NSFW How changing my diet changed my body......

[rexbobcat]

I hate to run more than I hate to lift so...

I don't mind running competitively, but running for fun...isn't very much fun. Haha

Thank you. Exercise is a huge piece of the puzzle for me. Mind, body, and spirit.

What kind of exercising do you like the most? I've tried running for fun because I have a few friends who say it's therapeutic.

They must be smoking something strong if they find running therapeutic

I know that when I train, I cater my music playlist to something that fits my strides (think in BPM). When your running is connected to music, you forget you're running and end up somewhere else- at least I do. Before you know it, it's been 4 or 5 miles, you're drenched in sweat and you're ready to destroy anything that comes your way!

I hate running. I alternate between different classes at the YMCA like Insanity, Kickboxing, and they have a cardio/toning class that I love. I also have a Treadclimber at my house that I use too, and then I will do lunges up and down my driveway.

Fun thread! There are a lot of inspirational stories out there. :hug::

I'm hooked on Shaun T's workouts and BeachBody stuff in general! I finished the 2 month Insanity program about a year and half ago. It completely changed my outlook on working out. In 2 months I went from being fit, to a machine! From there, I started coaching people through the program on the BeachBody forums. Kathy, props to you for starting Insanity! Let me know if you need any help with your journey! Now, I'm doing T25 which is just a 25 minute workout a day. Thank god cause those Insanity workouts are about an hour long.

As far as eating goes, I eat a high protein diet. (haha) :greenpbl: Lot's of veggies and fruits!! I try to keep the carbs as low as possible. =)
Rule #1 Eat a healthy breakfast!!!
Rule #2 Don't eat after 7!!!

Awesome. My girlfriend and I juice all the time. Fast food NO, Soda NO. We go to the grocery store and buy all kinds of fruits and veggies, filling up our cart. We look around to see what everybody else if buying, and their carts are filled with boxes and containers and who knows WTF is in all that...

It may be inappropriate to say this but your diet has changed my body also.

This will probably be the hardest I laugh all day.

 

[Braineack]

you said hard.

Disappointed in the mod team today. We have a chance to see a fellow forum goer in various states of undress and yet no mod had made the simple change.

Maybe if I start insulting people or bring up no-no topics...

Do you do these workouts at home or do you have a gym to go to?

What are some of your staples for juicing? I seem to always add a lime and a cucumber to everything I juice. The cucumber is a great diuretic and a lime is a great cleanser.

I do all my workouts at home! I get them done first thing in the morning.
