military workouts
Hi! I'm interested in military service (Marine, specifically) and need to lose thirty-ish pounds to meet weight requirements. I also need more stamina and speed with running, as well as to increase my pushup skills (I can do 20 in a row but no more). I have been lifting weights for about a year, and run off and on (right…

Thoughts on P90x for EM2WLers
Any EM2WLers currently doing P90x? Thoughts? Is it too "cardio based"? (Or was that Insanity?) Good enough of a weight training program to build muscle? Or don't waste my time and money on it? Feedback appreciated. :) I'm thinking about biting the bait but wanted to see what others have to say.

Is bulking the only way to go, or could someone consistently weight train forever if they don't want an enormous amount of muscle but still want to look "toned"? Hit me with anything and everything you know about these mysterious newbie gains and how to…

What started you on the path to eating more?
I'll never forget what prompted me...be warned...LOL, it's a sob story. :sad: I gained 60 pounds in a relatively short amount of time (like, 4 months), after switching from basically not eating (hi Ed!) to eating 600 cals a day. :noway: I thought maybe my thyroid was out of whack 'cause seriously, what else could I blame…

Thread for those who have gained 15+ pounds in the reset
Yep, that's me. The scale told me 17.2 this morning, which on a smaller frame like mine doesn't exactly look too great. Nevertheless, I KNOW I can push through 3 or 4 more weeks if it means a lifetime of actually liking what I see in the mirror in the long run. I'm not sure what the point of this is thread is, except maybe…

Weight Training without weights? Noob question!
Hi there! I'm sorta new to this...about one and a half weeks in the full Mebabolism Reset, and pretty much am a cardioholic through and through. Running and kickboxing are my workouts of choice, although mostly because I have no access, funds, or space to devote to weights equipment. I recently found a website that offers…
