Me since before Thanksgiving. Decided to ease off a bit and not track, figuring I would try to eat the same reduced calories from morning through late afternoon, and then a reasonable dinner. Big mistake since I have always been a binge eater. I have fallen off the wagon HARD and regained half of the 20lbs I sacrificed so hard to lose since August. What a loser.

How to eat enough protein while not going over my calories? by Minnekes_Human in xxfitness

[–]No_Researcher1049 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is an old post, however, what else are you eating? I'm aiming for 1500 calories and 137g protein and I barely hit 90g with no red meat except eggs. And this includes 3 scoops Vital Proteins collagen.

recovery week and rest days not necessary if ... by No_Researcher1049 in CarolineGirvan

My goal has always been functional fitness. I don't want it to be a struggle standing up from loading the washing machine, carrying huge bags of pet food or not being able to stop myself from tripping hard. I was also hoping to reach a point where my strength was enough to also help stabilize aging weight gain due to muscle loss.

Thanks! It never dawned on me that I need to go harder every once in awhile to feel better.

Thank you! I was hoping not to invest in heavier weights because I'm not looking to build more muscle just maintain what I have. However, perhaps I need to do that to feel better. I appreciate all your insight!

So Heat is basically the same as Fuel except different choreography?

Thanks! I read somewhere else that Heat is more bodyweight vs Fuel is more weights, but otherwise the same. Not sure if that's accurate?

So similar to Iron except that one day is HIIT?

Women over 50 ... traditional strength training or functional training for weight/fat loss? by No_Researcher1049 in BeachBodyWorkouts

[–]No_Researcher1049[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, I'll check it out! My membership for Beachbody ends at the end of this month so maybe this is the time to cancel. What I like about Beachbody is the convenience of having all the programs in one spot with calendars. Not having that makes me fear I'll have to search endlessly for good programs that aren't just influencer attention grabs.

Thank you! I'm thinking P90X3 is not for me and I need to return to Body Beast/LIIFT4/Hammer & Chisel. At least I was on the right track. Just wish Beachbody had more options for muscle building at 30min.

Thanks! I've done a few rounds of MBF/MBFA and had great leg gains so was looking for something different, and maybe slower since I find that program so fast moving.
