I don't know how much you guys know about lifting weights. But I figured I'd share some of the things that I've picked up/learned from people I work out with, the internet, stuff like that. Feel free to add your own to this thread. We have to get this forum started! First, here's my top 10...
Since I see these everywhere (in press, on TV, etc), I thought I'd share some common fitness myths. If you have any, feel free to add them! Myth: Crunches will flatten your belly Fact: Fat and muscle are two completely different things. Likewise, they are metabolized by your body differently....
Let me map this out for ya', and let me just say that i know next-to-nothing about the whole weight-lifting 'scene', so please be patient..! Okay. So i'm a skinny 18 year old who wants to build up his upper body, especially arms. I've been told that there are plans that can see improvements in...

So, I have recently incorporated cardio back into my workout routine. The reason being is that I am 10% BF and I want to work my way down to 8% BF. I started running in the morning before work due to my schedule and just don't have the time to do it in the evening. I am no morning person by...
Have you done one before? How much did you get paid? I'm looking for some extra cash and have been reading up on becoming a guinea pig for science. Thoughts?
I wouldn't fast forward all the commercials if I thought I would see something like this.
I really wanna hit the 4's this year, but I don't really know how to train for it because I run cross country so I'm used to training for a 5k. Anyone have some suggestions on how I should approach this? My fastest mile was a 5:27 I think, and I'm pretty sure I've had the ability to run around a...
Well, as I posted in my introduction thread.....I tore my ACL & Meniscus in October 2008, and had surgery November 2008. Has anyone else on this forum had the same/similar knee surgery? I had to miss all of last season due to physical therapy/rehab and healing....so I've been off my board for some...
Is anyone out there a calorie counter out there like me that has an accurate idea of how many calories are burned in an hour of riding? I've seen numbers around 400-500 calories per hour, but my confusion is in does that include lift-lines/rides etc? On that note, in any given hour, how much...
I have been working out and trying to get in shape lately and I have been getting hungrier then I have ever in my life. So instead of having my stomach eat itself I did a little bit of digging on the internet. Anyway, one of the ones I came across was pickles, they are surprisingly good for a...

Does anyone use this? I used to, but lost my piece to plug into my ipod. Im contemplating on buying another one, as its something to help me do cardio and try to do a little better each time. Thinkin bout buying the new wristband they came out with. Anyways, thought maybe if there were at...
Anyone have any suggestions on some headphones to work out with? The ones that came with my Nano and Touch suck, hurt my ears after awhile and constantly fall out if Im doing cardio. Would like to have something for when I do cardio to pass the time quicker. Bout to go buy the ones that cover...
I am allergic to nothing, have great eye sight, and imo have an amazing palate. What I don't have anymore though is a great sense of hearing. Two decades of blasting music through headphones and car stereos has done me in a little I think. Put me in a situation where there is a lot of noise, ex....

Does anyone here mountain bike? I'm thinking of getting into it, and I DEFINITELY need a new bike, since mine just got stolen. I live in a town where biking is a way of life. I'd probably be better off getting a cruiser bike, but well...I like mountain bikes better. However, upon looking around at...
