What toning exercises do you do at home?
Hi all, I have some pretty good cardio workouts at home, even though I haven't really been putting them to good use, but i feel that today is going to be the beginning of the change i really need. I used to enjoy exercising, so I hope to get back to that. I would like to add some weight exercises to my workout, but right…

Decided to start over!
Today is my Day 1! I did a pretty good job on the program for 10 weeks, and then the summer hit...and all that hard work went out the window! I didn't gain too much back, but my motivation and strict schedule definitely didn't hold up to my summer time when I'm off for almost 3 months. So i'm back on the bandwagon today.…

What is your favorite Turbofire workout so far?
I am on Week 2 Day 5, and yesterday, I did Fire 45! So far, it is one of my favorites! I really like Fire 30, but i guess the music and moves in the Fire 45 get me really pumped up! I wake up with "Oohh I got your boyfriend, i got your man!" LOL! How about you? Which one is your favorite Turbofire workout?

Turbo Confessions
The past couple of weeks have been pretty tough! I've had to drive back and forth to Miami for wedding, wedding stuff, and baby showers. Needless to say that my exercise has been kind of off. Now, we are going to New York next weekend for 5 days, and I don't know how appropriate it would be for me to be doing Turbofire…

90 or 120?!
Just realized that this program is 20 weeks, which means it is NOT 90 days right? SO why is it that I mostly hear people do 12 weeks? Is it just me? Has everyone here done the full 20 weeks or just 90 days?

Core 20
Hey everyone! I know how most of you have been on here saying that you don't really like the Core 20 and Tone 30 (which i actually forgot to do with my HIIT 15 last week...oops!) but i must say that I did the Core 20 on Saturday and it felt so good. I still feel a little sore in some areas and I know that it will work…

Zumba Fitness 2
Just wanted to know if any of you have played this game? If so, have you done a ful length class? What songs have you put together to get the best workout or most calories burned? I feel like some of those "high intensity" songs aren't all that intense....and that some of the medium ones are! Just wanted to see what has…

Spit or Swallow?
This is the game where you name a food, and then the next person will reply by saying if they would spit this food out, or swallow it. Once they say what they would do with the food, they need to add a new food to their post for the next poster...so on and so forth! Here we go! - Turnips?

Fitbit vs HRM?
Hey! I am in the process of trying to find out which product is a better buy for me to count calories throughout the day. I've seen that pretty much the HRM only calculates calories during cardiovascular workouts...i work in the school system as an SLP and walk a lot during the day. I was thinking about getting a HRM until…

Weigh-ins?
How many times a week do you weigh in? Is there a specific reason for this? I know a lot of people weigh in once a week, and while I believe that is good, I wonder if I should weigh in maybe midweek to see how i'm doing, and if not, then maybe change some things around to get back on track. What has worked for you? Is…

Thanksgiving Mini Goal Team Anyone?
I figured that maybe I could find a few people that would like to team up for a mini goal for Thanksgiving that they would like to try their best and achieve. We would have to give accountability to one another at least twice a week; try and hit the gym at least 3 times, and definitely keep under calorie count on most…

Friends for encouragement?
Hi! I recently re-joined MFP to get back on track with eating healthy, and exercising regularly. I just had a baby 3 months ago and between taking care of him and trying to eat right and exercise, it's been kind of hard. I'm just tired of being at a standstill with this weight.

Only drinking water?
Hey everyone, Do you guys only drink water or do you drink other things? I have only been drinking water for the past few days and think it has helped a lot.

Any tips? I'm at a loss!
Hey everyone, I'm trying my best to get back into the groove of things and start eating healthy and exercising on the regular.
