I've been off -- way off. After having my lowest bodyfat ever (%8) at this time last year, I've been slowly putting on weight. I'm back to around 215 from 185. I have a 10+ year history of...
I've been working out for over a decade, but I'm beginning to think my bad mood correlates with overtraining at times. :) I guess I knew this already, but I suppose it's hard for me to admit.
Congratulations man! I swear endorphins from running and lifting heavy are just as good as some drugs. Just harder to achieve. :) Good to hear that you can still drink occasionally, and in...
We all know excersize gives us a feeling of satisfaction when we're done, and sometimes even an endorphin rush that lasts awhile afterward. My question is, do you ever have an intense workout, then...
Working out helped me beat alcoholism. I tend to feel the best after a long (6+ mile) run. The longer I run, the better I feel (sometimes 10+ miles). But it'll catch up to you later in the day. ...
Quick, simple question. Is there anything different about lactose, as opposed to other sugars, that would make it more diet-friendly? While I know drinking milk is better for you than many...

Already weighing food, and you're 16?! Geez man! :D Is your goal fat loss? Your breakfast sounds nutritious, but I'd try to have a little more protein than 10g. As far as your shake question...
I see what you're saying. The stationary bike has a very high percieved-exertion index. What this means is, you FEEL like you're working hard the entire time. But this is because the workload is...
I've had a history of knee problems myself, and been in your exact position. Try the eliptical, just make sure your heartrate is in the fatburning zone. The eliptical is great because it burns...
I'm a grumpy dieter myself. I'd consider this normal. Especially in the first month or so. Your body will adjust slightly, and it will become a little less painful, but you'll always be...
The best thing about being lean is not sweating as much. This was the most bearable summer of my life since I lost 40 lbs before summer. And I did it through grueling running workouts, so my...
