About Me
I live in L.A. I work, I like birds and I have a book review website. I'm trying to stop my weight from going up and down throughout the year with a steadier diet and exercise plan. Going to need some luck, here.

Envirotodd replied to the topic Shoulders hurt after running in the forum Running Forum 3 days, 21 hours ago
Sounds like it could be an issue with your form. Are you running with your shoulders relaxed and your elbows bent at a 90 degree angle? Are you making sure that you’re not leaning forward too much but that you’re also not forcing yourself to be ramrod straight as you run? Could be form. Check into proper running form and compare how you’ve been…[Read more]

Good job! Keep it up and it will become second nature to do these things over time. It will make a difference.

Envirotodd started the topic Exercising in sunlight in the forum Weight Loss and Exercise 2 weeks, 4 days ago
It’s hard to get all the sunlight I need these days so when I see the sun out, if I have the chance, I go for a walk, do yoga or some other exercise in sunlight. I like to go for a walk, but as long as I can be in the sunbeam while I exercise, I’ll do it inside since it’s cold out. Worst case, I’ll just look outside a lot at the sunshine. I bet…[Read more]

Burpees aren’t fun but they’re perfect plyometrics to really get some power out of 5 minutes. In fact, if you can keep them up for a solid 5 minutes then you’re definitely fitter than me!

I don’t get snow, but I can drive to it. It won’t be a part of my workouts every day, but I look forward to hiking through it when the time comes in the new year!

Thanks. Yeah, cardio at intensity seems to be the way to go I guess. Thanks for the tips. I appreciate it.

Stretch as much as you can. If you get a break, stand up and move around in whatever way is possible. Anything is better than nothing.

What are your favorite exercises for blasting away stress and anxiety. The holiday season is coming and I’m determined to do everything I can not to get depressed.

Envirotodd replied to the topic What's the best dance workout? in the forum Activity Forums 3 months, 3 weeks ago
You don’t even necessarily need a dance workout. You could just dance. Pick a kind you like and you’ll be active. Everything from line dancing to latin dance is supposed to be great. I know someone who thought she would die from a barre workout and that’s ballet stuff, if I understand it right. Any of them is good. THe key is to find the one you…[Read more]

Envirotodd started the topic How to prevent getting stung by a wasp in the forum Health Forums 4 months ago
I’m trying to get outside every day for walks and jogs in daylight while the weather is absolutely perfect for it. I know colder days are coming and my motivation will drop, so I’m building the habit now. But there are so many wasps/yellowjackets out right now and they’re very aggressive! Does anyone know how I can prevent getting stung? I’m not…[Read more]

Envirotodd replied to the topic How to get more cardio without going faster? in the forum Cycling Forum 4 months, 1 week ago
Thanks! I haven’t felt confident enough to head back to tougher trails after a bad fall last year. You’re right that it’s likely my best option for reaching my goal. I should start giving that a try.

Envirotodd replied to the topic summer heart rate in the forum Health Forums 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Mine goes up and down like that every few weeks. It happens all year, not just in the hot or cold weather. I think it’s normal for it not to stay exactly the same all the time.

Envirotodd started the topic How to get more cardio without going faster? in the forum Cycling Forum 5 months ago
If I want to get more cardio out of a bike ride but I don’t want to go faster, is it just a matter of changing gears or is that dangerous? Trying to figure out if I can get the kind of workout I’d get from an indoor spin class, but outside on trails and roads. I don’t want to go as fast as I can though.

Envirotodd replied to the topic Do you sweat when you swim? in the forum Swimming Forum 5 months, 1 week ago
you definitely sweat when you swim. You also use water in other ways because you’re being active and likely breathing deeper. Still hydrate when you’re swimming (just not with pool water ha ha)

Thanks. I’ll try both those things. Hopefully the combined effort will work. Hopefully the weather will cool a bit, too!

Thanks for the comments. I’ll try showering off immediately to get any pool chemicals off. I hope that does it!

Any recommendations for summer workouts that won’t cause heat rash on legs, or how to prevent it in the first place while sticking to the workouts I already do? I’ve never had this before, but this year is so hot out!
