I've been doing a workout video for four weeks now. Every two weeks it changes to another workout. But now I'm starting to wonder if I've been doing it wrong.

I've been using the highest weight I can stand, but for some of the moves I have to stop several times.

Should I be using a lighter weight, so that I can do the whole workout without stopping?

It seems to me, after four weeks, ...

Nike was on to somethin' when they coined that slogan. :-)

I realize how much discussion there is in journals, and elsewhere, about types of exercise, length of time, different machines ,etc. And I LOVE talking shop about exercise/running/gyms/whatever, but I just want to remind all you folks out there who are intimidated, scared, or overwhelmed by the options or idea of getting out there, that you don't have to do ANY of this research ...

I love WiiFit!!
This is the funnest exercise I have done since probably high school.. I love that you get so excited about winning in the game, that you don't even REALIZE that you are exercising.. it doesn't even set in until afterwards when you find sore muscles, etc..

Having so much fun with this.. if you get the chance to try it out, do!

Between WiiFit, kicking Jer's butt in WiiTennis and Boxing.. I ...

Hey - I'm a pretty regular and intense weight trainer - I was a high school wrestler and know/do all sorts of these weight training exercises.

I'm just wondering if its okay to take a protein and maybe a creatine shake and still be on medifast? I know that medifast is mildly ketogenic, so that might already rule out the creatine shake, but what about the protein powder? If I take a low-carb one and ...

I have a exercise tape I got. Its a biggest loser workout. It has a 5 minute warm up. then a 20min workout and then a 5 minute cool down. Was looking to start doing it. I have been on MF for over two months.


Should I do whole workout or half? I don't want to screw up my weight loss.

OK, everyone...in an effort to try and inspire everyone to keep posting as we all seem to want activity to increase around here, I thought I'd toss out a question that has been floating around in my brain. I would LOVE to hear your thoughts and get your feedback, however little or much you have to offer.

As I have lost weight I had lost it primarily in the arms, chest, face, neck, and legs ...

So here is my question?

I am looking to start with some weights Just to tone up a little bit. I am not going to do a lot but I would like to see my arms and legs tighten up.

Do you think I would be able to get this with Curves Or should i join the gym. Benefit of joining curves that it is right down the street. Benefit for joining the Gym is ...

Ok I'm getting ready to start exercising again.. I know to start off slowly etc. What I'm not sure is how do I judge if I need an extra shake? I don't want to go into starvation mode and I also don't want to have an extra shake if its not needed. How do I know?

I do not like to exercise. Treadmills? Yuck. Aerobics? Torture. Team sports? Heavens. That being said, when they moved employee parking from beside the building to 3 blocks away, I don't mind the walk, so I am not adverse to all forms of exercise...

My mom recognized that I needed a lot of exercise as a kid, and she insisted that I belong to a swim club. I bless her for it now, since I ...

I needed a piece of equipment to work my core and abs and this equipment was recommended for that. Slight problem. I have no idea how to use it and what exercises to do on it. I don't even know what the chick in the picture is doing. The description doesn't say whether it comes with an instruction manual. It hasn't shipped yet but I do want to know what to do on it. I ...
