    Will I lose muscle tone after two weeks of not working ...

    I injured myself last monday (while lifting) and decided to only do cardio for the rest of the 4 days (I normally lift 3 out of 5 days), and now I’m sick so I haven’t done anything at all in 5 days (I haven’t done any lifting in 10 days total.) I was going to start back up today but I’m still...

    hurt my neck and back.. should I take a break?

    Does anyone use a heart rate monitor?

    I recently bought a heart monitor with the hopes of staying in the fat burning zone. After calculating, my target heart rate should be 114-131 which seems so low to me. I'm usually in the upper 130's- 140's through my workouts. To stay in the 114-131 range is hard for me because it's too easy...
