"Diet Day"....
or whatever you might call it. How do you allocate your calories? Do you have 1 meal and a snack? 2 meals and a snack? 3+ mini meals/snacks? I'm on my second week of the Every Other Day Diet...

Biggest Surprise
So I've been using the BM Link for about 2 weeks now. I knew that when I got it and started looking at the data there would be some surprises, such as how much energy is required to burn cals, etc. Since I'm away from home roughly 12 hours a day and sit at a desk most of the time, I knew getting in lots of steps and…

What Moves YOU?
Clearly music for me makes all the difference between a good workout and a great workout, especially for cardio... Usually there is one particular song(s) that gets you to dig deep, get the adrenaline going, and feel the burn... Mine is definately More (RedOne Jimmy Joker Remix) by Usher...

I void to change and was going to start a bootcamp when "Suprise!…
