Curious as to opinion

My DH has high blood pressure and needs to lose 40 - 50 lbs. He is/was very athletic and finally has a desire to get in shape again. He also travels a lot and in the hotel chain that his company puts him at there is usually not a workout room with much more than a couple of treadmils, etc...

I have worked out on an empty stomach since a little after I began in 2002. I have been fine. When I eat first even though I wait a while to exercise I always get sick to my stomach. I don't eat immediately after either. I wait about 30 minutes to an hour. I have never looked up what is...

Thank you so much for replying! Rach - are you going to do the amount of cardio the rotation suggests? I agree about the calories being high, are any of you going to try this rotation? I am trying to decide what I am going to do to lean out as much as possible and I am not sure - too...

The MF Hers for March has an article on Leaning Out - It shows a 3 day split routine with only 3 cardio sessions. 2 half hour ones that could be intervals and one hour long one of steady state cardio. You lift 3 days off 1, on the 1st day off you do your long cardio. I am curious to see...

Yes - mine is up - my DD has not been home for Christmas in 3 years, the first of the three she was in Navy Bootcamp - she went straight to Iraq. The second one she was in Iraq, this third one she is in Bremerton WA and could not get her leave approved but she will be home in a week for two...

Nancy - Thank you, you are so sweet and can surely put things in perspective. I guess I will be happy with my body someday although I am extremely happy about having the "new" "Old" me back - I just wasn't myself while I was big - thank you so much for your uplifting talk about comparing - you...

Well, I find it a bit depressing - I am 5'2", medium frame, athletic build weigh 120 and wear a size 4/5/6 - I have been very excited about that - I have lost over 80b lbs and was fat for about 10 years -I was feeling kind of small but you guys make me seem really big for my height!

Thank you for posting your results! I like the plan of the August workout also although I plan on doing it in September.

Hi Lynn, I use splenda and protein powder. Before I make it I put about half a scoop of vanilla protein powder in it and then cook it, add a tsp splenda and sometimes fruit, my favorites are blueberries, peaches, strawberries or you can put cinnamon and nuts in it. If you want to nix the...

Have any of you that are doing the July rotation noticed that you are sleepier and hungrier? This may sound silly but I am only done with day 3 (Started on Tuesday) and I am so hungry and tired!!! I could barely finish Cycle 9 on IMAX 2 this morning! But -- I do like intensity so it feels...

How about a kickbox series ( kind of joking but would love to have it to pick from) - kickbox step, kickbox circuit, kickbox Imax, regular kickbox cardio and then one killer high rep total body workout, muscle building maybe focusing on giant sets and another killer leg workout. just dreaming

I need some cardio ideas. I have outgrown my Firm cardios, Super Cardio is too easy. I cannot do step every day and the only floor cardios I have are KPC, CK and the Bootcamp part without the abwork. I need more than 25 to 30 minutes of cardio. I have IMAX2 and love it, can't always get it...
