What would you consider my activity level to be?
Okay, so I heard this thing where one can be super active as far as exercise is concerned (for example, running every morning, then doing insanity every night, or playing a sport 6 days a week), BUT if they have a desk job, their activity level will STILL be sedentary regardless of how active they are outside of work. Is…

T25 modified workouts-effective?
If I do JUST the modified workouts every single day will I still get dramatic results? I know it won't be the exact same as if I were to do the moves with higher intensity, but would it still deliver noticeable results? I'm not saying I'm gonna do that, but I'm just wondering lol...

Can I exercise if I didn't sleep at all the night before
So last night I got like, NO sleep at all. I didn't stay up late or drink anything that would keep me awake. I've literally tried to sleep for the past 8 hours, but nothing worked. I kept tossing and turning, hoping that I could sleep...but it just wouldn't come...eventually I had to get out of bed and get ready for work.…

Gained 10 lbs but look thinner? Only doing cardio
Okay, I know most of you are going to say it's muscle lol... But okay so I weighed 135, and ate right, and even created a calorie deficit (not below 1200, though), and I maintained that weight for a while. Then I started Shaun T's Focus t25, and ate the same, but GAINED 10 pounds after two weeks on the program. :( But…

Not tired after workout, do I still burn a lot of calories?
Is it normal for me to not feel tired after working out? I mean like, do I have to FEEL tired in order to burn a lot of calories? I usually do feel tired and I pant and sweat and everything O_O But today I did 45 minutes of zumba, 25 min of 30 day shred level 2, and 20 minutes of strength training, and this is MORE than I…

Calories question (Metabolism and calorie intake)
So according to most BMR calculators, my body burns approximately 2,150 calories a day, as a moderately active person. My question is, is this how much I NEED to eat if I'm going to be working out? Or is this how much my body burns INCLUDING the workout? Like, for example, I consumed exactly 2,650 calories (500 calories…

Can I treat water like calories? Pls read for further info
So just like calories, i know there's a certain recommendation on how much water to drink a day (it varies from person to person, and depends on one's activity level, climate, diet, etc) ...so I was wondering, if I missed the requirement on a certain day, could I make up for it the next day and have everything go back to…

30 Day Shred-Does this modification sound like a good idea?
So I do like 30 day shred, and I've done it for about 10 days straight one time and saw GREAT results with how my body looked. I never looked so toned in my life after just 10 days. Unfortunately I had to stop because of my changing work hours and just a lot of family issues going on. Anyways, I'm gonna start again!!! But…

I do know that doing 30DS with other…

Share your 30DS (for ppl only doing 30DS, nothing else)
So I've seen a lot of results on MFP with people doing 30DS, but most of them were doing something else along with it (like C25K or ripped i n 30). I do know that doing 30DS with other exercises will give maximum results, and I plan to do that as well, but I wanna see results of people who did JUST 30 Day shred, and…

Does only two days of not eating slow metabolism
If I don't eat for two days, but just drink water, will my metabolism slow down? I know metabolism slows down OVER TIME, but just how long would it take until it really slows down? Is two days still considered a short amount of time? I'm not anorexic, or anything. I'm just fasting for church, but I also work out a lot and…

Taking a 1-2 day break from 30 day shred due to huge boil
I just started Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred the other day and am LOVING it...I was surprised that I had been able to get through level 1 with weights the whole time, considering that I'm not exactly that fit....it really kicked my butt, though. Anyways, after the workout, I realized that my boil (which I thought was a…

Can I eat at night?! (Please Read Explanation)
So I had my meals all planned out for the day, and I left some of the food I was planning to eat for today in my fridge at work, so i wouldn't have to bring more tupperwares and stuff. It all equaled to 1,200 (which is the minimum amount that should be consumed by females)...and I work from 8AM to 6PM. However, when I got…
