Panick attack
I just had a huge panic attack at the gym. I was meant to be there at 6am but missed my alarm and woke up at 6. My personal trainer text me saying I'm working on an *kitten* whooping lol Anyway, he worked me so hard because of it. I've not had a panic attack in 4 years since I was put on celexa. After an hour of torture I…

Seeing muscles already?
I'm obese, I now weigh 236 after dropping 20lbs, I've had a personal trainer for the last 3 weeks, an hour 3 times per week. We've done weights and HIIT. It's been brutal sometimes but very enjoyable. So the last couple of days I've noticed when I look down at my arms I can see muscle. Is it really possible to see my…

Lifting weights calorie burn
I have no idea how many calories I burn lifting weights, I don't have a Fitbit or whatever and log my cardio calories according to the treadmill and bike etc, but weights I have no idea. Is there a site to enter stats info for an average?

Hubby is worried
I'm REALLY tired all day after working out. I burn roughly 600 calories and my goal is 1500 calories which brings my net to only 900 calories. Could this be why I'm so tired and not really losing any weight?

HIIT
What is that?

Too much?
my husband is worried that I'm working out too much because I'm so tired come the evening, I've been going to bed between 7-8 to read and fall asleep. I just skyped my mum and told her I ache from head to toe (but I like it, it's that nice pain that tells you you're making changes) and her response was "don't do it then,…

Question for the fit who hit the gym
this is going to sound so silly, I'm 35 years old and shouldn't be concerned with this. I know those at the gym most likely don't even give others a second glance, as they're busy doing their thing, I know I rarely notice anyone while I'm doing cardio. But there's a big room at the back with the weights, full of fit…

Hip joint in agony
Has anybody ever heard of anything like this? Each morning, after laying all night, my right hip is killing me, but only when I put my weight on it by walking. I limp my way to the kitchen to make coffee, it's very painful. When I sit though the pain is gone, it only hurts while I'm putting weight on it. Then after about…

Rest day
do you have to have one or is it ok to do an hour of cardio every day? I really love going to the gym every day, I don't want a day off unless I can't go for some reason

Spring break
ugh, having the kids home this week is really affecting my workout routine. Anyone else?

Is it normal?
to be freezing cold a few hours after working out? I've not worked out for about five years until this week. And as I was shivering the other day I remembered I used to feel that way before. Could it be because I'm just starting out again? I can't remember if this feeling continued or not last time

Brit in the USA
hi I moved to the U.S. 3 years ago and since gained 41lbs, I'd love to blame America and their yummy bad food, but no one forced me to eat crap, it's 100% my fault Back in 2010 in England, I'd lost 70lbs but gained 25 of that back before I even moved here, I'm sure you can imagine how disappointed in myself I am. Anyway,…
