I weigh myself on the same surface right next to each other on…

I was definitely doing more cardio than strength training, so this week I decided to start…

Calories burnt in tabata class

Plateau?
So almost half a year ago I lost 10 pounds when I first started my fitness pal. I was doing great with exercising and eating right until softball started. We didn't do much exercise at practice and I had no extra time to work out so I stopped and I still ate moderately well, but i stopped losing weight. Luckily, I kept it…

I hear all these people…
