    Ryka shoe sizing question

    I would go up at minimum a 1/2 size if not a whole size. One pair of Ryka's I have (which I hate) is 1/2 size larger should be. I love the Stylus but hate the Supra. My Supra has no front support and a super wide forefront. The shoe is shorter from front to back than the Stylus??? I got...

    To exercise or not...

    I vote take a break... and then when you come back focus on weight training! Take it from a girl who went into a big ol' overtraining spell with no results.... it is not worth the hours and hours if your body is telling you to rest! Give yourself a couple days off! You deserve it! It...

    Tweaking diets, workouts with NO SUCCESS?

    I just thought I would share a bit of inspiration and deep thought... I was listening to an audio success story on-line the other day and the girl's story really made me think. Her key messge was that every diet she did in the past she would "tweak" to her desire. Ya' know, if it calls...

    BFL vs. BodyRX - Can anyone tell me what the basics of each are?

    I am by no means an expert but in addition to what LoriSax says the key differences are in the workouts and in the diet. BodyRx consists of 4 6-week cycles (Strength, Sculpt, Burn Fat and lastly Maintenance/Endurance). He puts food into categories, Green, Yellow and REd and gives guidance...

    Most dreaded body part to work...

    Definitely lower body #1 and core #2! That would prove maybe why those are my 2 fattest areas. I dread lower body each and every time. I HATE lunges. However, the new Intensity Series makes it a lot more fun!
