rockin body
I just started rockin body this week, just finished day 5 and I was wondering who else has done it? What do you supplement in for weights and how did you like it? I really like the dance aspect as I am a dance teacher so its fun and makes me sweat a ton but Im not sure if I should supplement anything else in in order to…

calorie intake
I am going back and forth on how many calories I should be consuming. When I enter my exercise on MFP (insanity workouts + walk/run/cardio of some sort later in the day), it shows 500ish calories burned (I don't have a HRM so it's probably not as accurate as it could be). With the normal calories MFP says I should take in…

Hello all! I'm from northwest ohio, between Lima and Findlay if you know where those are (I live in a very small town :) I was wondering where you find the best 5k races? I have only ever done one and it was before I moved back to Ohio and I'm looking to try to do another one to beat my first time. I dont want to go to far…

exercise and BMR
I have been throwing around ideas of how to set up MFP and I am so confused. I have it set up now that it is my elite nutrition guide number (I am doing insanity and it calculates your BMR, activity level, and what you should eat to lose weight on the program). My BMR is 1411 and with my activity level and cut for weight…

insanity nutrition settings
Hi fellow insanity friends! I was just curious, I have been messing with my settings a lot lately and can't decide what to set my goal calories to be. I have it set for my BMR (1405) right now and then add in my exercise (insanity and sometimes another exercise also, depending on the day), which gives me 1700-2000 calories…

abs/hips
Today was my first day doing cardio abs and it was great. I like all the ab work but I had one major problems, my hips. I dont know if its just me (I am a dancer and my hips crack all the time) or if I am doing the exercises wrong. It mainly hurt on the in/out exercises and I had to take a lot of breaks because of it which…

Sorry.. Im new to this group so I hope someone can help me, I tried going back through some older posts but couldnt find all the answers I wanted so I thought it best to just start my own discussion. I'm 27, 5'2" and 136lbs. I calculated my BMR-1408, my TDEE- 2430, and my goal (with the cut %)- 1944. My questions are: 1.…

whey protein shake ideas
I recently purchased some whey protein to try to add in more protein. Today I tried it with frozen berries and greek yogurt, it tasted okay but I know there have to be better recipes out there. My protein powder is Jillian Michaels vanilla whey protein.

Not enough protein and calories/ too many carbs
Since starting insanity last week, I have really been working on trying to up my protein. I switched my settings to the 40 protein/40 carb/20 fat and 1900 calories that insanity says I should have. Ever since starting, I have been over on carbs and under on protein daily. I have been getting better about how many carbs I…

to HRM or not? Which type?
I have been doing a lot of research on heart rate monitors. Right now, I am doing insanity and adding in other workouts 3-5 days a week extra. I want to make sure I am eating the right amount and I think it would be motivational to see how many calories I burn. I don't want to spend too much on a HRM (70-80 is the absolute…

best HRM
I have been looking at reviews over and over and trying to find the best HRM to log my calories burned during insanity and my other workouts. I would really like to know if I am getting close to the right calorie intake for the workouts I am doing. I have heard a lot about polar ft 7 and making sure its something that…
