What Does Your Favorite NFL Team Need Next Week
Hey all. Since this is a new group, I thought I'd make an easy topic to start things off. Next week is the NFL Draft. What do you think is your favorite team's most pressing need to address?

LOVE THE STEELERS DRAFT PICKS!
Talk about grading out great on the draft. The best guard in the draft in the first round, a 6-7 monster tackle in the second, an explosive inside linebacker in the third, a bigger/younger Casey Hampton-like nose tackle in the fourth. . . gotta love it. I don't know another team who excels in the draft and stays away from…

Heart Rate Monitor
Hey all, I need to replace my Polar FT7 Heart Rate Monitor. I prefer one with the chest strap since they seem to be more accurate. Also, I'd like the ability to interface with MFP, if possible.

Initial Goal Met
I'm not one to start topics but today I'm really pleased. Every six months at work we have a little good fun and all hop on a scale and make goals for the next weigh in. Well, on January 2, I weighed in at 271 lbs. Boy was I pissed and disappointed in myself. I had never been that heavy in my life. In fact, that was almost…

Calories Burned During Strength Training
How do you go about estimating the amount of calories burned while lifting weights? MFP has good estimates for Cardio workouts but nothing for Strength Training. It'd be good to get an idea of just how many calories are being burned during a full workout.

First Goal Reached!!!!!
First goal reached!!! Had a pair of Levi's in the laundry room that didn't fit anymore. Washed them, threw them in the dryer and then put them on to go out. 40 inch waist! I have a pair of 38s ready to go. That's my motivation. :happy: :happy: :happy:
