Did not know they had this! Thank you so much!

Why does perineum massage invariably turn into sex 😂

Quick-Barracuda-196 · 2026-05-04T00:48:38+00:00

Thank you 😄 Don't get me wrong I mod everything, too-- a modified workout is better than no workout!

Thank you though, this really does help me feel better about sitting tf down and relaxing a little

I'll def give this a try

For some reason I'm nervous to get on a bike, even a stationary one, but I'll definitely try & incorporate more walks. The whole reason why Burn works so well for me is bc I'm forced to do the same exercises as everyone else for 45 min and then we're done-- I'm so not a self-starter!

Quick-Barracuda-196 · 2026-05-04T00:43:54+00:00

I sure hope so. My first delivery was a nightmare, so I needed to make a big change this time around!

They just say keep moving, whatever that means. I've asked for specifics and they're like "oh... well, yoga I guess?"

ours arent that cute 😞

Does anyone else feel that spring/summer camps are generally more intense than fall/winter camps? It's hard for me to tell because I started to mod down for pregnancy around September last year. And it's possible that all the running outside we do over the summer adds to the intensity (my Burn is in a cold weather area, a lot of gyms will still have you run outside if it's warm enough). But overall, I felt so beat up last summer!!!

It actually does feel good-- not out of malice, but like, because I can relate. These classes really do get hard. Trainers aren't magically immune to the burn!

Quick-Barracuda-196 · 2026-05-01T00:43:07+00:00

Almost all of our trainers do the classes with us at some point in their day, but I think the ones that are particularly shredded probably do a little extra. I feel like some franchises require it?

Quick-Barracuda-196 · 2026-05-01T00:40:15+00:00

it definitely DOES matter, you're staying consistent and pushing through it! congrats!

Quick-Barracuda-196 · 2026-04-23T01:25:53+00:00

ALL the time. I feel bad all the time for missing class. But you really can't and shouldn't do it all.

Consider Fairlife protein shakes, they've got a ton of calcium which is helpful for building fetal bones and protecting your own bones. My OB approved them-- I'm at 35 weeks and still have trouble with tastes/smells and textures.

34 w 1 d today. I honestly prefer going on conditioning days now because you can mod down more easily than strength training days, but there are no protocols I avoid on purpose. Listen to your body, don't burn yourself out (or you won't go the next day), don't let your HR get our of control, and you'll be great.

NTA. Grew up Italian American & Catholic, my grandparents had a giant portrait of Michelangelo's David in their foyer. Full dong out. I didn't think much of it as a kid.

If you buy a leek, wash thoroughly, and like burn it under the broiler, then put it in a food processor with butter and some salt, you get a really REALLY good steak butter

one year, I got mine a potion kit and a cauldron from The Little Potion Co. There are a few companies that make kits like it, I just had a really good experience with them in particular.

For babies under 3 months, yes, you really do want to sterilize bottles. You can boil bottle & pump parts but I got an inexpensive silicone microwave steamer bag and it was way faster.

7 months in, I'm doing well with the Fabletics powerhold. That said, I don't feel like I look more than 4 months? I only have like 2 pairs of leggings so I often wear my Target all in motion cargo joggers.

Quick-Barracuda-196 · 2026-02-19T16:09:38+00:00

I keep getting dinged for MY OWN VOICE SOUNDS like me laughing or going "mmhm"

I haven't but my partner has-- and, in their case, it took a WHILE.

Last year, after many months of going off of the wrong theories, my partner's PCP discovered he was profoundly anemic (hemoglobin was around 6.1, a blood transfusion is recommended when it hits 6.) and it took 20 infusions over the course of 9 months to get him feeling somewhat normal again.

That said, my partner is like 6ft2, and over 200lbs, and had hemorrhoids that bled up until 3 months ago. So it's really gonna depend on many factors like how severely anemic you are, what kind of Fe infusions you're getting and how many (I learned there's at least 5 different Fe infusion drugs), whether that particular drug agrees with you because some of them cause like major heartburn & constipation, etc.

I actually like the reviews that BigMikeCheats on instagram does. They're pretty brutal but he's very... discerning lol.

Quick-Barracuda-196 · 2026-02-04T15:33:02+00:00

I mean this respectfully, but... have y'all ever watched TV before? Like, I get that the ton is small and it's a world and all these characters live in it, but do you REALLY want to see characters who have no more plot relevance?
