@indekee It's normal, sprint are, by definition, not very long. However, you don't need to feel like your head is going to explode in your chest to get results. Just interval between elevated and lowered heartrate will work. Basically, as long as there is an alternence between resistence phase...

@indekee Sorry, I disagreed with this part here : "I think those short sprints, while being fun aren't long enough to build up my breath which is where my problem is." Since, from my experience, interval and sprints builds cardiovascular capability faster than long running session does. To...

@indekee It's uncomfortable because your joints and muscles aren't used being solicited that way. To go faster, you have to run a higher mileage, not run faster. Although I highly disagree, sprint and Intervals are an INCREDIBLE way to build anaerobic and cardiovascular capacity.

@acer621 \o/ u mods are fantastic.

@dawn16 Maybe they can't help it? Not everything can be rationally and methodically thought and pushed aside. Things affect people even when these people know it shouldn't. And sometimes, maybe, OP could have been the person in the wrong and their way of verifying is asking in this sub to make...

@moonserenity Yikes yeah. I just pictured trying to do that in my reps. Of 70% and above and I felt my lower back cringe nine ways to Friday. My back is not willing, I am not willing even the barbell isn't willing

@slcain Science consensus based on hormones and female bodies. Women needs higher body fat percentage than men to maintain good health and avoid issues such as permanent hunger, fertility, fatigue, etc, and I think the range is anywhere between 20-32%, although 25% is typically judged as being...

@rovanpenny A squat with the barbell on your shoulder instead of on your back

@rovanpenny Back squat, to differentiate with front squats.

@kmar123 There's no overdoing it as long as you are mindful of your resting periods and recovery. Honestly, I'd rather be addicted to the gym and go get a workout in if I have time than fucking do nothing but watch tv on a couch Like why is going to the gym considered to be an addiction? Why...

@wingless121 Tbf most of. The weight should rest on your upper back. Rather than your wrists, so breaking shouldn't be an issue either way

@rue77 Here's today for me: (2100 calories) Breakfast: One tall soy latte at starbuck with one shot of caramel (smoked butterscotch is to die for). 3 medium boiled eggs, 20g. of dates (no pits), 1tsp of coconut oil, Buckwheat flakes 57g. (roughly 2/3 of a cup iirc). Chia seed, 1tbsp, Pineapple...

@artemis153 Fear is useless if you can't do anything about it. That's what I learned when at the highest of my anxiety. What's the use of worrying about something that may or may not happen? You just fall in a loop and don't accomplish anything in the meantime. What's the worst that can...

@porcelainrose I am a grad student who's trying to keep an active lifestyle, so I definitely feel you on a lot of aspects. The thing that never failed me to sort of manage stress is that I daydream. Music is an extremely vital component of my life and I listen to a lot of...
