind/make you faster. Think 2X a week, don't worry about distance only exertion. Make sure to warm up first. I agree with poster above -- get out on the road and see how it feels,…

Something to keep in mind is this: obsessives (of any stripe, golf, computers, couponers, or weight loss/fitness) are boring and annoying to non-obsessives. Anyone who's had a golf "enthusiast" try to tell them about every shot of a four hour 18 hole round, or had a computer "enthusiast" lecture for 15 minutes on gigs,…
