Ugh! I have been doing a freestyle type of working out for a couple of months and my butt keeps getting larger! I use no or very light weights too with the exception of hamstring curls. I'm wondering could doing heavy hamstring curls build your butt? BTW, I've been doing mostly LL and B&G...

I filled out an application at a local gym for a front desk position. I'd really like to work there! I've always had retail or office jobs in the past, so I wanted to know what it's *like* to work at a gym (if I get the position). The person who does the interviewing will be in on Monday. Wish...

I was wondering how important it is (or to you) how many calories burned? I keep reading how so many use HR monitors. I keep a pretty good mental track on how many calories I consume. I'm contemplating whether I should get a HR monitor or not.

I'm so mad at myself! I was finally beginning to see results from my workouts and decent eating. Today was very stressful at work and I eat an extra Kashi bar. Ok, not so bad. But after getting home...I started eating potato chips while getting dinner. Needless to say, I just don’t get it. I...

I remember seeing a commercial for a hand held game that would ask you random questions. I think they said 15 minutes of this game helps your memory (I guess I'M the one who NEEDS it;-)). But I thought that would be a fun game to get my parents. For the life of me I cant remember what it was...

I need to buy more foundation, but wondered is the expensive brands sold in dept. stores really worth it? I usually use Mabeline or L’Oreal, but was looking at Bobbie Browns website today and wondered if its necessary to spend $40 for a foundation. What do you think?

Every once in a while I have to diet where I have to really watch what I eat, but I find something I do is, right before my "start" date, I stuff myself silly, with the old "I'm starting my diet tomorrow". I probably do more damage in that one day if I didnt "diet" all week. DOes anyone else do...

I just registered at videofitness.com because I wanted to ask a poster about an itrain workout. What I'm wondering,do you need to pay to become a member to post? It's funny, I've read that forum for years and never posted.

I have to carry so many keys and wondered what type of keychain or key ring you have. I have a swiss army knife with little sissors, nail file and knife. I also have a little rubber doggie. :7

I was given a gift card for my b-day for a local sports store and have been contemplating what to get. I see alot of threads about heart rate monitors. I wanted to know WHY do YOU wear one. Is it really that important to know how many calories you burned each workout, even if you feel like you...

I was wondering if good 'ol PB&J can be considered "clean". It's just so easy to make and take along in the car or on a picnic. The brands I use are: Smuckers Natural Peanut Butter, Polamers All-Fruit and Ezekiel bread. What do you think? I've been REALLY trying to clean up my diet...

I've been trying to incorporate more running for my cardio when the weather was getting nicer, but now it's too hot (for me). I know there are a lot of runners here, so I'm wondering, in your opinion, what makes running different than doing a Cathe cadio workout (or using an elliptical)?

I'm looking to add another kickbox workout to my collection. I've read good reviews about the Powerstrike videos. From what I can tell they only have three produced. Is that correct? I also wanted to know the differences between 1 and 2. I like to do more kicking and jumping than punches.

This was in IVillage.com today. You already know that exercise makes you look and feel sexier. But did you know that exercise, quite literally, makes you sexy? After a good workout, men and women alike experience a spike of testosterone (the famed "pump" of bodybuilding), the hormone that...

I am in need of some help figuring out nutritional calculations. I know my daily calories and fat grams. How do I figure out what percent those fat grams are in ratio to the calories? My calories are 1,400 and fat grams are 29. Right now, I’m not too concerned about protein and carbs...

I need to get another bathing suit. I usually purchase through Venus swimwear. Does anyone have another suggestion? I'm not too crazy about wearing a two piece, I feel too naked.
