    Yep! What program are you doing? I’ve fairly recently started StrongLifts 5x5 after doing ~6 months of bodypump classes.

    Always. I'm doing a slightly modified Strong Curves to fit the equipment (and body) I have available.

    I've just gotten permission to work out again, so I started up with Strong Lifts 5x5 because it's soothing and familiar.

    Yep. I’m cutting atm. About 5 pounds left to go. Hoping to bulk in about a month or so.

    Starting a little cut this week - after a sort of 'accidental' bit of bulking :s Need to up my training days from a lazy 2 to a more acceptable 3/4. My upper body muscles are ok when the 2/3 of kilos of fluff go away, but my weight mostly sits around my thighs, so I have been doing some more leg work lately.

    Awesome! I don’t think I have the mental strength to bulk and cut so it’s a slower recomp situation for me.

    I'm with you!! Still trying to lose body fat/keep muscle - about 5lbs more to go. I'm about 1 lb from the upper limit of the ideal weight for my height, so may just switch to recomp at that point. I'm working through the Strong book by Lou Schiller and Alwyn Cosgrove (of the New Rule for Lifting series) Tomorrow is the start of Stage 4!

    Same here! I've been lifting for a few years, but I just got a new weight set a few weeks ago and started a PHUL routine. Good times!

    (I want to have a nice physique, of course, but long term I want to retain my physical capabilities well into my 80s and 90s and lifting will help with that).
