I also have a heart rate that doesn't correspond with the charts! When I run in the range of moderate (based on perceived exertion) my heart rate is between 176-183 (treadmill readout). After looking at the links that Carole posted (thanks!), it seems that I may be training too hard to shed fat...

Thanks for posting this,Sparrow! I totally agree that we carry stuff over from our non-cyber life. For ex., when I come to this board I sometimes feel like I am crashing a party where everybody knows each other. So, because of this I don't post to certain threads (i.e. the <--- thread) because I...

I would vote against "subtle" hints. He KNOWS that he has gained weight,so pointing out the obvious probably won't help. My DH also let himself go & gained about 20# over a 3-4 yr period. He was still active with golf and coaching soccer team, but his diet was horrible! But, then 8 months...

RE: The What the Check is this all about? Just checkin

Ha! The last time I opened post about Cardio Coach I bought Vol. 3 & 4 by the end of the day. Its been worth it! I have done Vol 3 about 4x in the last week & love it! They are great inside or outside (just run faster on the hill climbs portion). I have listened to Vol. 4 about 3x while...

CHrissy, Look up Cardiocoach to get an idea of what these ipod (or mp3) workouts are like. Basically, you get a trainer's voice over music that is choreographed for cardio workouts(elliptical, treadmill, bike,etc). I just got one for the treadmill based on recs. from this board & I can't...

Thanks for the links Kathy! I am ALWAYS looking for new workout music. When you say that iTread is too fast, how fast is that? It says that it is made for three levels. Which set would you recommend? Thanks for your help, the previews are so short that I can't figure out how the workouts are...

Oh Cathe! It's so sweet how you care so much for your customers, but we understand & support you. With so many people sending you positive vibes and praying for a quick recovery, you should be flying in no time! Perhaps you should look at this as a learning opportunity and not a setback...

My Name is Yas I live in Atlanta,GA I have been on this forum since 1998 (The month that Cathe had her 1st son) under different user names but rarely post. I am 36 years old (B-day last Sat!) I have 2 children, Son 11, Daughter 8 I have a degree in Nutrition but left that field 5 yrs ago...

Thanks for the ideas! Going to Target ASAP. I really love the dri-fit fabrics b/c the cotton stays soaking wet. Its ok to workout at home, but when I go to gym its not a pretty sight!

Hi y'all, I need help finding places to buy exercise clothing at a reasonable price. I usually check out TJ Maxx & Marshalls but the selection in size M is usually limited. I HATE to pay $40 for a pair of pants or an exercise bra, but I have noticed that the quality of the lower priced...

I've been a lurker for many years on message boards from exercise to sex fantasies.I feel like I'm eavesdropping on other people's conversations. I rarely, if ever, post but love to laugh when the discussions get heated because I think it is egg-ceptionally funny how serious people can get on...

Maintenance & Time Savers...love it! Wow, rotation has 2 days off a week for 2 of the weeks. I am happy yet scared about what January Rotation will look like! Happy HO,HO,HO to all!

It was great reading these stories & viewing pics! As a professional lurker,I rarely post but I wanted to share my story. I met my DH in high school, I was 14 in the 8th grade & he was 17 in 11th grade. We were introduced by a mutual friend. Within a couple of days he asked me "Can I talk to...

I'm sure if we had a "top pear" contest I would win b/c I'm blessed with a big latina booty, which is MUCH larger than most white women who consider their butts big. Luckily, black & latino guys love it so I am ok with it (I think!?) I wish I had the tiny waist to go along with it, though (would...

I got my degree in nutrition & dietetics about 11 years ago and here is some info. to clarify. A Registered Dietitian(RD)is someone who takes a test administered by the American Dietetic Association. In order to take the test you must have a bachelor's degree in nutrition & dietetics from a...

I can get pretty lazy with the housework. So, even when I'm home all day surfing and wasting time, I'll spend the 20 minutes before my husband gets home running around cleaning the kitchen and hiding papers so that I get a "Honey, the house really looks great today" compliment.}( *I listen...

The question we all need to ask ourselves is: "If I was in a persistent vegatative state would I want to be kept alive like this?" Its one thing to debate the life or death of someone we don't know or care about and quite another to imagine yourself in that situation. How many would like...

RE: Are you having problems with low music w/ the Hard ... I have 2 DVD players and the sound difference between them is like night and day. On one the music is a soft background and on the other it is great! I feel for anyone having problems because the sound quality is actually very good on...
