  • Dear megabyt23: :flowerforyou:
  • Me too, but most important is the person they are attached to. Remember you said serious serious relationship. If someone is looking for a serious relationship and chest size is at or near the top of the list I would think that they have some growing up to do before they are ready for a serious relationship.
  • running shoes are made to be light and support a forward, linear motion and tend to have very little support for lateral movement. Not what you are doing at all with Insanity. I am using Nike Free cross trainers and love them for Insanity. They are just meh out on pavement - even just walking the dog, and don't have enough…
  • Forgot to add: I am in the begininning of Month 2 Week 2 (aka Week 6, which is really week 7 because they don't count the 6 days of recovery week workouts in the numbered weeks).
  • If I had stayed on track I would be in the group nearing the end of Insanity. Instead, recurring lower back pain the morning after the Insanity workouts have led me to switch to Insanity 2 times a week with yoga 5 times a week and tennis on Thursday nights. Love the Insanity workouts but they are brutal even going at my…
  • eating4me and alex: wow. great dedication and great results. becky: sounds like a tough schedule. way to keep up with the workouts. ryan: hang in there with the shoulder. maybe focus on rehab exercises for a while, possibly with a physical therapist. I know it is not your ideal right now but you may be better off long…
  • SEND THE THANK YOU NOTE. There are many people who would not hire you for that reason alone (me included). If you can add a detail or follow-up from the interview, something that shows you were paying attention and care, such as "I found it interesting that you do X instead of Y" or some such thing so much the better.…
  • Yes, though I did not have a lot to lose. Wii My Fitness Coach and now doing Insanity. Also play soccer in the fall and tennis mid-June to mid-August, bith 1x per week. QWe just got an elliptical and will use it once I am done with Insanity.
  • Still some minor soreness and stiffness in the back this morning. Did Yoga and pushed Insanity Week 5, Day 4 back another day again. Hopefully feeling all better tomorrow morning and plan is Day4 Tuesday a.m. Day 5 Wednesday a.m. Skip Insanity Thursday since playing tennis Thursday night. Yoga Friday morning and Insanity…
  • Thanks. Good to know I am not alone.
  • I definitely hurt my lower back today doing Week 6, day 3 Max Cardio Conditioning . Had some mild discomfort after my Insanity morning/Tennis evening Thursday. Very sore (muscle sore) from the Insanity workout today: lots of up and down, planks, suicides, reaching down and across the body moves. Had gotten back in the…
  • I have started using body bug and what it records for me is usually significantly lower than teamryan90 even though we are about the same age, weight, height and condition (though my guess is he is in better shape than I am). I have an open diary so feel free to check what I am recording. I started using the bodybug in…
  • cut up in cubes with cut up tomato diced to about same size as the avocado. Simple and the tomato acidity is a nice compliment to the avocado. Bright, light and refreshing esp. on hot summer days. Sometimes I add mozzerella cubes to it.

  • From urban Dictionary dot com A Female Drug Dealer who works in a Trap house. Trap Girls are usually very good athletes being able to run fast, shoot fire arms well, and sell drugs amazingly fast. Trap Girls always stay with a firearm because of the money they have and have to protect the drugs and their life for the…
  • Consider a heart rate monitor to get a better idea of what you are actually burning.
  • 1st day of month 2 and whoa. Got up almost early enough. Did Insanity Max Interval Circuit - 60 minutes of OMG! Went from: I got this > I ain't (sic) got this > I can't do it all but I can push a little harder and do a few more> Wow, that was quite a workout laying on the floor spent.
  • Insanity Fit Test 3 So I switched to morning workouts and its not working out as well as evening workouts. Definitely harder to get motivated and less energy. My recovery week was a recovery 2 weeks. Boo. Fit Test results suffered as a result of that and less energy in the morning. Also, this time around I think my form…
  • WTG mammymonkey ! From the comments I have seen many people don't lose much or even gain a little weight with Insanity but lose inches around their waist and tone up significantly. Congrats on starting and stick with it. Finished week 5 recovery week and did Fit Test. Will start the second half of Insanity tomorrow. I did…
  • I love it. Made me think of something I saw recently. It can be taken somewhat condescendingly, but I prefer to look at it as a positive motivational thing. Not that I think of you as a "fatty" ar from it. I find your workouts and food diary inspirational. To the fatty running on the Westview track this afternoon:…
  • Very jealou of both of you. Enjoy your time off. I am taking 1 day this week and it is to bring my parents into Cornell Medical in NYC where my dad is having a heart operation. Very, very low risk operation and he should be fine. I am trying to get back on track with Insanity and have done the recovery week workout for the…
  • I'm 50 my profile page is open if you want to know a bit more about me and you can add me if you feel I can help.
  • Thanks for the reminder. I am back on track with Insanity and have just done 3 straight days of workouts: Last exercise day of week 4 and then straight into the core cardio and balance recovery week days 1 and 2. Looking forward with dread to phase 2 and I can not imagine how insane it will be if it is even harder than…
  • I have slipped also this week. I am trying to shift back to morning workouts. Monday and today I wasjust too exhaust. Alarm went off. Closed my eyes for a second and it was 30 minutes later. Monday night through Tuesday night driving and then at new student orientation with my daughter at University of Delaware so no shot…
  • I haven't gotten one yet but after a lot of research, including Consumer Reports, I was going to get the Polar FT7. Someone gave me a body bug with an armband monitor and I am using that to see how I like it. Frtom all I have read it is not as accurate as the Polar FT 7 or other chest strap monitors.
  • I am finding that I am feeling weaker not stronger lately too on some of these Insanity workouts. General impression, not measurement though. My quads are dying during these exercises and are definitely staying somewhat sore agter as well. Missed Insanity workout last night (older daughter graduated High School and had a…
  • You should never have ripped the headoff her favorite Barbie doll back when you were in pre-school. It sure sounds like she is trying to sabatoge you. Don't let the B-word win. Leave the peanut butter there untouched by you and don't say a word about it. That will strengthen your self-control and piss her off more than…
  • Okay, so one of my MFPs has asked if I am getting enough protein since I am doing the Insanity workouts. Anyone know what the recommendations for protein intake are?
  • Cardio Power & Resistance is COMPLETE for me too. Feeling it in the abs and in the back muscles. And my quads were burning and now are just feeling shot. Woo hoo.
