Heartrate monitor and target heartrate
I just bought a New Balance fit hrm and used it for the first time last night. I calculated my MHR as 195 (220-25) and my target hr zone as 117 - 156.

Looking to lose 10-20 pounds more - need friends!
I've lost almost 15 pounds in the last 100 days (slow, but steady!) I want to lose another 10-20 (maybe more?) and could use some more motivational friends!

NROLFW - success stories?
I'm thinking of beginning the NROLFW at the beginning of January, and I was hoping to hear and see some success stories. What did you think of the program? Is it relatively easy to learn? I have never lifted free weights and feel very intimidated by it! I also have a 6 month old and work full time so I'm hoping this will…
