  • My husband and I have recently become interested in clean eating, raw eating and organic. I've always considered ourselves in a healthy lifestyle category but after researching and digging around and talking to people who have done it all their lives, it really opened our eyes to what food really is and the complete…
  • Idk...I think running on a treadmill is harder for me... I used to run track and cross country and even now, I'll pick running outside on the road or on a trail over a treadmill wil air conditioning. Yes, it is easy in a sense that the belt does seem to propel you forward, but unless you put the setting at a 1 or 2 incline…
  • Alaska!! It's so beautiful--it's breath taking!! Literally! However, I thoroughly enjoy hiking anywhere...we go to the Smokies every chance we get! It's amazing! :D

  • I agree! You can do all the ab exercises you want...you can't lose the pouch if you're not watching what you eat. I've been fortunate enough to get rid of my pouch (i have a 2yo) but I'm currently working on the innertube-like-structure above it!! I used the yoga ball and bender ball to get rid of mine! Good luck--it can…
  • hmmm...I just used RunKeeper and Nike this morning, simultaneously and it worked fine. I started RunKeeper first and never paused when I used the home button to get to the Nike app to start that one...so idk chica...Sorry I can't be of help!! :/

  • bumping this--great information!
  • your heart rate range depends on whether you're targeting a cardio workout or a fat burning workout...if it's high, then you're doing more cardio than you are fat burning...your range will be different depending your age and on how often you do cardio in general. the more frequent you do it, your heart rate should take…
  • in the front of any cabinet/pantry and the refrigerator, i have post-its stuck to them. and on those post-its, it says "do not eat if you're not hungry. do not eat if you're bored. do not eat and watch tv or read. eat at the table. eat til you're 80% full." reading that usually helps me...and since it's posted everywhere…
  • AHAHAHAHA!! Driving on the interstate, I always see signs for "BOILED NUTS"...I just smile and keep driving!
  • I have a 2yo and I do my workouts before his dad goes to work in the morning and during his naps. Although, he's been a good sleeper from the get go...when he does wake up in the middle of his nap, I usually let him cry it out and he'll go back to sleep (as long as it's in the beginning or middle of his nap...if it's in…
  • Although I am not soley doing p90x (there are other at home exercise programs i do) I try to fit in a run every other day in the morning before my son wakes up. And while he's napping in the afternoon, I do the exercises.
  • [/quote] NASM is the most respected. There are many others CSCS, ACE is good too. My friends who are personal trainers, have many certificates not just one. They work as personal trainers. Getting started, there is a dvd and book set for the NASM. That's how I got started. I highly recommend understanding how macro…
  • oh gosh..where do i begin! i would have to say sour cream and onion anything and chez its--why is it that those salty little buggers are just soooo good at 830 at night while you're watching tv?! oh yeah, and cheetos... :blushing:
  • wow! great find! I can't wait to try some of those recipes out! Thanks!
  • you really need to make sure you're staying hydrated and taking in enough protein for your body to continue to work properly. i cannot stress how important your diet is when you really push yourself...
  • I find it hard to eat something before I work out at 6am. But sometimes, I do realize that I SHOULD and I will eat a small portion of oatmeal. But for the most part, I don't eat before my morning workout because I'm just not hungry...
  • holy cow--those sound awesome!
  • bump, i've been wondering this too!
  • it's how your foot hits the ground when you walk and run. it's how your weight shifts on your legs and feet.
  • OREOS...when i was pregnant i swear i ate a bag every other day and downed it with whole milk...i still eat them now, but for special days and i'm all about PORTION CONTROL!!!!!!! :D
  • i've recently run into (and conquered) this problem with my toddler as well. i found that if i make his snacks fun and healthy then i don't stress as much over breakfast, lunch, and dinner. i make smoothies with veggies in them and ultimately find places to hide spinach in his pizza and spaghetti. but a good ol' baked…
  • i totally agree with jeffrodgers1...you have to get your gait analyzed, that's the best way to go. and honestly, you'll get what you pay for when it comes to running shoes. i prefer nike's because i've been running in them for over 20 yrs and they work for me. however, i also like the feel of mizunos and…
