Stronglifts or Starting Strength
I'm currently one workout away from completing stage 1 of NROL4W, however I'm not sure I want to continue with stage 2. Reason being, there is movement away from the big lifts and into more obscure exercises, and I am really enjoying the two big lifts I am doing (squat and deadlift). I am considering Starting Strength or…

My Dog's Food is Paleo :O
Actually, so is my cats' food. Now I have a problem. The problem is twofold: 1) Does this mean the f*ckers are going to outlive me now? I eat lots of carbs, I'm concerned that they may outlive me and will have no one to take care of when I die of sugar overdose. What should I do about this? 2) The ingredients are…

Oooo Chicken and Salad!
I <3 u guise and you're always consistent in giving me positive feedback so I thought I'd run this past you. So I was pondering how to make my chicken salads (you know meal sized salad with the grilled chicken on top) more flavourful.

Critique this advice from the trainer at the gym for me
I want to start strength training. The last time I was in a gym was 10 years ago, I don't remember anything about how to use machines or proper form or all that. I've been reading what you've all recommended and said regarding lift heavy, low reps for us girls. So I went into the gym and told the trainer this is kind of…

Hold me, I'm skeered!
I'm cold and there's wolves after me! But really, today is my first day of the Learn to Run program at my local running club. I did one day of c25k last week and nearly died. So I'm very nervous about tonight. Pointers for brand new runners? Particularly those that run outdoors in -30.

Need help with diary please.
I've been on a 1200 cal/day goal since I started on Dec 17 in an effort to lose weight. The BMR calculator put me at 1347 cals, so today I readjusted my calorie goal to 1400. Apparently this went back and changed my calorie goal all the way back to the beginning, so it looks like I've been undereating significantly the…

Runners: Outdoors in snow, rain, muck?
I'm just starting to run. I bought a new pair of shoes today, some pretty Asics Gel-nimbus 13's. I'm going to be running outside pretty much exclusively, so how can I protect the shoes from the elements? Is silicone spray ok or does that effect the breathability? Any other suggestions? I'd like them to last longer than a…
