Suggest your heart rate monitor
I'm thinking of finally getting a heart rate monitor for Christmas. I will do some research on which one will seem like the best one for me but was also looking to get some suggestions. I don't want to spend tons but don't want something cheap that won't work either. What's the one you use, why did you choose it and how…

Back at it again for good this time
Starting today I'm jumping back in not only with fitness, running and working out out but also changing my way of eating. I hope I don't give up on myself, it's like I think I will fail so I give up before I even have the chance to bust through the walls of failure. One day at a time, one step in front of the other I will…

Looking for advice after Insanity
So I'm totally lost and looking for advice and opinions. I just did the first day of week 1 of Jillian Michaels Ripped In 30.

Insanity Question

Heart Rate Monitor
I want to get a heart rate monitor but I'm not sure which one is the best. I don't want to spend a ton of money but also don't want to get one that is cheap and doesn't work. I also would like to know if it's possible to get one that doesn't have a chest strap or if they all have one. Any advice will help greatly.…

How to log Insanity
I don't have a heart rate monitor (although I would love to get one if anyone has a great suggestion on the best one to get), so I was wondering how should I log my Insanity workout on MFP? Should I just log it as circuit training?

Jillian Michaels Yoga Meltdown
Has anyone on here done this workout video? I'm feeling a little under the weather today and don't want to skip a workout but was looking to do something that is a little less strenuous.

How do you log your water
This may seem like a weird question but how do you log your water intake? I drink my water from a bottle that is 16 oz so when I drink a full bottle I log it as 2 glasses of water. I do this because aren't you supposed to be drinking about 8 glasses of 8oz water each day? Just curious how you log your water by ounces or…

I'm currently in week 8 of the 9 week couch to 5k program. Since I'm so close to finishing I was just thinking what to do after. Is there a 10k program? What did everyone else who finished this program do? Did you do it again just try to go faster? Just continue to run 3 days a week at 30 minutes each day? Just add a…

Finished day 3 week 5 of c25k
I have never been a runner. I was never good at it and never really liked it. I started this c25k program on purpose because I knew how hard it would be and I wanted the challenge.
