Tons of community colleges (and regular colleges) offer online nutrition classes. Probably best to look at some in your area for in-state tuition, but most will let you take just one class. Some have personal training classes too, though lots of people learn that on their own with books. I...

I live at 7500 feet and am very fair. I wear SPF 100 every day and reapply often as well. I do this because while its true that the higher numbers don't give additional incremental protection, it gives you more wiggle room. It's almost impossible to wear the amount of sunscreen that is...

Do you mean the duration of a single workout is hard or just keeping a rotation going? I'm 30, in pretty good shape and I burn out by the 3rd week of rotations as well. Especially things with little variation like Insanity or Chalean Extreme). I also only work out 5x a week and find that any...

I just reconnected with my phone book this week. I live in Mexico City where it's not that easy to find services online. I needed a mover to catapult an 8ft dining table over our interior balcony and was going to just ask around for movers...then I remembered we got a local phone book when we...

Good work! I never made it past 4 weeks. The level of impact was too much for me, but I have been using it twice a week with P90x and I love it! The part that really amazed me is that he's always saying it will improve speed and I kind of rolled my eyes. But he was right, my movements are so...

My husband picks his nails off to the point where they sometimes bleed. Two things have helped him: first, getting weekly manicures has made the most difference. It makes him more aware of what he's doing and also keeps the edges smooth so there's less temptation to pull at the little rough...

You look amazing!!! I love the piecey short cuts but you really have to have the face to pull it off (I would look like a hobbit). It's awesome that you went for it. It's totally gorgeous on you!

I was just researching this for my master's degree in Exercise Physiology. I think you're on the right track by keeping it light and focusing on form. Heavy lifting in children can strain their connective tissue and potentially encourage early closure of the epiphyseal plates which would limit...

Jane - I have totally done that before (although not habitually). I hope it doesn't take a month to go away, but maybe that means I don't need to worry that it's been around for over week. Wendy - That's exactly what it feels like, but it never wakes up. It's really distracting. Liann -...

The pinky and ring finger of my left hand have been sort of numb for about a week. I googled it (of course) and found that this can be caused by putting weight on your elbow. I often rest my head on that hand, with elbow on my desk, so that sounds like a reasonable explanation. However, the...

Mine are huge-ish and I have never found a single sports bra that does the trick - not at any price. What I've found to be the best solution is layering up. I wear a thin sports bra with cups (like Hanes) then another sports bra on top that has a thick elastic band at the bottom (I like the C9...

That's so funny. I always chew gum too! I feel like it's an outlet for some of the discomfort, especially when really pushing myself on weight work. It's really the only time I do chew gum. I keep a pack in my home gym, pop it in when I start the workout and spit it out when I'm done.

I agree that you should do a gift cert or take your husband shopping. Since different shoes are cut differently, you want to make sure its a comfortable fit for his individual foot shape, esp for athletic shoes. Very thoughtful of you :)

Congratulations! That's an awesome accomplishment! Did you reduce your upper body work at all while doing the pushup challenge? I tried it once and stopped when I repeated week 3 three times and it just kept getting harder and harder. I thought maybe it was overtraining from doing that and...

Awesome! I'm in the US for xmas, so not having to wait another couple of months to pick it up is a great gift! I hope that sucker shows up tomorrow so I can get into it.

Congratulations!!! I'm in grad school full time and working full time. It leave little time for anything else! You did an awesome job this semester, keep it up!!!

Favorites: Pushups - the more I do them, the more I like them Pullups - the more I do them, the more I like them Deadlifts - I just think they are really satisfying Not favorites: Dips - somebody tell us what we're doing wrong because my wrists kill as well. Calf raises - because...

I go to the Xmas music channel on AOL Radio at least a couple of times a week. I LOVE xmas music, makes me happy anytime. And Christmas Shoes should absolutely be outlawed. We should write to the singer and ask for a written apology for being subjected to it. It is just plain wrong.

Are you doing more cardio than usual? Dehydration will give you terrible headaches and sometimes people don't increase fluid enough with increased activity.

I actually had no idea who sang that song, so I guess that's the thing I learned today (and I am refusing to learn anything else for the rest of the day). I did Gym Style Legs and the first day of the 100 pushup challenge. Now, I'm not totally positive because by this point I was blinded...
