Yep, what she said.

Congratulations on your PR!

Thanks, and have a good run at your half. And since you are a runner, check out https://athlinks.com/

Happy Monday! Ran a half marathon on Saturday morning. Hadn't really trained for it as my longest run was 8 miles two weeks ago. The small event was only a few miles from home and I just wanted to see what I could do. I surprised myself with a PR at 2:16:08 on my Garmin. Still waiting for the official times to be posted.…

I would suggest that you not cut back on the exercise. Google "sarcopenia" to learn why it would be a good idea to add resistance exercise to your plan. And congratulations on reversing the T2 DM. I watched my father deal with that most of his adult life. When I finally realized that I was following in his footsteps, I got…

Happy Thursday! I was still tired this morning when it was time to go to the gym, so I slept in.

Cardio: Rest day Strength: Rest day…

Yep, that site is "The Home of HST". It has an articles tab with even more info to wade through too. Here is my most recent distraction: http://suppversity.blogspot.com/2014/10/stretch-shortening-cycle-exercise.html That article starts with the word "sarcopenia" which is my main fitness motivation.

I am interested on your feedback too. I ran across it recently and was trying to decide whether to abandon my current regimen in order to try it. Haven't worked up the courage to give it a go yet. See also: http://hypertrophyspecific.com/hst_index.html

I'm 5'9, current TrendWeight has me at 172.7 ( https://trendweight.com/u/58f4f9e97f3740/ ). My profile pic is from January 11, 2014 and TrendWeight had me at 174.1 then. I am currently trying to maintain weight while doing body recomposition ( more muscle & less fat). Recently used measurements to calculate my body fat…

I am currently doing a calorie cycling thing where I deliberately eat around 20% over MFP goal on a weightlifting day and then 20% under MFP goal on the following day. So it all averages out over the long run.

I agree that starchy vegetables would better fuel your marathon training.
