My company is offering fitbits at a reduced price, so I'm looking into getting one. Does anyone here have experience with the Fitbit Surge? I'm really interested in how the multisport function works and how you like it? Couldn't find anything in the archives when I searched.

my friend can help you. let me send him here.

about a dozen years ago, I finished grad school and worked with an RD on weight loss plan and also trained for distance cycling - mostly for 100km rides.

I did manage weight loss during that time, but I had to work very carefully to do it. On days when I had either long rides or intervals, I really had to monitor and make sure I was getting enough food in. This was made more difficult by the inconvenience of my body loathing solid food on long ride days. I met with my RD weekly and we looked at the previous week's results, not just in terms of whether I was losing, but my endurance and how I was feeling. And then we'd plan the next week's intake in line with my workout plan for that week. I ended up overtraining and having to skip that last century due to a whopping case of bronchitis. Once Iwent back to a more reasonable training schedule, the whole process got much easier.

Do you have your lean mass tested? One other thing is that your body tends to store more glycogen when you're endurance training - it needs to.

yes, testing lean mass is a good idea.

Has anyone done beyond barre for exercise when still having an over 40 BMI.

i dont think its possible for a person having 40+ BMI and do beyond barre.
