I did the Body Gem RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate) measured a couple of weeks ago. It's great! You just sit and blow into the machine for 5-10 minutes and presto! You know your RMR. There's a calculator on the website to estimate your RMR. Turns out that mine was 400 calories more per day than the webs...

Yeah - I finished my 200k HC w/ a (pathetically slow) HM - woohoo! <br /><br />It's probably a t-shirt for me instead of a hoodie since i'm in texas and it's going to be 70 on Christmas - but i'm very pleased nonetheless.<br /><br />Michelle

Wow - Excellent!! Highly enjoyable - Michelle

CONGRATULATIONS HOOSIER DUCK!!! <br /><br />That's really exciting - <br /><br />BTW - I'm an IU grad too - I appreciated the IU update on the your profile the other day - thanks! GO IU!! <br /><br />I had to study alot this weekend, so I didn't get to row as much as I'd have liked - but did sneak ...

I did it tonight... been awhile since I'd been able to play, so I joined in tonight, although it was one of those nights that I couldn't get into a good groove - ahh well - sometimes it's like that for me. But tomorrow's another day ... <br /><br />

hehe - ya'll are funny - I finished my 100k tonight too... so I can pitch in a few meters against dougs... <br /><br />but really - very excited, and looking forward to the rest - <br /><br />Michelle

Well, I'm not a doctor, nor do i play one on TV - but the tightness after you row may be more of the using new muscles variety of pain - especially if it's getting better (which is always good!) But don't try to push it - I'm a believer in listening to my body if something doesn't feel right. Of cou...

Excellent! Good work this evening - late night rowing counts too! I started my Holiday Challenge at 12:15 am Thursday morning of Thanksgiving (I was excited so I stayed up late on Wednesday night. Hehe... ) <br /><br />Michelle

I did it this month - I don't do this one very often, but was here tonight and had a few extra minutes tonight. But I've also decided that this isn't my favorite - I'm just not a sprinter I guess - I enjoyed my half marathon on Saturday more. <br /><br />But sometimes, you gotta suck it up and take ...

Hi Cuserower02 - <br /><br />Does it hurt during the row or after or both? <br />Have you ever had this sort of thing when you've rowed before? <br /><br />I've had back issues over the years - every so often I've pulled/ strained a muscle doing something/ whatever, and then aggrevated things by doi...

Grams - You are the WOMAN! You rock - I can only hope that I can follow in your footsteps someday! <br /><br />Otherwise - I'm 50k into the challenge. I have never rowed that many meters in one week, so I'm thrilled - and except for the not so fun sore bum - not hurting!! And this was supposed to be...

<br />Hi Ellen!<br /><br />I hit my million meters today! And you're right, it feels mighty good seeing that grand total. I had to row over 17k today to hit it, but I wanted to get it before I started the Holiday Challenge, just to have a clean slate for the next "goal." And I burned up 900kcal to, ...

Wow, Kelley, you have been having some rough times lately! You're right about the rowing though--sure helps to de-stress. CookieMonster and I discussed once about the value of "comfort foods," and we then decided that there is such a thing as "comfort rowing." We were kinda/sorta joking about it, bu...

I'm definitely in too! I was hoping to go at the 200k level, but not sure that I'll have time permitting, but am so ready to get back to my rower! November was bad - i was sick, crazy busy w/ school, and had an uncle that got sick & passed away last week. So I'm ready to work off alot of stress on t...
