    *** What's the best, light PRE-workout snack for high-intensity cardio...?

    Wow, Kathryn ... that sounds friggin' phenomenal! Expensive, but I'll have to try it one of these days. Thanks! Alana_as, I would imagine the banana and berries make it just as sweet as it needs to be, depending on how sweet they are. (Never even heard of gojis.) The chia seeds definitely...

    *** What's the best, light PRE-workout snack for high-intensity cardio...?

    Yes, that's true. I completely agree. If I don't have something fairly substantial, my energy is just not there. I do something like a baked potato (great!) or a peanut butter and "all fruit" sandwich on whole wheat. Was just wondering what other people did. I used to do a handful of cashews...

    ** 29yo F needs HELP w/30-DAY WORKOUT PLAN to prep for Firefighter Agility Test!

    Oops, I forgot this. Yes, I wholeheartedly agree, as far as the actual training is concerned. But that won't come until after I pass the test! The Fire Department will train all new recruits as we need to be trained. (Just how that works and what we'll do is in the handbook I got, too.) What...

    ** 29yo F needs HELP w/30-DAY WORKOUT PLAN to prep for Firefighter Agility Test!

    Shucks. Well it's not necessarily cold turkey -- I'd been working out some, just not as regularly as I had when I first started several years back. And it'd been a few months since I'd been working out, before this. So like I said, I was in pretty good shape, and was able to do everything we...

    Oh, I see! I thought there was some other cool tip I didn't know about yet. But yes, I know exactly what you mean -- me too! Thank you. :~) ~ Blue

    *** What's the best, light PRE-workout snack for high-intensity cardio...?

    Hey! Thank you. :~) Why is the fiber important...? I have fat burners I was taking that don't have all that unnatural crap in there, and they have a very nice all-day energy component with just one pill. (And not that unnatural jittery feeling -- just "refreshed" energy.) But I was going to...

    *** What's the best, light PRE-workout snack for high-intensity cardio...?

    Hi again. I need some ideas, please. I'm kind of disappointed -- I was doing Step Works, but had to stop after 21 minutes or so b/c I'd petered out. My knee was acting up too, but I think if I felt more energetic I would've been able to push through (w/modifications). I'm upset b/c I wasn't...

    ** 29yo F needs HELP w/30-DAY WORKOUT PLAN to prep for Firefighter Agility Test!

    Hello all! A brief history: Revising my diet and doing almost all Cathe workouts (once I worked up to that level), pilates, and yoga helped me lose 45lbs several years ago, and get in the best shape of my life about 6 years ago. A couple of different serious life events derailed me, and I'd...

    Yes, I was totally confused as to where to post. I was like, "well this is surely a challenge!" LOL. Thank you. :~)
