I just started yesterday. Day 2, plyometrics, today. I found I couldn't even do 1 rep of some exercises after getting 15-20 minutes into the actual workout. I would try my best to do something similar in these cases (regular pushups for diamond) but even then I gave myself lots of handicaps just to "keep moving/doing". One…

That's great then, as I have a machine with lat pull-down. Still, since i sometimes have to travel a lot, I am going to look into resistance bands anyway!

Thanks for the advice all. I have dumbbells that go from like 10-75lbs. I've never used more than 55lbs, though, for some incline press type things when I was actually working out. Can a lat pull-down machine be used in any way to simulate pullups, while I am waiting to get my real bar? I would think so, but hmm... I'll…

Yes, I've already taken a few and plan to keep doing it somewhat regularly. Sadly, so far all I have are essentially "before" pics -- I have only been working on adjusting diet for a week and a half, and am only just starting to work out the kinks of being wildly out of shape before I can also add in serious exercise to…

By coincidence I was given access to and tried Wii Fit for the first time last night. Really all I did was plug everything in and get it going, got my fatty-fatty assessment done on me, then I think I played around a bit and burned 19 (!!!!) whole calories, woohoo!! It does look rather fun, though. Seems neat that you can…

Thanks all for the info. From what I gather, pause and restart, do it at your own pace, etc., are your friends early on, and you don't *have* to start with a different program (thus avoiding buying a starter program then this thing on top of it). I think I am teetering on the edge of getting this and giving it a shot. I…

Every day. I weigh in at the exact same point in my morning routine, because I want the data. I do a couple of weekly in-boxer-shorts pics, also for the record. It depends on your mentality, but weighing daily can either be fascinating if you can bear the spikes and don't get too exited at the drops, or potentially…

First off, don't obsess over your "error." The worst thing about worrying about food is that it makes you think about food all that much more, throws unneccessary guilt on yourself, etc. Just try to stick to your calorie limit most days, and don't crush yourself for a 1-day slipup. If this happens once every couple of…
