  • THANK YOU! that was driving me crazy~
  • Try these called ZWOWS, http://litealloy.com/workouts/tags?utf8=✓&search%5Btime%5D=&search%5Btags%5D%5B%5D=no%20equipment&commit=Go! They are all body weight only & super effective. Setting goals like 100 push ups a day, 50 burpees a day, 1 minute planks etc will also help you decide what to do to reach those goals. You…
  • YES ZWOW is the bomb! I also love BodyRock.tv. If I couldn't go to the gym I'd get a sandbag & door jam pull up bar. I've never used bands except for some physical therapy for my shoulders but it was very effective at the time. My trainer & sifu say that body weight is weight training & if you HIIT the workouts they can…
  • So if the majority of my exercise is weightlifting, martial arts, & crossfit I would have to manually enter all that? Are the burns for manually entered info more accurate than MFP? I'd love to have something like this but only if it is accurate. I wish MFP had some way to compensate for increased fitness. I mean 1.5 years…
  • I second Elly's advice & add www.bodyrockers.com the at home workout movement. It is awesome.... & free! Lifting body weight is still lifting weight, but I have a sandbag on my christmas list. good luck!
  • Woohoo Friends of Mark!
  • I did paleo for a year & lost 25ish pounds. Then I added some grains back in & stopped losing. Been hovering around the same weight even gained a pound or 2, which hopefully is muscle from the lifting I've been doing, but the world didn't end. I didn't blow up like a balloon. I eat whole foods as close to their natural…
  • The food portion of this article is almost word for word from Mark's Daily Apple, a paleo eating blog. Mark does a better job though & offers even more info about macros, recipes, the science behind it etc. He just won't be advocating adding the high carb starches back in! LOL. HIIT is the bomb LOVE it. I-tunes has great…
  • I didn't do a reset either so I don't have that experience. However, I did almost double my calorie intake including....gasp...carbs over the last 2.5 weeks & I haven't gained a pound. It is honestly completely mystifying to me. I was prepared to gain & I may still but really I just wanna be healthy. I have way more energy…
  • I'm gonna say it is a personal thing. My crossfit people don't do paleo..... allthough some are talking about trying it.
  • 100 burpees in10:26. WOOOO HOOOO
  • I'm set for 3-5 hrs moderate on MFP & Scooby but I would never call my crossfit or Kung Fu workouts moderate... I really want a wrist monitor! Monday~ Crossfit w/kettlebell 30 min Tuesday~ run 2 mi. 50 min Piyo, 90 min Kung Fu Wed~ run 2 mi. Crossfit w/kettlebell 30 min, 50 min bellydancing Thursday~ 90 min Kung Fu Friday~…
  • I have 4. They were born when I was 26, 28, 30, & 32. Works great for us, I was ready!
  • Chia seed ground & added to just about anything Sprouted nuts & seeds Homemade granola Almond flour can be subbed into baking recipes as well as flax & chia Meat muffins for snacking 1# ground meat, Spices you like, 2 tbs ground chia mixed with 3 tbs water bake in muffin tins @350 till they smell done... 20-30 min
  • A good compromise is sprouted grain breads. They are high in protein, good whole carbs, & nutrients. I like Ezekiel Sprouted grain breads. They have wraps, buns, & breads. It is usually in the freezer section. The Idea behind good carbs & bad does relate to nutrition but also to glycemic index. The more whole a food is the…
  • I am new to EM2LW but have been eating paleo for a couple of years & am just starting to really increase my calories from 1250 to 1680. I will say that eliminating grains & legumes makes is super hard to hit 30% or 35% carbs with higher calories. My ratio is 35c35p30f & I have been having a hard time keeping up with the…
  • Leap frog runs with friends~ jog in a line, last person sprints to the front, repeat. Crossfit combinations~ (10 pushups, 10 jumping jacks, 10 mountain climbers, 10 situps, 10 mountain climbers, 10 pushups, 10 squats) repeat 5 times Junglegym climbing~ (up, down, 5 burpees) repeat the taller the better. we have ones here…
  • Stevia! It comes in powder or liquid & you can get in flavors.... like chocolate or vanilla. My kids love the vanilla in their milk. 0 calories totally sweet. Someone will surely say they tried it the powder packets & it was bitter. It depends on what they mix it with. I use Wholesome sweeteners Organic Stevia packets in…
  • I the beginning, when I was trying to get the silly things to remember how to work, I did 2- 15 min. ab sessions a day in addition to my other workouts. I was just barely breathing heavy & super focused on form. It helped me maintain the posture changes & teach them how to be engaged throughout the day. Like not sticking…
  • Yay you! Go for it! I'm looking up workouts today :) V~
  • Hey, I'm working on my last 5 lbs & I love the idea of bodyrockin but her workouts are getting so crazy complicated & I don't have a sandbag. Any suggestions for getting around that? I end up doing loads of crossfit in addition to kung fu & yoga. I could add 2 or 3 bodyrock workouts a week w/out the sandbag of course! 5'4…
  • Well this is a totally different topic but yes I am allergic (IG-E histamine) to sulfa drugs & sulfanimides (albuterol). I also have a metabolic intolerance to sulfites & foods with high available sulfur content i.e. I do not metabolically convert them to sulfates. This causes systemic (whole body) inflammation,…

  • Try adding a couple of strawberries, raw unsalted nuts, or some avocado to your salad & skip the MSG in the ranch dressing. MSG makes you want to eat! So unfair & sneaky. A little healthy fat tells your brain that you are full. Hope this helps~ V~
