Feel like I'm doing it wrong
Okay so now that I figured out the right thing to search on this forums, disregard the part about measurement/weight gain and skip down to the "do I have bad form" part!

Not sore; am I doing it wrong?
I'm not experiencing a lot of soreness after workouts, not even on the day after. I'm in Phase 1, just finished Workout A (8) on Tuesday. I'm squatting between 75 and 95 lbs, and I'm deadlifting between 85 and 105. My shoulder presses, lunges and step ups are between 20 & 25 lb dumbells in each hand, my rows are between 75…

Infamous = Parkour
I've been back playing Infamous again because I needed a breather after 12 hours of GTA V. Is it just me or does anyone else notice that Cole is basically a Parkour champion? No spoilers, though, I'm only partway done with the storyline. *fitness goal = clambering up buildings at top speed* *fitness goal = some radioactive…

What do you do on off days?
I try to do cardio on non-bodyweight days. Usually a 20-minute walk but I also did a workout video this week that I like - it's Jessica Smith on YouTube and I did her chair cardio workout (which made my arms hurt soooooooooooooooo bad) because I'm trying to give my knee a rest. What about you guys, what do you do on your…

I was doing it wrong!
I watched the video again and apparently, I wasn't supposed to be resting 2 minutes between each exercise, but between each *round* of exercises! No wonder I was feeling like it was a pretty easy workout (and it was taking me an hour and a half, lol). So! I've learned: A) Watch the whole damn video when looking something…

How to Find Your Tab for Tracking
I've added a script to the Google Spreadsheet to help you find your tab (once the list gets really long and things might get out of order). At the top of the spreadsheet, find the "Tasks" menu option. Click it and you'll see "Go to sheet...". Click that and a scrolling list of all sheets in the document will show up - just…

THIS IS A NOVEL: Understanding my TDEE
I'm going to TL:DR from the start because this is going to be a novel: I'm a math nerd and I want someone to look at my numbers and see if what I'm saying makes sense. Also, I want to use MFP (+ RunKeeper, etc.) as the accurate tracking tool it should be. Hey everybody. I'm having a really hard time understanding what my…

Fit 2 Fat calculator is confusing...
This is what the Fat2Fit calculator says for me: Is the "How Many Calories" part calculated based on the 1545 or the 1283? Ultimately, should I be using the 1283 and doing the TDEE math based on that? ETA: Link - http://www.fat2fitradio.com/tools/bmr/

Neeeeeeeeeeerd Girl
I've been on MFP for a long time, but just re-started last week. I'm a nerd girl looking to be a healthy nerd girl. At the very least I had to curb my happy-eating after starting a new relationship last year. We've been together almost a year and I think maybe it's time I rein it in. :) Anyway, I've lost 3 pounds so far…
