setting new goals after injury
I've recently been diagnosed with a stress fracture in my hip and am looking at 6 weeks of no running and then 4-6 weeks of rehabilitation (oh the joys...) this means missing out on my spring marathon and possibly a June half-marathon soooo, to keep my busy during my rest, does anyone have any advice on setting new goals…

hip stress fracture >> no exercise
Hey I was diagnosed with a hip stress fracture last week and have been told to spend as little time on my feet as possible for 4-6 weeks. At the moment (hopefully not for too long....) that includes doing no upper body exercises either, even sat down. Previously I was a long-distance runner (logging 30 miles a week) with…

advice on hip fracture or bursitis

rest days and 'resting'
hey, I was just wondering how many of you do no exercise on your rest days? I find this very hard to do, I get sort of itchy haha. I also want (and tend to) eat more - which in the long run doesn't matter because it all balances out anyway. I have quite a structured, intense exercise schedule with a maximum of 2 full rest…

water weight questions
hey, what do people think - according to the scale (which I know isn't that accurate!) I have gained 8lbs in about 2 weeks, though I can't really see where it is haha. I know it's been Christmas though I haven't gone all out and I don't weigh every day. Likely to be water weight? If so, what are your experiences in how…

last 5lbs and eating more
I'm looking to lose my last 5 lbs (again haha). I'm a runner and athlete so I burn roughly 300-800 calories 4-6 days a week and measure everything meticulously. I looked back at my weight loss when I was a couple of lbs heavier, in February/March (yep, long time yo-yoing!) and saw that I was netting 1300-1800 calories a…
