ouch!
The last few months i've noticed major pain around my achilles area (both legs) and up the back of my leg, maybe to mid calf. It feels like it is just really REALLY tight.

HRM Help!
I have a Polar H6 HRM and the sensor is driving me mad. My husband uses it and he says it works just fine. With me, it will connect then give wonky numbers (HR 170 and I haven't even started yet.

The shakes
I have been getting a slight case of the shakes about 30 minutes after eating ONLY in the morning. I have made sure to add lean protein into breakfast, such as turkey or greek yogurt. It isn't all the time, but once or twice a week, enough to make me take notice. I have recently gotten blood tests and they tested my…

Protein shake?
I usually try to focus on real foods but there are times where i'm in a hurry and a protein shake is just handy to have. I have been using Shakeology but have finally ditched it due to the expense. Anyone have a good recommendation on a protein shake powder that would be similar and tastes decent? Thanks!
