Actually, the Wal-Marters might just be on to something. They smell, sound, and move so much like zombies already, that actual zombies might just be fooled into passing them right by in favor of something that seems more "human".

Can you at least glide? ;) Couldn't resist.

Nothing wrong with it. I think it's a cool idea.

If he doesn't like that, then trying to navigate with a running GPS will drive him totally bonkers. The only way he might be able to do it is if he uses a compass for direction and just uses the watch for distance measurement.

He probably can but it's not the best tool for the job. Most of them don't display a compass heading. At best they will have a very rudimentary ability to navigate simply because of their tiny screens. A hand-held GPS is purpose-built for that sort of thing and will allow following headings, marking waypoints,…

Mind control. You don't realize it, but you've been sending them $39 a month via PayPal since the day you logged on.

Don't know about hot, but doing the best I can at 42. Gotta keep up with my young kiddos as they get older!

If you would have asked me this a year ago, I would have said to absolutely get some running shoes. After having knee problems (ITBS specifically) with my nice new fitted running shoes, I switched to minimalist shoes and have eliminated my problems. So now I am of the belief that less is more when it comes to running…

Yeah, that's backward, the yolk contains the most nutrients, although it also does contain the most fat and cholesterol, which also doesn't really matter since the current consensus seems to be that dietary cholesterol and saturated fat does not have the effect on blood lipids as once thought.

Wear good-draining shoes. I use Salomon Tech Amphibians. You don't want shoes full of water. Quick drying shorts and shirts are good too. No cotton. I wear running shorts and an Under Armour compression shirt. I wear the compression shirt because it doesn't get all sloppy and floppy when it's wet and cause chafing. If…

No, you're doing it right. This is one area where your goal should not be having the most. 2 marriages just means that they failed once. Take your time and find the one that lasts.

There can be any number of reasons, but don't sweat it ladies. I didn't get married until I was nearly 37 and had 2 kids after I turned 40. My wife is 5 years younger. I had no trouble dating, and I dated a fair amount, but none of them materialized into marriage material. Earlier in life I was focused on education and…

The "100 Calories sitting around" is already accounted for in your BMR. So if you work out to burn an additional 400, I would eat back the 400.

It's likely not you, but them. It may be true that some people say that because they are jealous or "haters", but more likely it's because they are used to seeing the larger you every day and their minds make them think you look too skinny now. Especially when it's very noticable in the face. They just need to get used to…

Before I got flu shots I got the flu almost every year without fail. What the above poster said is true. You cannot get the actual flu from a flu shot. So you were either exposed before the shot took effect, or you are experiencing other mild symptoms from the immune response. The vaccine is not "boosted" every year. It is…

Yeah if you don't want to keep and use it, then either find some friends to help you take it there or list it on Craigslist. Don't rent a vehicle to take it there because chances are you'll be disappointed in what they offer you for it and you'll be lucky if you don't lose money on the deal by renting a vehicle to haul it…

I was actually going to take next week off anyway because I will be out of town for 2 of the 3 workouts. This just makes me feel less guilty about it. Better safe than sorry, after all.

Yeah, not true as everyone has already said. But hypothetically, if they offered up pastured organic, hand-separated chicken nuggets, and they cost $14 for a 10-pack, how many people would be ponying up to buy them? Very few I bet. Fast food evolved for a reason. It serves a certain demographic. There was a market for it…

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in Stronglifts 5x5 doesn't Medhi say that warmups for the deadlifts aren't necessary because you have just done a 5x5 of squats which basically serve as your warmup for the 1x5 of deadlifts?

Get Brasilian Kiwis. They're completely hairless. ;)

I will sometimes have cottage cheese with walnuts mixed in.

Get a bidet and never look back. ;)

If it's on a man-made surface I would call it walking, it it's on a natural trail I would call it hiking. That's just my opinion as far as terminology goes. Of course you can have hilly roads and flat trails, so the syntax is moot when it comes to calorie burn.

I have an old digital Tanita body fat scale that I've had for years. It's been consistent with both weight and body fat measurements. No complaints.

Stronglifts 5x5 program consisting squats, overhead presses, bench presses, bent-over rows, and deadlifts. All with a barbell in alternating workouts 3 times per week MWF.

Police Helicopter Instructor Pilot. Been a cop for 18 years. Anyone here feel free to add me if you like!

I'm a NB Minimus fan. I wear the MT10 for trail running and the new MR00 for road running. I used to get IT Band Syndrome pretty bad during trail runs and switching to these minimalist shoes has eliminated it. My longest trail run in my MT10s is 10.5 miles and no issues. The shoes seem to be holding up really well, too.

Or just use apple juice as an approximation. The calories from the carrots will probably be negligible compared to the calories from the sugar content of the apples anyway.

Cycling with a fairly high resistance?

Michael Phelps is a good example. Another is Dean Karnazes, and ultramarathoner who will actually eat an entire large pizza WHILE running. "Junk" food fuels your body too, and yes, elite athletes DO eat it.
