  • LOL... If I'm home later I'll pop in to help make them aware......
  • Currently cutting at ~2000 cals. 40/35/25 (c/p/f) I am a former fatty that lost 62lbs last year, but had 0 muscle. I started bulking in September and hit 196 at the end of December. I am now slowly cutting back down to hit around 170 for summer. Will bulk again come fall, but do it a bit slower this time so I gain less…
  • Thanks for the info. I do most of them, but didnt know about hight GI carbs post workout.
  • I added about 25g of carbs pre-workout to help get me through.
  • 1st..... SN= djlogik
  • Could have been cold muscles (not stretched enough). Could have been foot placement/leg stance (too wide, too narrow). Could have had body twisted a bit when you squatted, etc. Unfortunately there will be no definite answer to how it happened. The thing to do now is rest it and pay close attention to your form next time so…
  • I have had the device for 6 months. I cant wait for the subscription to run out so I stop wasting my time with it. I bought it when I plateaued and I have kept a 500 cal daily deficit for months and nothing changed by going by their numbers. I think it either over estimates my calorie burn or my metabolism is reallllllyyyy…
  • Nice! I have a Trek mountain bike and a Trek road bike. I needed both as i enjoy riding both types of terrain. Get yourself a good helmet and a small pouch for under the seat to hold an extra tube, patch kit, co2 cartridges, and some zip ties. Better safe than sorry ;)
  • Welcome to the group! I've been at this for about a week. I was reaching a plateau in my goals, but I didnt want to lower my cals anymore than what they already were. Thats when I discovered some of the info here and figured it was worth a try. I've been slowly raising my cals upto 2400 after being at a 1700 cal cut. Been…
  • This workout hits most of the major muscle groups. If you lift heavy and keep reps between 10-12, you should see some good results. If you don't know what the specific exercise is, search the site and they have little video clips of the exercises. This helps you understand the form and what muscle it targets.…
  • I have the BodyBugg version (still made by bodyfit media) and never had an issue while in the car or my commute to work. It usually shows 1.4cal per minute burn (same as sleep and work)
  • Welcome!
  • Eating foods with a high fiber content will keep you fuller longer. For in between meals, coffee and green tea help. Just watch your cream and sugars if you add them.
  • I weigh myself every day, in the morning. Then I add all those numbers together and divide it by 7 to come up with an average weight for the week. I then use that number for my tracker. This gives me a better idea of my weight since there are days where its higher and days where its lower.

  • It does tell you what you burn for the day. The devices are accurate within 10%, thats more than any online calculator or HRM can give. It does gauge your workouts correctly, even lifting. Most people seem to think it doesn't because it doesn't match up with their HRM. The BMF/BB devices monitor your hear rate, body…
  • I eat some of my exercise calories back if I know I'll be close to a 1000 cal deficit for the day. I wear a bodybugg device which has been pretty accurate. So if I have a day that I know i'll hit 3000 calories burned for the day (normal day without exercise is 2400), I'll bump up my normal 1800 daily calories to 2200-2300…
  • For the average person, they are about 350 cals per workout. A heart rate monitor will say you burned between 500 and 800cals, but that's way off. The p90x guide estimates about 600cal per workout, which too is a bit high.

  • Agreed! The most over used term in the diet communities. If you're not losing weight, eat less or move more.
  • Never eat back workout calories! Determine your caloric goal based on your actual daily activity. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Weight Loss Tools
