I'm glad you found the site! I have checked out the Livestrong stuff and it's pretty good but right now, I'm really liking Sparkpeople.com It's free and they have a lot of foods in the database plus a fairly large community. There are other online calorie counters, etc. as well so it shouldn't be hard to find one that fits. Keep watching and reading. Take care. Hi Jon-Eric,

There's a good set of tools I've used to track calories/exercise on LiveStrong: http://www.livestrong.com/tools/ They have a good database of most foods and even a few craft beers!

I would suggest visiting some local bike shops and telling them what you are looking for. Don't go to the big box stores! You want a bike with quality components. The frame will probably be Aluminum and the component set should be a basic Shimano set up. The bike shop can help you get fitted properly (which is the most important part). Some brands to look for might be Specialized, Felt, Trek & Giant. If you have a Performance bike shop in your area visit them as well. Good luck!

That's key for staying healthy plus being able to enjoy good food and drink. If you're running 30 minutes 3x/week plus circuit training you are burning a fair amount of calories. Mtn biking will add even more. Keep it up! Sounds like you are very active! That’s key for staying healthy plus being able to enjoy good food and drink.

I have a Gary Fisher Wahoo Hardtail mtn bike. Any suggestions for a road bike? I would be willing to spend $300-500 bucks. I'm not sure if you are familiar with bikes for people of my frame, but any help would be appreciated. Forgot to add my question. I have a Gary Fisher Wahoo Hardtail mtn bike.

I am 25 and at 5'6 I weigh around 130 pounds. I love my craft beers and with my body size I have to work out at least 3 days a week to keep myself in check. I generally run 30 mins and then do circuit strength training for about 30 minutes. I'm looking into mixing it up this spring with mtn biking. This is an awesome idea.

I'm having a lot of fun putting them together, that's for sure! As far as the fitness thing goes, I've had some response, but not as much as I thought. I'll probably do another video or two on the subject and see if there is more response. I spend 5-10 hours a week working out so for me, fitness is a regular part of my life. It definitely allows me to drink great beer without having to worry about my weight. I checked out your site and it looks like you guys are making some good beers. I'd love to try them! Happy brewing and thanks for the kind words! Mark Hi Tom,
