macro help
So i've been counting macros, and have just readjusted them as I wasnt dropping fat. What I'm confusing myself about is, should I just eat my macros as if im not exercising, or eating back some of my exercise burn? Currently eating 1900cal, C190g, F53g, P167g without factoring in my exercise cals.

Grains vs Other Carbs
Right, so, I know we need carbs. What I want to know is how dependent are our bodies on carbs from GRAINS.

I need new shoes... help!
Hi All, For the past year I have been wearing Nike free 5.0's. They are super comfy and I do love them, despite somethings getting cramps in my arches.

Cyclists I need your help! (pain etc)
For the last couple of months I have been cycling and have just started doing trail rides. I do a 20km trail every day and I love it. However, I am getting really intense pain in my tailbone.

Am I doing it wrong?
I have started riding my bike daily, 7-8km on an inclining route. I have a protein shake (made on water) afterwards, and try to eat between 1600 and 1800 calories a day. I have been doing this for a month or two now, making better choices on what I eat, smaller portions etc. and i'm not really.. seeing any changes from the…
