  • I make sure to cover my ears and hands. They get cold fast. Get a insulated wicking shirt or light jacket and yes cover your legs if it is going to be that cold.
  • Have you worked on your pedal stroke efficiency. Some bike shops have a compu trainer that you can train on and they can help you with your pedal stroke. A more consistent power rotation is what you are striving for. Also high quality wheels can make a difference. I am sure you are riding often and faster to try to get…
  • Wow lots of indoor cardio people. I used to bundle my kids up and go to the gym with a daycare and spend lots of money doing it. My kids got sick all the time because of the daycare too. I do like spinning classes. Spinning classes are actually how I got introduced to the sport of cycling. Now I ride at 5am with a light…
  • I did the fit test and loved it. It was defiantly hard but it was a great cardio and strength work out. I run bike and swim a lot, so my plan is to do insanity 3 times a week. Add me along with anyone else that does Insanity or runs, bikes or swims

  • Good Luck Grace. You can add me as a friend if you want. I have done WW, I agree with all the other comments. It works but so does MFP and MFP is free. I suggest adding lots of active friends and making your diary view able to your friends and then weigh in to your online friends once a week.
  • 36 and I also feel like I am in my 20s. I am in better shape than I was in my 20s though. I haven't been skinny until now since I was 10 years old. Loving being 36.

  • You can add me. I live in Nevada, and I am also looking for more friends.
  • Beachbody.com has a Brazilian Butt DVD that I hear is awesome.
  • You can add me. I have used Fitness pal for over a year now. I love it!!! I haven't had too many friends on it though and wanted to reach out and get some. I have to loose 10 more pounds and they are the hardest.
