... Constant challenge is the key, for cardio or for resistance training. That said, it's harder to jack up you challenge with weights, because you have to...
That is so funny. I am kind of that way too and find a lot of the dance-y workouts out there not good for the challenged like myself also. I stand there...
I got The New Rules of Lifting this winter and really like it a lot. There is a lot of good information in there. The kettlebells are great. I have only...
Kathleen, Tess hit the mark, I couldn't have said it better myself. Her advice is very practical and simple. The key here is trying to zero in what your BMR...
Kathleen, You are right to increase calories on workout days and decrease calories on rest days. You want to eat for the amount of activity you will be doing...
Thanks to both of you. I've been playing with that fitday.com and it was VERY EYE OPENING. OMG! I entered my days eating and to my surprise I had consumed 47%...
Okay, great analogy actually. So even though I don't want to be a calorie counter FOREVER I think it's important for a bit to help me understand where my...
James this is wonderful, the breakdown of percentages given here. Thank you. You mention this is when you are wanting to lean up so would the body weight being...
James One more thing with regards to the menu. You mention 'good' fats so I would understand that to be avocados, nuts, olive oil but what about meats? Are we...
Hey James Talk to me about starches. If I'm understanding correctly starches are grains. This would include breads, pastas, potatoes with the exception of...
Just so you don't think I listen lol ... I have just printed out your meal plan that you provided for me a while back so that I can look through it again and...
I'm not giving up but I really don't understand what's going on or better put, what's not going on? I'm exercising. Something that I wasn't doing for literally...
Okay, I know that we are probably suppose to watch the sugar grams on foods that we consume but doesn't it make a difference of the source of the sugar that is...
Hey, sorry up front if this sounds like a dumb question. How do you know if you aren't eating enough calories vs. eating too many? I just started working out...
Kevin, Great job on cleaning up your eating, that is a major accomplishment and one of the foundations to improving not only your health but your fitness as...

Kevin, Check out the files section and read the attached .pdf file titled "Nutrition and Athletic Performance". It should help you understand a bit more about...
Yeah me too ... It seems no matter what I do I can't lose any weight or inches for that matter, whatsoever. I've been playing with foods, calorie counting,...

I think the yahoo group is fine. For me I was maybe a little confused that this group was only to ask you questions, not necessarily for dialogue between...
Denise, Thanks for the input? What are your current short/long term goals? What does your current exercise regimen look like, what is working for you and what...
Hi I guess for me, I always like to try new things. Lately I have really been getting into kettle bell workouts. I like the versatility. I am also planning on...
OK, I'm relatively new to this group, so this is my first post. I'm curious about how to exercise when I experience knee pain. It's not consistently around,...
Hi I found doing wall squats really helped with mine. Starting at whatever level was comfortable and then working until my thighs were parallel to the ...
Thank you! What you say makes sense, because moving around seems to loosen up the joints and make them less stiff. I will do as you say. Some reading I've done...
I think that is exactly what it is. I kind of found out by accident:-) But swear that is what made the difference for me and I am so glad because I was...
I have no doubt that the pain you are experiencing are from the injuries you sustained many years ago, but I also believe it may be from years of inactivity....
Sorry, but the video file was too large for yahoo to load. I will try to figure out another way to skin this cat and get you the information I promised. Best...
