"I can go over my calories because I'm on vacation." "I can go over my calories because I'm visiting friends." "I can go over my calories because I'm on my period." It's hard; however, if I gave myself excuses-then I wouldn't be dedicated. I know none of those excsuses are what OP is mentioning, which is cool. I'm just…

I had knee Bursitis before. If you feel the pain from the inflammation stop. You are prolonging recovery. If you are having a good day do what the doctor recommends as well as really warm-up the muscles so they're ready to do the work. Avoid heavy loads on the area. I had to avoid lunges with my left knee for over 3…

it is a sign to have a water bottle close by for hydration. & a towel so the salt does not get in your eyes.

Hi. I'm 5'1 and ex cross country runner (college and High School). All the time I plantar flex in a day is definitely over 100 (guesstimate) to reach and get dishes, to reach and get something else, to jump up and do pull-ups on the pull-up bar. So I also have bulgy calf muscle. :) a. are you sure you do not have THAT much…

^It is. Portion Control= eating at a calorie deficit. Cutting back at mealtime reduces the amount of calories which contributes to weight loss for men and women.

you're doing fine! I also cannot do every single day on the pop pilates calendar. I'm doing 5x5 strong lifts. I joined a Spartan workout team I also do cross training. I just fit in blogilates when I can because for me it is essentially great core work. Adjust to how you can. the most important thing is being consistent…

Hi. A lot of people go around the gym as beginners and just do whatever to get affiliated with equipment. That is a-ok. However you will notice a change in workout regime each day and a wtfamIdoinglook. The problem is that you can get unmotivated. So what you are doing by asking about programs is way cool because…

1 suggestion: buy a couple kettlebells and go to town on different swings/lifts. Russian kettlebell swing American Kettlebell swing Suitcase pick-up Snatches that one arm (I forget what it is called). Look up more online. 2nd suggestion: look up on meet-up.com for recreational programs. Lots of basketball/flag football is…

portion control. You mentioned how you are in the wrong body. Nope. Still yours. However, you lost the convenience of having a scheduled PE class that you had to attend and cheerleading curricular activities that you had to attend. Now you need to find fitness that you can do regularly just as you did back in high school.…

I love sugar too. I follow IIFYM and eat sugar. Today I had ice cream. Tomorrow I will have ice cream. I eat fruit and looooove bananas. I'm losing more body fat than I ever had before. it's called knowing how much you put in. Get a scale and measure your food. Look, I tried the whole cut it out. How long can you cut out…

1. A basic routine is a basic routine. I do 5x5, but I have added a bit more exercises because I want to work on some individual muscles myself. Not only this I want to do a lot of running events so I do a lot of HIIT. I have personal goals and I work towards them grabbing from different routines here and there and mixing…

Constant Resistance Equipment (AKA free weights): weight plates attached to machines that have no special attachments or adjustments that would alter their resistance. A five pound dumbbell or a barbell with 20 lbs on it or a stack of weight plates weighing 200lbs on it will remain the same weight (constant) throughout the…

Not really my specialty. I use bodywieght routine for HIIT and warm-ups. however, I looked around and found this site: https://fitloop.co/ comes with a video, explanation, a routine, and you choose your level. here is more: http://i.imgur.com/4WpVbOW.png or here: http://i.imgur.com/swekkbH.png I do blogilates on youtube as…

before I bought a scale and was just using cups and tbs and tsp I was still measuring my food wrong (overscooping). It is pretty easy to eat over the TDEE. This might be your problem. As well as, MFP does not have the proper nutrition info. I figured that one out with the cinnamon bread I was going to gorge on. It was also…

sounds like you need to do some google searching and find some great hiking areas nearby to you. Also meetup.com can also assist with hiking groups.

If you are following a strict meal plan and you have the measurements down (I mean you know you're eating the oz and grams because of a kitchen scale and not eyeing your measurements).. then the bigger might be water retention or muscle gain. are you looking at body fat %? Have you done a skinfold test? Try taking pictures…

proper balances will come with more comfort of how you are doing movements, so you can focus more on your body and less on the move. However, most lifts I do in front of a mirror. I watch to make sure on certain moves that my back is straight (pendlay rows/good mornings/etcetera) or I'm not adding extra movement that areas…

If you can run/walk ~12 miles without throwing up you are fine. I have not done the SOCAL TM though. Only the TM in Tahoe about 5-6 times. It's practically all running. The obstacles are just mental (heights, darkness, shocks.) Upper body is rarely a concern in TM.

Motivational Factors: More Knowledge: Usually the more people know, the more they want to work on what they know Clear goals: Aim for that goal Music: It's just proven in a couple studies Support: Get this from family/friends/spotters/outside comments. Not Mundane and the Same: Keep things variable, mix things up. Add more…

If your goal is to get thinner then it is going to happen in the kitchen. To develop you exercise. As for if you are working out too much; that's more a factor of you, your health, your goals. On a typical day I do cross training, strength training, and some form of pilates or cardio training for marathons. On days I…

really depends on your own goals.

well, you kind of answered it yourself. You need to get yourself a new goal. Cardiovascular goals: PR on a mile run (aim for 5 min)/swim, Do a marathon (if you haven't already)/triathalon/adventure racing Strength: Compete in lifts, looks, etcetera... You first got to find something to strive for and then keep building on…

Do you have a specific question about what you are doing? What type of advice are you looking for? program advice? Thoughts: Try not to be too dissatisfied with starting out weights. As long as you gradually keep adding you will be fine. Overload Principle: Proper scientific application of a progressive resistance weight…

I'm not a trainer. But if you are talking about the difference between shoulders in and out it's the muscle you are working. I had no idea regular push-ups were considered bad for the rotator cuff (then again I practice good form). I guess it's because joint stabilization.
