They're alright... I'll eat them once, maybe twice a week (with lots of ketchup... I know, bad me).

I don't know the exact amount of weight I lost after I started lifting free weights in February, but it's been enough for friends and family to start taking notice, new work clothes needed to be purchased, and my collarbone to become unearthed! I had a personal trainer and he started me on basically a "starting strength"…

I was just replying to the OP who was thinking about trying Zumba. Just wanted her to know what she was getting into, that if she's looking for a dance class, it's not that, it's more of a cardio-intensive class. When I tried it, I went into it with an open mind, but I wound up not liking it because of how much of a…

I have to agree with the one person above, I didn't much like Zumba at all. I feel like I have to qualify this, I've been a figure skater all of my life and done tons of dance classes (of a wide variety of dance style) with it. I feel like Zumba was glorified line dancing. Many of the movements, to me, didn't make any sort…

Possibly she meant that it was expensive relatively speaking. Or wedding gowns are purchased MONTHS in advance, possibly her financial situation had changed drastically with a change of job that was unexpected? To the OP - All the best to you! $10 a week is a tough budget to handle, but online there's so many resources to…

London, Ontario here... Edmontonian at heart!

Personally I absolutely love my trainer. I go to the university's gym, and all the trainers that they hire are A) fully certified, B) have degrees in or are working towards degrees in kinesology/exercise science, and C) are students (who doesn't like helping out students?). I found that mine has completely motivated me to…

Can we bump this with the new season started? Personally I'm a huge(!) Nath & Fab fan (Nath's the reason why I want rocking arms!!), and I absolutely love the theme of their short dance this year, and how well everything comes together- the costumes, music the whole bit!

Hey everyone! I'm Vic, I'm 23 and been on the ice almost my entire life! Never been competitive, can barely land single jumps most days. I stopped skating for about a year and a half during university, and got myself a bad boyfriend and the whole bit... but I had to get back out on the ice. I found that one of the local…

From skating for so many years and always hanging around with other skaters, yogis and some dances and the like, I never really knew that not everyone could do that either. From what I've noticed it seems like a lot of problems some people have come from a lack of strength in the foot or around the knee. (sorry if the…

I started with a personal trainer in Feb, and I honestly haven't looked back. I had never lifted anything before and was nervous about it, but he kinda threw me right in, none of the less than 10 pound weights and no reps over 10. I wanted to build strength so he basically got me started on a Starting Strength type…

23, 5'5" Current weight: 170-ish Goal weight: 130-ish (I'm not too concerned about this though, I'm more concerned with my bf% - I'd like it to be anywhere from about 13-17%) I exercise about 2 or 3 times a week. I also figure skate, so the exercise times are adjusted depending if I have skating or not (we share the rink…

I have to second the swimming... or even skating, just relationally. I skate with an adult group ranging in age from 18-85 and levels go from beginner to former national and world-level competitors. Depending on where you are it's either really easy to find something or really hard. I'm fortunate enough to A) live in…
