Rockin' Body Dance on Sale! Thoughts??
I saw the Shaun T Rockin' Body Dance workout was on sale for $19.95 +s/h. I searched the forums, but didn't see a thread where anyone had actually used it. Going into winter I'm always up for diversity in my dvd's, but literally can't tell if it's worth it or not. Would love to hear from anyone who has tried it.

T25 and knee issues question
I searched and couldn't find an answer to my question, so maybe someone here can help. I workout at the gym, but would like to have some DVD's at home. On advice of people who have done them, I have steered clear of Insanity and P90X due to rehabing a torn ACL. Its been a year now, but I still have pain if there is too…

Can anyone recommend good fitness or weight loss blogs?
I get most of the fitness magazine (Self, Shape, Fitness), but I am always on the lookout for new ideas (hello Pinterest!!). Anyone have any good blogs they would recommend?

Hey Runners - Is a HRM a need??
I am new to running (training for a half marathon). At this point I want "needs" not "wants". I have read that a GPS watch is a "need" since its easier to see/judge your progress mid-run than your iPhone. Makes sense. However, other say you need a GPS watch that also had a HRM chest strap. So, my question is: Is the HRM…

JCORE?
Has anyone tried JCORE? I like the idea of doing 20 minute workouts in the morning before work (not a morning person!!), but it is expensive. Thoughts? Reviews? Anything would be helpful! Thanks!

Migraines. F@*#-ing migraines.
Hello, my name is Terri and I am a migraine sufferer. I take medications (both prescription and OTC), I try and eat right, I exercise, and I am even going to try Botox if my insurance goes through. Basically, I am not looking for what to do about migraines, I have my neurologist for that. What I want is to see if there is…

Zombie, Run! 5K question.
I want to start Z25K in June. I don't want spoilers of the story or workouts, but I still have a question. It says it is an 8-week program. Is that 3x/week? 4x? I'm just trying to get an idea of how to plan my time around an already scheduled Body Pump class and the gym (and life!). Thanks in advance!!

Returned the FitBit Flex for a FitBit One
For all those debating the FitBit Flex, I will tell you my experience. I really wanted to like the Flex! I had been checking the website religiously to see when it would come out, and when I saw my local Best Buy had it I drove there immediately. I had a FitBit Ultra, but the fact that it couldn't sync with my iPhone was…

FitBit Users: How important is tracking stairs to you?
I have the original FitBit. I love the little bugger, but it not having Bluetooth to sync with my phone is starting to be a deal breaker for me. I am on my iPad almost exclusively now, so getting my laptop and syncing is a pain, plus I don't do it daily so I don't get to see my stats. You want to call me lazy? Go ahead, I…

Rebounder/Mini Trampoline
I have read multiple places that a rebounder gives you a great workout, is good for your heart, etc. But, I have never known anyone who actually uses one. Anyone here have one and use it?? Thoughts? (And yes, I bought one, but right now its just sitting in my living room staring at me because I am not really sure what the…

Question for people with both BodyMedia and a HRM.
I have a BodyMedia that I wear all day, every day. Just got a HRM (Polar FT40), because I am starting to get more serious about exercise. The HRM's are suppose to be more accurate for that. Anyway, here's the question: I take my BodyMedia off while I exercise and have the HRM on. After I workout I log the exercise calories…

How do you get in 10,000 steps with a desk job??
The goal is 10,000 steps a day, so I'm looking for ideas here! I already do the following (1) park in a far spot, (2) take stairs and not elevator, (3) try to get a few steps in every hour, and then I take a walk after work. 6,000 to 7,000 is my average. Tomorrow I am going to start walking a mile at lunch no matter how…

Wifi scale
I don't see where this has been discussed for awhile, so I will ask my question. No throwing things if it is a repeat! I am contemplating getting a wifi scale. Looking to see which is better, the Withings or the Aria. Both sync with the FitBit, but I think only Withings syncs with more 3rd party apps. Thoughts? About…

Do you wear your BodyMedia when you sleep?
I just got a BodyMedia. Love it so far, but not sure if I see the benefit in sleeping in it. Thoughts?

Help for gym-phobia!!!!
I met with a personal trainer today to get a list of machines I should be using, and how to use them. The only other people using the machines were 20-year-old buff people. No other over 40 fatty to be seen! Now, I have fairly good self esteem, and I realize I probably didn't even hit their radar as they were working out.…

Has anyone done both the 30DS and S90? I have questions!
Ok - I am overweight and out of shape! Period. That's why I am here. I have been walking on the treadmill, but want to kick it up a notch, or 20 notches. Anyway, if you have done both 30 Day Shred and the Supreme 90 would you suggest I go straight into the S90 or start with the 30SD? I am motivated and determined to…

How often do you weigh yourself? Is it motivating?
I have heard many schools of thought on how often to weigh yourself. But, I'd love to hear how people use it as a motivation. Do you weigh daily and track the little ups and downs? Weekly?

Christmas, again... but...
I've never posted here, and laugh that MFP tells me I have no friends. Ha! Then again tried posting on the FitBit site and no one wants to talk to me! Maybe I will better luck here!! Anyway, I bought a FitBit last February and started using MFP after seeing my Christmas pictures last year. Not good. So for 9+ months I have…
