Woah.....month two!!
Just completed the max plyo (day 2 of month 2) and HOLY COW!! These moves are insane! There is just no other word to describe it! I got through it, but there were a few moves that I was only able to do a few reps of..... It's a very weird feeling, because I don't know if I am completely excited for the rest of this month…

Who is telling you what you "should" weigh?
How much should I weigh anyways? I've always used BMI charts for answering "what I should weigh", but I also know BMI doesn't account for muscle mass. So what do you use to determine what you "should" weigh?.....And for that matter, should I even have a weight goal or just focus on inches lost? I'm 20 years old, 5'4" and…

Started 11/21/12 Any others?
I've started insanity before when I first bought it (almost a year ago) but ran into some knee pain.....long story short, I'm cleared from physical therapy and ready to go!! I am currently a little over a week into the program, and I would love some company, or just to hear some success stories from people who competed it!

Remaining Calories vs. Cinnamon Roll.....?

Insanity!!
Hey all, I know this question has been asked before, but I couldn't find it so...... without a heart rate monitor, how do I calculate how many calories I burn during each of the insanity workouts? Is there a reliable website or something? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Carbs: too much of a good thing?
Hey, so I know there are "good" carbs and "bad" carbs out there. The "good" ones (the complex carbs) come from things like whole wheat and fruits and vegetables. Well, because of my schedule, I am usually gone from my house from 8 am to 8 pm. So in an effort to snack healthy, I like to bring things like bananas, carrots,…

Marathon-ers and Half Marathon-ers Advice please!!
So I'm considering trying to complete a half marathon this year in the beginning of July. I have participated in soccer and general running off and on for the last 5 years or so, but definitely have a serious love-hate relationship with running. I've never trained for any sort of race before, and don't know if expecting a…

I'm trying to get my motivation muscle working.....
Hey there! I'm a sophomore at the University of Montana this year and heard of MFP through word of mouth. I figured I really had nothing to lose (except for possibly some unwanted weight) by switching things up and trying an online program such as this. I have to admit, I'm pretty skeptical. The LAST thing I need is one…
