Vegetables and Wind!

Ladies, how heavy?
Hey everyone. I recently started a bodytone class, where we use a barbell. The instructor fitted me with two 5kg weights to begin and for the class we did different excercises.

What is excercise?
Hey guys, Im reading up about tdee and trying to get a general idea of calories I should be eating daily. I jog 5km once a week (5k in 35mins) and I walk to work 5 days a week which is 5km in 50mins, where Im on my feet working in a shop. Is that considered active? Would you think thats ligthly active or moderately? Thanks…
