With all due respect,<br /><br />when was the last time you were a rat? My vote goes for snake oil.<br /><br />tony

Okay, gang,<br /><br />which among the plethora of variables is the "best" to monitor and use as the dependent variable of choice when it comes to assessing the efficacy of a training program with respect to the event in question? Which variable(s) is(are) best for 2k; for half marathon; for maratho...

Yep,<br /><br />that's just what I found out; couldn't get rowpro and ergmonitor to run concurrently; fortunately, I can still use my PM3 to give me a read out of HR data and I can use my Polar software to keep track of the HR data as a function of time; event markers, whatever. There's more data on...

John<br /><br />damn, why didn't i think of that!! thanks much. <br /><br />BTW, congrats on your 2:35 marathon, partner, that's a helluva good show under any circumstances. Best I could ever do was 3:05 at Presque Isle in Erie, PA probably back in '80 or so, though I did do 7:40 something for 50 mi...

Frank,<br /><br />i'd really appreciate the pictures, Frank. and thanks again so much for your help.<br /><br />tony

Tom and Frank,<br /><br />thanks for your feedback, guys. I've got RowPro, though I've not used it much. when I have, I've especially liked its ability to compare workouts. Also, Frank, how'd you hook up the additional sensor so that you can use both pieces of software?<br /><br />tony

Anybody here used it? Is it worth the 100 bucks compared to the PM3? How has it assisted your training, if it has?<br /><br />tony

Hey John,<br /><br />yep, exercise is not a pre-requisite to weight loss for sure. <br /><br />Nope, running just sucks for me having done so much of it for so long - shucks I began "running" in 1970 - argh; that's when my running shoes were Converse high tops Backpacking, however, is still on my li...

Hi Yoda,<br /><br />I'm not sure what part of it you'd like me to explain, so I apologize if I'm off the mark. I only meant to say that my energy fuel is simply taking in about 60% protein, 20% carbs (low glycemic load value - see www.glycemic.com) and the other 20% in good quality fats. Also, since...

<br />Heather,<br /><br />FWIW, within the hour or two preceding "eating when you don't need to," do you have an idea as to the Glycemic load of the foods that you ate at that time? Foods w/ high glycemic loads can produce "down the pike" a significant enough alteration in the insulin/glucagon cycle...

Also, find a local nutritionist, health club, etc., that has a "Body Gem" BMR (basal metabolic rate) measuring device. In 30 minutes total you can find...

Well, no one can say that a reasonable question doesn't deserve to go unpunished. <br /><br />tony
