As many others have stated you need better recipes. Also, as long as you can fit the burger into your current nutrition plan then have at it. Just make sure that you aren't overdoing it. There are some simple steps that have already been pointed out on here that can lessen some of the calories. Eat whole grain bread…

5'10, male I have pretty much been running my entire life, but I have found that the most comfortable (and fastest) that I have been is 169-172. Pretty much anything above that causes knee pains and below that feels like I don't have a lot of energy.

Dave's sprouted or multi-grain bread.

You need to have your gait analyzed so that you can determine if you need neutral or stability shoes. Just about any reputable running store will be able to do this for you and offer several different models. Road Runner Sport also offers a no question asked return policy within 90 days if you get them and find that they…

My Garmin 920 has indoor running and cycling modes, you have to get the foot pod with it.

Plan a hard workout for Saturday morning. Long run, cardio or something along those lines. Since you will likely have to wake up early to do this then you will have to make choices, like not drinking on Friday. When we lived in WA, we did this and it worked out quite well.

Running (distance, hills, sprints/intervals), biking (outdoor, spin) and swimming. Since tri season is fast approaching, these are pretty much all I do.

I could totally eat a whole box of those things, which is why we politely decline the invitation to purchase these. Log it, move on, go to the gym.

So how many calories are you under for the week? Don't look at it so much as I busted my diet because I ate... but look at the overall picture.

We usually weigh ours after it is cooked so that we get the correct portion size.

If you are looking for running shoes, then you don't go "cheap". My advice is to go to a running store, have them analyze your stride and foot fall in order to determine the best type of running shoe for your gait. You can then determine what is the best shoe for your budget.

You are not wierd at all. I run because I enjoy it, even in the rainy Pacific Northwest (which the rainy season is starting so I can't expect to see the sun for about the next 6 months) and enables me to decompress after work, zone out and focus on something I enjoy. It also helps to have a goal that you are trying to…

Absolutely go for it. I have completed about 4 sprints and want to do a half-Ironman, but that crazy swim thing gets in the way. Very rewarding and as long as you train up for it, you will be fine.

I'm by no means an expert, but I have been running most of my life. First off, you shouldn't try to run a mile straigt-especially if you have never run or haven't run in several years. You are asking to hurt yourself even worse. Start out slow and set reasonable goals. Shoot for run a lap and then walk a lap. The bottom…

10% per week is correct if you are upping your mileage. I would recommend staying at the same mileage for a couple of weeks before increasing so that you don't go too far too fast.

I have run pretty much my entire life, but have never had PF so I guess I am lucky. When increasing your mileage, the rule of thumb is to never go above 10% of your previous amount. Doing so does increase the risk of injuring/re-injuring yourself.

Look up strength training on cardio to add it there in order to get your burned calories, then you can add the specific exercises under strength training.
