  • No interest in team sports and almost never watch TV. I occasionally will watch a football gave if visiting with friends.

  • I've been running Endomondo on my 1st gen Motorola Droid. I really like it. I've had a few problems with locking onto gps signals, but I believe thats the Droid, not the App. I do a battery pull, and all the sudden it picks up the satellites great.

  • I've done TaeBo, P90X, and Insanity. For the calorie burn, Insanity is best IMHO. However, just to put the proper emphasis where it belongs, no workout will make up for excessive calories.

  • Depends on what HRM you bought. Unfortunately, Timex and Polar use proprietary formulas to calculate calories burned. Based upon comments I've seen around the web, it seems to be a concensus that the HRM's over-estimate calories burned. I've been doing Insanity workouts (45-60 mins) and I use the calories from MFP for…

  • I like the "old fashioned" oatmeal because I like the texture better than "quick" or "instant". I use a half cup apple juice plus half cup water to the half cup oats. The apple juice sweetens it up just right. I also throw in some raisins or craisins. And top it off with some pumpkin spice. 270 calories. Love it.

  • Timex and Polar make good inexpensive models. Timex has added benefitof having replaceable battery in chest strap. I'm using the Timex Ironman Personal Trainer that I got for about $80.
