  • Mobile, Al! Looking for motivational friends. I've been following exercise and nutritional science since I was 14 years old and now I'm...much older than 14. lol I am using my desire to rock the new kilt I bought while in Scotland last May to motivate me to new levels of lean and mean fitness.
  • I read through this thread and I have two observations, 1. Oh hell some of this stuff was hee-larious! 2. You guys are pretty brutal. Concerning sweating at the gym...If your pouring sweat all over the gear it's good gym ettiquette to wipe it off when you're done.
  • I had never heard of S&ABJ day until now. Considering I am single I will have to muddle through.
  • Did you wash your hands? :bigsmile:
  • Celery if I don't juice it up. however, now that I've invented my "Veggie Smoothie of Epic Proportions" using my Oster blender I rarely ‘juice’ anymore so I don't buy celery anymore. I throw a bunch of veggies of all kinds (kale, broccoli, garlic and other superfood veggies for sure), sharp cheddar, balsamic vinegar and a…
  • Are you dong any weight resistance? Are you doing any ab' work outs? Muscles in the stomach also sag and can be tightened up with ab' work.
  • As far as 40+ men are concerned, I've been reading that sagging muscles can be tightened up considerably via ab workouts. Having a 6-pack or not I'm just not sure about yet but I’m still reading. Calorie burning, weight lifting in general and certainly a lot of ab work are all part of the mix. I plan on starting a daily ab…
  • Oh my god that sounds so good...
  • Sorry to hear of your frustrations. I've been in and out of the gym myself; Recently for two years and now back in there and dealing with the soreness, weak cardio and respiratory ability and just lookin' bad in my clothes...blah. The most basic advice I can give is KEEP TRYING. Don't give up! Your health IS actually…

Once you take away the flavorings and you're just drinking the 'bean juice' you will begin to really notice the flavor of the coffee itself and you will find that there are some very interesting flavors and aromas associated with beans from different parts of the world. Also, different…
  • This is an interesting subject. I drank flavored lattes from the coffee shop back in the mid 90s but quickly got away from that. I just thought the syrups along with whole milk were just overkill. Once I left Portland OR in 2007 I stopped drinking my plain, soy lattes because I was ruined for anyone else's attempt at a…
  • My name is Mark. I live in Mobile AL and I'm 48. I'm mainly out of shape but, according to medical science I do qualify as over weight. I've always been around 200-205 at 6 feet tall. The thing is that for about the 1st 4 decades of my life my BMI was always very low as I have always been a gym rat, however, the last two…
  • I use this: Zephyr HxM Bluetooth Wireless Heart Rate Sensor for Android and Windows Phone 8 They also have a model that works with IPhones if that is your bag. I love mine. Love it..! I use it with the Digifit app which gives me the number of calories I burn based on my gym time or treadmill or yoga...anything. It covers…
  • Hi there, everybody. New guy here. <waving> I would add to the conversation that I really DO like to get inspiration for looking at other people's progress that is far beyond my own and maybe even beyond my genetic ability to achieve. I was at the gym last night and there are a couple of guys there who have beautiful,…
