Life after P90X3?
For those that have completed a cycle of P90X3: How (if at all) do you incorporate any of the P90X3 workouts into your regular exercise? I will finish in another 4 weeks, and then I will need to start training for a pack march in the spring. I'll need to start doing more endurance cardio (loooong walks/jogs), but continue…

Healthy lunchbox protein idea for my almost-vegetarian son
My eldest just started school, and I need some healthy lunch protein ideas. He likes meat, but really just grill meat (steak, pork chops, chicken breast, salmon). He doesn't much like deli meat of any kind (I've tried), nor sandwiches (unless just jelly and bread). He doesn't like peanut butter (I don't see how this is…

P90X3 - TDEE calculation
I'm getting kind of tired trying to calculate exercise calories, and since I'm going to start P90X3 tomorrow (!), I've been thinking about switching to the TDEE -20% method. I know the answer could be as simple as "try both ways and see", but I wanted to check with the group: would you consider P90X3 to be moderate or…

P90X3 - which version to buy?
I'm looking to buy P90X3, and I'd like to see what experience anyone here has with the various versions available. From what I can tell, there is: - Regular version, with the basic work outs - Deluxe edition, adding a "bonus" DVD with 3 workouts, resistance bands, and some supplements - Elite/extreme edition, adding to the…

Distance tracked by Fitbit doesn't match actual distance
I walked/jogged 5.7 miles this morning (by GPS), but my fitbit registered just under 10K steps (I think b/c I am increasing my speed, and so taking longer strides with each step) for around 4 miles. Should it matter? I feel like the calories it sent to MFP for adjustment (575 for the day, for 14K total steps) might be a…

How often to track BF% and measurements
For those of you that track these things: Searching through the old topics, I saw someone say not to track BF% more often than every 6-12 weeks. Is this the general consensus here? How about measurements - weekly? Biweekly? I've lost quite a bit, but my final goal will depend more on body composition than the number on the…

200 day streak
I meant to post on here when I reached the 6 months mark, but now I'm at 200 days, which is another nice, round number. I signed on originally back in December 2012, shortly after having my 3rd child (in 38 mos!), but didn't do much. Lost 10 pounds quickly, but was too hungry all the time with nursing to really be able to…

Weight training @ home
Can someone point me to a link or article that gives a good, basic, total body weight training regimen to do at home? I have lost nearly 40 pounds and have another 40 or so to go. I want to start incorporating strength training in a more focused manner. For those of you familiar with the Leslie Sansone empire, I've been…

Body fat scale and body fat goals
Hello all. I'm currently at 199.4 (hooray for the 100's), with my most recent BF check at 39.4% with a weight @ the time of 203.4. That was a weight done first thing in the morning, without having had any water or exercise yet. The thing is, according to this calculator - https://www.myrebody.com/weightlosscalculator - if…

Quad soreness - exercise through it or rest?
I've been gradually increasing my exercise over the past two months. From none, to 1-2 days per week, to 3-4 times per week, to 5-6 times per week for the last 2 weeks. This week I decided to incorporate some strength training, because I think I'm at the point where I need to start doing that if I'm going to continue to…
