    Who considers 30's middle age? even 40's doesn't qualify!

    I would love to be added. Not sure how this works. I’m randomly just pressing buttons. I hope I can be part of a supportive group of people.

    Dont want to sound negative but why would you want someone as friends if you have not interacted with them either on forums or thru mutual friends? and probably even if added you would not interact with them?

    Hello, hello, hello. Come on in and make yourselves comfortable. We've got enormous chairs, Liza Doolittle style.

    What's everyone up to this weekend? I have an extended karate class, a trip to the police station, buying crickets for my tarantula, making up an order for a client, giving a massage and thenI'm done for the day. Tomorrow is a birthday party for my 5 year old's friend!

    I have a lot of friends like that. Sure, some are the silent type, but a few likes can be encouraging. And how do you know whether they are going to interact unless you try. They may become the puzzle piece you have been missing and didn't even know it. Life is much poorer turning down opportunities just because they may not work out. You are missing out on some awesome people

    That said, anyone can add me as a friend. I accept all friend requests and have made some wonderfully supportive friends after they became friends

    i might be missing out but so far its been working for me. i only accept mutual friends who seem very supportive and active on friends posts. ☺

    I'm glad it's working for you. I am a compulsive friend adder. I'm working on it. I try not to add every single person but usually I can't stop myself. But I have such an awesome group of friends. Maybe they are all just indulging my nuttiness, but I choose to think not. :tongue:

    I follow the PHAT program. It combines heavy lifting with hypertrophy, best of both worlds.

    Can you enlight me on what hypertrophy is.. Im new to the workout world..

    Heavy lifting is where you do reps of 1 to 5 repitions

    Hypertrophy is where you do maybe 8 to 12 repetitions. So, it’s not heavy.

    Heavy lifting is to increase strength. Hypertrophy is to increase size. The PHAT program incorporates both into a program.
