I have to agree. I have so much more fun doing Turbo Fire. and it is a cardio kickboxing dancing mix - so it should be up your ally with zumba! I'm starting Turbo on Sunday and am putting together a group on facebook to do it with me! super excited!

yes! use the "new to class" option - she will walk you through each move as you do it! and you are so not alone. We all took awhile to figure it out and be able to do it at speed! but its an amazing workout! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

I am starting sunday! I did it before and lost 7 inches! this time I bought weighted gloves so I can really focus on toning! I am putting together a facebook group for people starting on the 10th! soo excited! I hope you love it as much as I do!

my first time through I didnt use shakeology either, so while it is great stuff, its not all-together necessary. I do agree with lots of the others, you probably arent eating enough. I always recommend people set their calories for loss of 1-2 pounds a week. And then you eat the recommended number by MFP PLUS what you…

I dislocated my kneecap last summer and I have to wear a knee brace for most workouts nowadays. Im focusing a lot on physical therapy exercises and ellipitcal training for my knee for the next few weeks but am gonna do the full 90 days of TF starting in March. I am probably gonna need the knee brace for at least the first…

ooh i like this one! you can even get it printed on a canvas - those always look nice! Also - itunes gift cards are prefect for him to pick out some new things on his iPad. or browse Amazon for what "people that bought an Ipad also looked at..."

Does it count if I did these yesterday? *wink*

browse the internet for some homemade granola recipes using dried fruits. I really like the recipes by mywholefoodlife.com - and anything that says "shredded coconut" - I substitute with dried fruits. I don't like coconut though ;)

hahaha you had me laughing outloud in class :x

if you see it, it is true. but losing weight that quickly is REALLY dangerous. You might want to make sure you are eating enough and getting enough protein. Especially if you just started Turbo Fire.

you should absolutely NOT being trying to lose weight before the baby has been born. Have you talked to your ob-gyn about that? The baby needs a lot of nutrients and if you are losing weight, you may be depriving him/her. And if you are breastfeeding - you still have to be careful HOW you diet and how quickly you lose the…

you gotta TELL those friends of yours to be more empathetic. I can say it like it is:)

for me its in the way my pants fit

sigh - i was just trying to point out how absurd it is to say that high reps don't build muscle. that doesn't even make sense. otherwise you would never be able to increase the amount of weight you use. you actually target MORE muscle fibers using higher reps.

oh that sounds awesome! How old are your children?

The BodyBugg brand I think is the most accurate but also way out of my price range. I have a polar FT4 and I love it. the things I was looking for were: (1) had to have a chest strap - I wanted to make sure it could accurately measure my heart rate without me having to pause and press my thumb to the watch or something (2)…

I'm kinda tired of people saying that the only way to build strength is high weight and low repetition. Of course that is probably the quickest way to build HUGE muscles - but for those of us that want to build endurance AND build up our muscles - low weight and high repetition is pretty damn good. I mean seriously, I…

I LOVE the at home system. I injured my knee last week and am currently out of commission and it makes me so sad! I hope all ya'all are working extra hard at it FOR me!

I've been drinking it for over a year and it drastically improved my digestion. I had pretty sever pains for years before I started drinking it. besides, they have a 30 day money back gaurantee so if you already have a coach to order it from, you mine as well. Besides, most coaches have samples of it too.

hahaha I'm gonna miss oprah's guidance. I looked it up on amazon and may have to add it to my summer reading list, alongside Game of Thrones ;)
-
exactly. you are not responsible for being quiet 24 hours a day. i'm sure there must be a "reasonable" hour for you to work out. I would just tell the person that you ARE working out and ask them when might be a good time for them. I dunno - I think we all have a right to use our living space, and especially since you are…

yea there is a whole series of CRUNCH videos on netflix that I cam across recently. I haven't actually tried them (I have an abundance of my own workout DVDs) - but I was looking for some kind of video to guide me through a spin class. Netflix doesn't have any of those but it did have the series of CRUNCH videos :)

I actually made an excel spreadsheet to figure out my insanity calorie burning before I got the polart FT4 that I have now. The spreadsheet uses the following equation: calories burned = (0.074 x age in years - 0.05741 x weight in pounds + 0.4472 x average heart rate - 20.4022) x time elapsed / 4.184. and then I would just…

I really like my polar FT4. the heart rate always matches exactly with what I count myself (and even that of one particular spin machine at the gym). Additionally, if your garmin provides you with your average HR you can always use the following equation: calories burned = (0.074 x age in years - 0.05741 x weight in pounds…

oooh good plan :)

lol a little harsh - no? Just remember - Failure is Temporary but Giving up is PERMANENT - so just keep coming back :)

feel free to add me! I'm a first year medical student and keep finding myself starting over too. In fact I'm starting a new workout program Monday (again) and am DETERMINED to stick with it regularly :)
