  • Hi Zoe, Glad to hear that you are off to a great start, keep it up! Feel Free to add.
  • Insanity 8/12/13 SWITCH KICKS: 92 POWER JACKS:35 POWER KNEES: 47 POWER JUMPS: 28 GLOBE JUMPS: 8 SUICIDE JUMPS: Lost count PUSH-UP JACKS: 0 <-- cannot even do 1 pushup, I held plank LOW PLANK OBLIQUE: Lost Count Ok I lost count on a couple because the kids were yelling and counting numbers so I cant compare next time.…
  • How are you doing your runs? Treadmill or outside? If your outside and have a smart phone you can download a C25K App ( I use run double) that gives you the option of prompted runs for distance or timed. If you enable GPS you can do the timed and it will still show your distance to give you an idea of how far you are…
  • You can do it! Or atleast attempt to, there is nothing wrong with starting it and if you hip just isnt up for it slow it down and try it again another day.
  • good job on moving to Wk3, let us know how it goes! I am just starting week one, and while the switch from 60 sec to 90 sec seems like it might be alright the wk 3 jump has me wondering how i can possibly get from where I am at to week 3 lvl in only 5 more runs to go. What keeps you motivated when you start feeling tired?
  • Id say just trip the mean dog walker..lol ok so maybe that is not the correct response but just ignore them. If anything as the weeks go by you will only be showing how much better your getting. I am 5'6", 170 and current smoker (starting to switch to e-cigarettes and cutting down on reg cigs). I ALWAYS turn cherry red…
  • I agree with this one ^^^. I eat during the day so i dont feel like im hungry all of the time and whatever calories I have left are for dinner, if I come up short for a decent meal at dinner then I will go for a walk or jog first to get back the calories I need. If you eat a large dinner you may not have enough time to…
  • I completed W1D1 yesterday and it was killer! I just ran through the neighborhood and we have decent hills, hot sun and plenty humidity. Everytime i almost gave up on jogging the little voice on my app would say slow down to a brisk walk... and I made it all the way through. YAY!!!
  • 7/29 SW: 170 8/30 GW: 164 (thats 1.2 lbs per week) Starting my C25K program this afternoon. August goal will be to stick with it. I have a hard time making time for myself to work out because I come home from work to my 51/2 mo old. I need to just put him in the stroller and leave within the first 30 mins of being home or…
  • I would count clean as an exercise 1 time out of every 2 weeks but it entails about 4-5 hours of cleaning at a fast pace and i live where it is about 85 degrees and 80% humidity. I will bust butt non stop for ATLEAST 4 hours keeping up a sweat but I would only log 1 hour of cleaning for exercise (25% of actual work done).…
  • Thank you for the feed back! I got the nuts because you always hear how a small amount is a healthy snack but looking on the calories and fat and how little it fills me up I am thinking fruit/veggies will probably be a better choice. I stocked up my work today with melon, apples, carrots and celery so no excuses for me!…
  • Hi Mamas! I am a new mom, with a 5 month old boy at home and I work full time. I am trying to get back down to about 150 and I weigh 173 right now. If I look at the BMI chart I really should try for 140 but I have not been under 150-148 since high school so i almost feel like i would be setting an unrealistic goal for…
