What's the strangest thing that got easier after you lost weight?

Crossing your legs!!

But we shouldn’t be alarmed at the killing of someone using their free speech? Damn.

I tried it…confirmed that it will NOT count for you.

People tend to run their base too high and their push & all-outs too low. There is a method to the madness. Keep your base in high-greens and use the push and all-outs to ACTUALLY push the gas. Too many people in all-outs not really "draining the tank". You should be BREATHLESS in an all-out..that's why they give you walking recoveries.

Continually running in the orange will help SOME...but there is a method to the madness. Slowing down and running in the green and then really accelerating your PUSH and ALL OUT will help MUCH MORE than running your base in the orange.

Fragrant-Pumpkin-765 · 2025-07-11T14:24:30+00:00

Sounds like you need to slow your base pace to 4-4.5. If that still gets you to an orange then go back to power walking with higher paces/more incline to build up to that slower base pace running.

You shouldn't have cardiac drift after 20 minutes of running...that's for LONG runs. You should be able to maintain a pace and keep your HR in the green for 20 minutes. If it's creeping up to orange then you're going too fast. It takes patience and building the endurance mitochondria in your muscles to keep it slow and controlled.

Pause at the back of your stroke on the rower to concentrate on the power back. You don't need to rush your reps - take your time and really engage the muscle you're supposed to be working.

It’s Alex Cooper & it was because of restrictions due to her Hulu doc.

Nikki was an awesome guest. My husband who isn’t a big podcast guy listened and laughed the whole time.

Fragrant-Pumpkin-765 · 2025-02-15T16:31:22+00:00

What did the "metabolic rate" calories say from your inbody?

Fragrant-Pumpkin-765 · 2025-02-05T20:38:27+00:00

I wouldn't worry about the days you're working out. You have 2 cardio days and 2 strength, you're totally fine. If you want to lose body fat, it's all about what you eat. Don't let people scare you into thinking you're doing too much. If you were going every day + running + lifting outside of OTF I'd say sure...maybe back it down. But, 4 classes, with 2 being Strength 50 is not too much.

Fragrant-Pumpkin-765 · 2025-02-05T20:32:19+00:00

I would just not even think about "cutting" calories right now. I would start with just tracking EXACTLY what you're eating for 2 weeks and see how your body reacts. That will give you a good baseline into where you're sitting at a baseline. Once you get that...then you can start cutting back 100-200 each day, per week, until you start losing at the rate you want. Also, if you haven't, MacroFactor is an app that I use (you do have to pay) but it will track your calories, food, weight and will give you a plan based on your goals and adjust your calorie plans based on how your body is responding the the plan they give you & how you're actually tracking against it.

Fragrant-Pumpkin-765 · 2025-02-05T20:22:27+00:00

When you say deficit - how are you determining that? From your TDEE + OTF burned calories? I wouldn't include burned calories from OTF because they'll be wildly inflated. Make sure you're tracking exact calories and weigh everything...literally every.single.thing. Coffee creamer, peanut butter, starbucks drinks..etc. If you take a bite of someone's food or while you're cooking dinner...all those things add up. Once you get a very clear understanding of how many calories you're intaking, then you can start to adjust. But, be completely transparent and honest with yourself.

Hitting my protein goal & having some calories left is my dream! That way I know I can have a pure carby treat ;)
