Does anyone use the fitness buddy app?
Friend just showed me this app. It may be the best workout app I've ever seen. You can select categories like core, arms, back shoulders, legs...etc. and each one will show you multiple exercises with animation and text. You can also target specific muscles or they have full workouts set up depending on what skill level…

Where do I go from here? HELP
I'm sorry for it being long winded. So I'm trying to get myself back into the swing of things, but not only do I have a lack of focus, I have a lack of direction too. I was doing great for a while but when I reached my "goal" I basically stopped trying. I have a lot of reasons for stopping, but none of them are good enough…

The one book everyone should read?!?
What is it? Truthfully I'm not a book worm at all. I tend to get board when I read unless its a amazing book. So I'm looking for a great book that I can read, especially if its a classic. What should it be? BTW I'm a guy so no "Fifty Shades of Grey" haha

Burned calories and math????? How much do you really burn?
So if the average person burns 2000 calories a day (83.33 a hour). And walking at 3 mph for 60 minutes burns 307 calories. Does that take in effect the 83.333 calories you've already burnt in that hour? Or in reality you only burned 223.67 calories? I know this is not an important question but this is how my brain works,…

Walking burns as much as running per mile!?!?
Great article on this subject. http://www.runnersworld.com/article/0,7120,s6-242-304-311-8402-0,00.html Though if you're not in the mood to read. The article basically says running burns almost twice as much as walking. The male subjects burned 105 calories running, 52 walking in 1,600 meters (almost a mile) and the women,…

The balance between eating healthy and enjoying things.
This may seem like an easy problem to solve for some, but for others its an issue. It is in our nature to indulge in certain things, sweets, greasy foods, salty treats etc... Though where do we draw the line? Where is the balance? For me personally I doubt I could ever be a strict vegan or "clean" eater. I enjoy eating and…
