I think what they are saying is that cardio at some point will stop building muscle. So if a person has a hard time losing those extra pounds. Then turning to a weight exercise will build more muscle. More muscle equals more calories burned..

My weight fluctuates as much as 5 pounds..It used to bother me, but now I'm used to it. Just keep on doing your workouts. The weight will come up. Hell, I'm only losing 3 pounds a month..Six months equals an 18 pound weight loss..I'll be happy with that..

Your maximum heart rate was 199 waitressing. Are you sure that's right? It's not like you just did a full out sprint down the street.

That's way off...I've only had a few instances where my Polar Ft4 HM stopped working in the middle of a workout. I tightened the strap and it has worked every since..I still think the calories burned on these HRM are low even when working right. How low. Not sure. But they are called Heart Rate Monitors for a reason..

Nothing wrong with a cheat day...Body for Life program has a cheat day once a week. There are thousands who have been successful implementing that lifestyle...I did that program about 10+ years ago for two months..It works and one day a week I ate anything I wanted..I took full advantage of it also.

I bought a treadmill that goes up to a 40% incline...I hold onto the rails all the time..Anything over 15% I pretty much hold on..One day last week my average heart rate was 141 in the last 20 minutes of an hour workout. That was walking at a 22-28% incline at 3.2 - 3.6 mph holding onto the rails..So you can get a great…

I'll be 45 this year...It's been 12 weeks and I've lost 9 pounds. I've cut back on sweets and fast food..But I still drink coke.
