Running alone in the dark
So I want to start running in the mornings because of the cooler temperatures vs after work but I'm having a bit of anxiety about it. It'll be around 4:00 am in the pitch black, no street lights and a pretty much deserted roadway. Other than a reflective vest and not having my music up as loud as I'd like is there any…

Age preference...
Just wondering if everyone had an age preference of the people they're attracted to. I tend to go for younger guys and can honestly say I've never been w/ an older man. I guess I'm just a cougar in training. haha What about everyone else?

Need guidance
I just want to make sure that I'm on the right track. I just upped my calories for the past week to be at a 15% cut (or pretty darn close) and the scale has went up 3 pounds already. Is this normal?

Supplements
What are some of the supplements that you swear by and take religiously? I'm trying to see if there are somethings that I should be adding to my daily intake that I've never thought of before.

30 Day Shred & Insanity - too much?
I just finished my Insanity program and want to start it over again but also want to do JM's 30 day shred. Is the 30 day shred that intense that I shouldn't mix it with Insanity (Insanity in the AM and 30DS in the PM)? Just trying to see if I'm over reaching or not!

Multiple rounds of Insanity
For those of you that have done more than 1 round of Insanity...did you redo the Recovery week between round 1 & 2 or did you just go straight back into the month 1 workouts? I'm going to finish my 1st round this weekend and want to start a 2nd round but not sure if I should do a recovery week or just jump back in. Any…

My weight has spiked this week drastically and I'm wondering if this is a temporary thing until my body adjusts or is this going to derail everything that I've already lost. Any help would be…
