  • Hi everyone. I have been experimenting with grain free / primal diet for a few months and have recently switched to Low Carb/High Fat (Diet Doctor) Ketogenic diet and I am loving it so far. I lift weights or do HIIT cardio at 5:30 AM most mornings and so far my energy/intensity levels have been fine. I also do 16/8…
  • I have been experimenting with a grain free diet for several months and have recently been transitionaing to a LCHF diet. I have been studying Paleo, Primal, and most recently Diet Doctor and Eating Academy. All great resources and all have their differences too. I find the Diet Doctor version suits me the best so far (I…
  • I started shakeology over a year ago because my Cholesterol and Triglycerides were high and Heart Disease runs in my family. My doctor wanted to put me on Crestor (a Statin drug) to lower my cholesterol. I was eating pretty decent at the time and was at a healthy weight due to increased exercise and using MFP to plan and…
  • I started at 312lbs (I am 6'3") wearing size 44 pants in January 2013. Lost 80 lbs by Nov 2013 and got down to size 36 pants. I currently weigh 240 lbs and have added some muscle over the last year. I would like to get to 225 lbs and less than 12% body fat (or lower). Please add me as well.

Here is product description: This powerful supplement is scientifically formulated to help improve your energy, endurance, strength, and focus, so you can…
  • Definitely going to try this. Sounds good. Always looking for ways to get more protein. Thanks!!
  • I have bad shoulders and Dumbbells allow me to rotate my hands facing each other for the press which is much easier on the shoulders. I switched to DB several years ago, but occaisionally do Barbell to see if I am retaining strength --- so far so good even though the combined weight of two DB is far less than the barbell…
  • Fitnessblender.com is a great site with lots of HIIT workouts that are free.
  • I have been using a HRM for my workouts for several months now and have experienced the same effects. The Calories burned calculation is based on average heart rate for the duration of the workout. So when I first begin a new "challenging" workout (like Insanity) the first time or two that I do it I will typically pause…
  • I use Whey Protein powder to increase my protein intake without significantly increasing Fat and Carbs. Just mix a scoop with 8 oz water and drink and you can add 25 - 30g of protein to your diet without even chewing. There are many brands and flavors to choose from. I personally prefer Body Fortress Super Advanced Whey…
