> I’ve got a question for fat loss. I’ve always been able to run as much as I want (while I was trying to stay in shape that is) but now I am not able to run on the ground for extended periods of time. I have compartment syndrome which prohibits me from abusing my shins too much…

Cardio is one of the best weight loss activities- why don’t you run on a more forgiving surface, such as grass.
