Opinions?... "Resistance Training is better than cardio for fat loss… To start with, a person’s weight tells us very little about their body composition. It gives us no idea of their body fat percentage or their lean body mass (muscle, bone etc). It is a well-known fact that muscle tissue is...

I like having a protein shake with a sandwich post-workout. I only use one peice of whole wheat bread (Health Nut) with turkey and lettuce. I know you want simple carbs post-workout, but would it really make a difference if I opted for the peice of whole wheat bread (with only 2 grams of...

Ooh... I'll take all of your advice on everything besides maybe the working out first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. Can anyone else share there opinions on this? I'm sure this has been covered many times before, and I've heard a lot of info supporting both sides... but I've found I...

I haven't been weight training mostly due to how fatigued I've been from the consistent HIIT (as well as my main goal being fat loss). I do it on an elliptical, which I've found allows me to hit my muscles harder than any other cardio form. I focus on engaging my arms, legs, butt, back, and...

Thank you so much for the wonderful welcome and response! I am a bit panicked... I'm going on a vacation in about a month- swimsuit necessary! I definitely try to only jump on the scale once a week, at most... because as you said, the scale did start screwing with my head (not going down, but...

I'm looking to lose weight as fast as possible and I have no problem restricting calories rather drastically... but I know I need to be careful with this. I'm scared I've been eating too few calories (but I want to be able to eat as few as possible and calculations I've found for BMR, etc. seem...
