Lifters: working out with muscle soreness?
I’m wondering whether it’s advisable to complete a lifting workout when you’re still experiencing muscle soreness. I sometimes find that one day of rest doesn’t give my body enough time to recover, and I suspect it’s best to wait it out, but I hate missing workouts (because I love lifting). What do you guys do? Thoughts?…

Eating Too Late After Work
I usually eat breakfast around 8:00, lunch around 12:00 and dinner when I get off of work. I work 3:00-9:00. I get one 10 minute break. I work in a PCI compliant area meaning food can only be consumed in break rooms. I don't like eating so late when I get home and I schedule breakfast and lunch around the time my son needs…

Should you eat back your calorie burned?

I'm trying to lose weight, and it's happening but I'm always always hungry. Today I burned 579 and my iifym says I can eat 1738…

Eight Pounds in 6 Days? Any insight?
Okay. First some background. I've been losing weight pretty steadily since the beginning of February thanks to beginning to work out again and watching what I eat. Also, I'm on Wellbutrin, which curbs my appetite. I have an eating schedule because I work out quite a bit, and I usually try not to go over 1400 calories…

Experiment: Jawbone UP24 vs. Misfit Shine
So I've had a Misfit Shine for a couple of months now, and recently started doubting the calorie adjustments and step estimations - they just seemed really high. Yesterday I received an UP24 as a gift, so I figured I'd do a bit of an experiment this week. I'm wearing both trackers (on the same arm; I look very cool) and my…
