Program to do after NROLFW
I am half way through phase 6 of New Rules of Lifting for Women so its time to start thinking about what to do next. My main goal is weight loss but I also would like to maintain muscle and strength. I am not looking to put on muscle right now (getting married in 6 mo and want to lose about 30-40 lbs by then). I enjoy…

Cross Trainers
Hi. I'm in the market for some good cross trainers. My boyfriend is doing T25 and I decided to do a couple of the videos with him this week (I am just finishing up the second month of ChaLEAN Extreme so I was just adding some extra burns). I tried to do them in my running shoes which turned out to be a TERRIBLE idea…

Best shoes for insanity?
So... I started Insanity today. Just finished with ChaLEAN extreme. I'm looking for a good shoe for all this jumping around. I have done similar plyo videos (ChaLEAN has a couple, P90X, etc) and have always had foot problems. I normally did them in my running shoes. I decided to get some cross trainers but those hurt my…

Considering bumping up my cals
So... I have been back for about 6 weeks and have lost 7-ish lbs. I'm comfortable with the rate of my weight loss (though I wouldn't mind losing 1.5 to 2 lbs a week, but I know that's not feasible all the time). What I'm concerned about is that I might not be eating enough calories. MFP set me at 1200, but I bumped it up…

Half Marathon Training Plan
Hey kids. So... little bit of background. I was up to running 3 miles, 3x per week for a while there. Then I started slacking. I am currently getting back into it and to help motivate me, I signed up for my first ever half marathon. It's not till May 2013 so I plan on being back in at least 5K shape before starting to…

Mac or PC
I am thinking about getting a new laptop cause mine broke a while back. I was just curious if anyone had suggestions on which one I should get. :) I plan on just using it for every day stuff. Nothing fancy. I don't play video games and I probably wont store many documents on it but I want it to be fast. Thanks for your…

Feeling Sleepy...
So. I flew home last night and got in bed at 12:30 pm. I only got about 5 hours of sleep and I am REALLY dragging today. Trying to decide if I should work out tonight or just go to bed early and catch up on some sleep. Any suggestions?
