Training Plan?
Hey guys, just curious as to what your training plans are for race season? I found this plan recently, and thought it was pretty good. Personally, I think it depends on the race whether or not you are fully prepared in 8 weeks, but I like the idea. Do you have a special training plan in place?…

Early fatigue while running?
Question for my fellow runners: Sometimes while running, I kick *kitten*. I can go for long distances/times and feel great. Sometimes though, I will get on the treadmill or trail, and feel like it's the first time I've ever ran. I'll be so tired and fatigued that I can barely kick out 2 miles. Usually when this happens, I…

How sore is too sore?
I had a super rough MT class yesterday, and got the living crap kicked in my leg (right outer calf). I'm not bruised, but it hurts to walk, a little swollen, and feels like a bad *kitten* leg cramp. I'm not worried about it, but when you do get kicked like that, do you push through your work outs the following day , or…

Heavy Bag Training Questions?
So I got my bag Saturday, and won't have a chance to ask my trainer any questions until this Saturday, so maybe you guys can help. When doing a heavy bag workout, are you supposed to wear wraps under your gloves? I have 12oz gloves, and was curious if I needed to wrap my wrists also? We don't wear wraps in class, but we…

Punching bag for Muay Thai
I am looking to get a punching bag this weekend for Muay Thai. Does anyone have any recommendations as to brand or size? I think i will go with a "banana bag" instead of the standard punching bag, but I imagine there is more to it than that...? thanks!

Question for all you Awesome Successful Peeps!
I am just beginning my journey, 5 weeks in, 7.5 pounds lost so far. And while I feel pretty good about that, I can't help but worry I am going to have a hard time getting to my goal (64 pounds lost) by just exercising and eating very sensibly. I know it will take a while, and I'm totally cool with that, I just want to make…

Sooo Tired!
I have been eating right and exercising for 1 month now, and have lost 6 lbs. Yay! However, I am flipping exhausted! I get up at 5am, and try to keep going until 9pm, on a good day. By the time my head hits the pillow I'm out! I thought exercising and eating better give you more energy? I'm typically "ok" throughout the…

Silly Question
I am a little confused. Lets say your calorie consumption is set at 1200 per day, and you eat your 1200 calories. Lets also say that you just worked out that evening, burning 300 calories. On MFP, it will say you have a net of 300 calories (the ones you just burned off). Are you supposed to eat those calories back? I keep…
