Percentages....
So as of right now I have my carbs set to 40%, protein to 40%, and fats to 20%. However, I am not trying to burn fat or lose weight or whatever. I just want to maintain. Whats a normal ratio? Because it seems my carbs are kind of low and protein pretty high right now. Thanks!

A Break
So I've been doing P90X Doubles for the past 2 months hardcore. Never missing a day. For the past 2 days I just can't find a smidge of motivation. I think I'm just burnt out finally. I was thinking about taking a whole week off. I set my calories to maintenance of course. My question is will I lose my hard work? My…

Jack3d or Superpump 250?
I was wondering if anyone has tried either of these supplements. If so, what were the effects? Which, in your opinion, was more effective or better? Thanks!!! Meg

Is this a myth?
Soooo The next couple days I won't be able to eat breakfast until a few hours after I wake up. I wake up at 5 and won't be eating until 9. I've always heard you're supposed to eat within an hour of waking up or your metabolism slows exponentially. But I've been reading things on here saying it doesn't even matter if you…

Getting cut/more toned
So I've been building up my muscle for the past few months and I'm satisfied with what I have. Now I want to become more cut or toned...so in order to do that do I cut my calories or something? I want to lose the extra fat I've gained along with the muscle but I'm not sure how to do so. Does there need to be a slight…

From Anorexia to This!
Sooo I don't have a very long story but I'm recently recovering from anorexia. I was 65 pounds about 5 months ago and now I'm a healthy and muscular 102! I don't have a picture of myself at 65 pounds and I doubt anyone would like to see one lol but you can imagine....But I finally like and appreciate my body! Take a look…

Calories Burned....
Okay this may be a little confusing. I'll do my best to explain lol. So I did an hour of P90X which, according to my HRM, I burned 430 calories. Out of curiosity I wore my HRM at a different time of day for a full hour doing nothing and it said I burned 200 calories. So my question is wouldn't you subtract what you burn…

A Tad Confused....
So I weighed 97 pounds about a week and a half ago ( recovering from anorexia ) and just finished my second week of P90X ( no, I'm not trying to lose weight. I'm trying to gain muscle ). I weighed myself this morning and weigh 99 pounds! I know that's still a low weight for me but I just don't know if it's muscle or fat!…

Yoga X
So I just got a HRM and am on my second week of P90X. I did Yoga X this mornning and it said I burned 330 calories! Does that sound right? I know the bigger you are and the more you have to lose the more calories you burn but I'm almost 5'1" and only 97 lbs (I'm trying to gain muscle weight)....I expected to burn maybe 200…

Logging Exercise Question....
So I'm on my second week of P90X and I have a HRM which tells me how many calories I burn each day. Instead of recording every single thing I do under Exercise I just log it as running or doing the elliptical for as many calories as I burned during P90X. Does it matter how I log the calories burned? Whether it be weight…

P90X Diet Question....
Okay, so I'm in Level 1 of the Fat Shredder Phase which recommends only 1 serving of carbohydrate per day. Now, I thought 1 serving of carbs was 1/2 cup of rice or 1 slice of bread. But when I look at page 16 of the Nutrition Guide it clearly lists 2 slices of whole wheat bread or 1 whole cup of brown rice as ONE…

Hi All!
Hello everyone! My name is Megan and I am a recovering anorexic. I know most people using this site are here to lose weight but I am using it to gain about 30 pounds. I am not one of those women who rubs it in though by saying "Oh I'm so skinny! I want to gain weight!" because I know that is the last thing someone actively…
