Exercise Games
Does anyone else play video games for exercise? I've had Beat Saber for a while and recently got Ring Fit (but haven't played it yet). Studies show that you burn 6-9 calories per minute while playing Beat Saber. Based on my smartwatch, I burn roughly 200 calories in 30 minutes of playing. I would assume that you burn even…

Building up to C25K
Starting next week (if the weather cooperates), I plan on starting to walk a few times a week after dinner. I'd like to work up to doing C25K eventually, but I'm currently too out of shape to keep up with the program. Currently, I know I can walk about a half mile before needing to take a rest. Its pretty pitiful, but…

Warframe
Does anyone else play Warframe? If so, which warframes are your favorites? I play on PS4. My favorite frames are Saryn Prime, Mesa Prime, and Equinox. If you haven'ts checked out Warframe, I highly suggest it. It is completely free and available on all consoles and PC. The game can be a bit hard to get started in, but its…

Meal Prep Suggestions
I'd like to get started with meal prepping once or twice a week for 2 people. What are your favorite recipes or websites for meal prepping? Thanks in advance! As an additional note, my fiance is a Type I diabetic, so lower carb meals are preferred. A side of rice or pasta is okay, but the whole meal shouldn't consist of…

Fitness Boxing for the Nintendo Switch just came out on Friday . There is a demo version that you can download for free that includes a 3 day trial. I tested it out last night and I was able to work up quite a sweat after playing a few rounds. The game teaches you the standard stance and movements in boxing. It presents…

Which Activity Level Should I Choose?
I am a computer technician at a high school. I spend some time at my desk, but I also walk around the school doing repairs and helping employees. Some days there is more sitting, some days more walking. It really depends on what's going on that day. I haven't been going to the gym lately, so I am getting no activity from…

PF Workout Suggestions
I just joined the new Planet Fitness that opened in my town. Its been a few years since I've been to a gym. I am currently 214 pounds. I am very out of shape. I have problems with my knees, so I need to keep any exercises low-impact. I prefer lifting over cardio, but I do realize that I need to do some cardio to help…

Savory Oat Recipes?
I've been seeing Savory Oat recipes on Pinterest and I've decided to give them a try. I bought myself some steel-cut oatmeal to start with. What add-ins do you like in your savory oats? I'm looking for some ideas.

Best Affordable Protein Powders
I’m looking for protein powder that is affordable (under $30) and tastes good with just water/milk. I might add it to smoothies and such at times, but I’ll probably drink it plain most of the time. I also want something that dissolves well in cold liquids. I am not picky about which flavor it is. I just want it to taste…

Post your weekly goals! These can be weight loss goals, cutting back on a certain food, exercising more, etc. Examples: 1. I want to lose 1 lb. this week. 2. I'm not going to eat any chips this week. 3. I'm going to walk a mile a day.

How to get started running?
To be honest, I'm not sure if I'll stick with this. But, I do want to try. I need some advice though, because I'm not sure where to begin. I'm 202 pounds. I would like to weigh 150. I'm very out of shape and I doubt I could run 50 ft. before getting out of breath. I have a very hard time with lowering food consumption, so…
