    Those of you who have a heart rate monitor

    I am thinking about investing in one, and lately I have seen these things called a Heart Rate Watch, they are about $50, and do NOT use the chest strap to continually monitor you. Rather, there is a little button on the watch that you have to press with your finger, and with 3 beats it tells you...

    Babysitting Rates?

    My 13 yo neighbor just cheerfully informed me that she charges $9 an hour for babysitting! As soon as I got over my heart attack, I just had to ask....is this reasonable? I have 3 kids, granted...but they will be in bed an hour after she arrives! AND SHE IS 13! AND IT IS TAX FREE! AND SHE...

    Push Up Bars

    Anybody have these? Are they helpful at all? I saw a pair at a local sporting goods place and they were not expensive and I was tempted to buy but I think it may have been the shopping bug. Do they help your wrists? Sometimes with all the pushups in Hardcore I am thinking they might be...

    The importance of rest/sleep when one is working out a lot....

    Lately I have been curious...how much sleep and/or rest do those of you who workout a lot...6 or 7 days a week...get? I am wondering about this because all this winter, it seemed like all I could get were 3 workout days in a row, before I'd get yet another cold, flu, stomach flu, or just...

    How to find Whole Grain Bread

    Is it just me or is it impossible to find whole grain bread or rolls? How do you tell? Even the stuff I have been buying in the grocery store that says "100% whole wheat" in the title, has "enriched flour" in the first ingredient in the list. Which means it is not whole grain, or even...

    Oatmeal in the Crockpot

    Tried this. Overnight. It was nnaaaasty! I put extra water in there to make sure it didn't burn. Gooey "poi" like consistency (aka wallpaper paste) and still burned around the edges. I chugged it down anyway (I can eat anything as long as I put sugar free maple syrup on it). Did I do...

    Low bodyfat with diet alone?

    I don't think I am going to attempt this....I am not sure it would be effective, but wondering what you guys think. Do you think it is possible to get a low bodyfat (I suppose it depends on how low) through eating habits alone? If all that matters is calories in being less than calories out...
