Topic: ARGH Day 3?
Woke up and my shins were killing me. I am just not use to running outside at ALL! 2 days and I'm hurting?!! WTH? Decided to R&R this am but will bike this afternoon. I think it is going to rain so if it does then I'll setup the mag trainer inside and just bike on that. Might lift a little too if I am stuck indoors.

Good workout. I went to physical therapy and got a massage to start my workout. It is such a hard way to start your day! Can you just hear my sarcasm??? Did alot of shoulder exercises with 4 and 5 lb weights. It seems so trivial when you go from 20-40lb weights and then have to use puny weights. Oh well. At least it is feeling better. Tammy

Training with a specific goal seems to be a real motivator. Good Luck

Topic: RE: Day 1
I need to get an RMR once I get further out. I think it would be a waste of money right now but maybe do it in another few months. Dana is the same way although he really can't work out as hard and needs to start to adjust his calories. He is actually trying to drop weight right now. When he was tri training he could eat 5k. Day 2 Today's workout: Running Outside.. glad I had my under armor cold gear on. Although once I got going I warmed up fast. I think I did 45 min - hour. I really didn't keep track today. Didn't even monitor my heart rate. Just went for it. Gorgeous morning. Starting in 2 weeks I want to do 3 mile runs regularly then work up to a couple 5 mile runs. Today was more brisk walking mixed with some running. Had another exercise induced asthma attack when I got home and used the albuterol again. Must be the weather outside. Tomorrow I will be taking a break from running and biking. My shins are already a little sore just after 2 days in a row. I'm just not use to running outside on the pavement. I was always a treadmill runner. Need to toughen them up! No ankle or joint pain though which is just so wonderful! I know its because of the weight loss. I bet sometime in the next 2 weeks I will be under 200 finally.

Topic: Hey Earl????!!!!!
I was just wondering if you had any ideas on how to start training for some serious strength for the bench press. Any suggestions would be great. For the first 2 weeks it will be baby weights. 90lbs today. 15 reps each set. 4 sets. Thanks Tammy

Topic: Training for a reason
Hi everyone. I am jelous(sp?) everyone is getting skinnier! I am so happy for everyone. I just wanted to say I finally was okay'd to go back to the gym and start working out at low weights. I had a pinched nerve in my shoulder(sucker hurt!) No lifting over my head for awhile. I was invited to a lifting competiton (raw bench press) in January and my Physiotherapist said he will work with me. I am so psyched! I had a good time getting back to a little lifting. There is a possibility that I could be on the team at my gym. My husband was a little upset because he thought I would be traveling all over the country. It is here in PA. If anyone is interested you can email me. Or just post and I will get to you. South Central area. Tammy

Topic: RE: Day 1
I went to Baseline Fitness here in town. I did a RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate) test. On my heavy exercise days I can eat 3,000 calories....and maintain my weight. It sure is nice being a guy. We can get away with eating so much more than woman. I bet Dana can eat a lot without gaining weight.
