    Naked and flexing are your street clothes?

    I'm no genius either, but my guess is the pictures with her in clothing are the pictures of her in "street clothes" that the OP had requested, and the pictures of her naked and flexing are not.

    I could be totally off base here.

    Yes I lift heavy, I'd like to lift heavier. Working on that. OHP 50 lbs is the best I got. I was to 85 lbs squats 5x5 before I had to quit for ... reasons :tongue:
    And I'd like to be "bulkier" if that means bigger muscles :wink: Working on that too!

    But no, I am not bulky. lol. See profile pic for me in street clothes

    Figured I'd show what was under the clothes since people automatically assume having "big" muscles means being "bulky". I thought the variety of pics was a good demonstration that muscles do not equate to bulky. And what if I do walk around nekkid and flexing outside? What's it to ya? ;)

    I LOVE your back!!!! AWESOME JOB.

    Heh. I hope I'm not considered "bulky"....but this extra fat is taking a little longer to take a hike than I'm happy about (I eat all the crappy food though!). As for lifting - well, here are my current numbers: Squat - 175-185#, Deads - 205-215#, OHP - 85-90#, thruster 110#, bench 105# (haven't checked recently). So yeah, I think I lift heavy. ATTENTION WH0RES UNITE! Love this.
    Oh, I'm 5'5, 153#.

    SKINNY JEANS!

    <---- I don't think I'm bulky. I still have weight to lose (especially around my midsection), but I'm getting there. I'm at work, so I can't post a full on picture.

    Here's what I'm lifting:

    Squat - 155lbs
    Deadlift - 150lbs
    Bench - 95lbs
    Row - 65lbs
    OHP - 65lbs

    Edit to say that I'm 5'6" and I weigh 183. I wear a size 10/12 pants.

    OP, I love the Halloween costumes you and your hubby are sporting!

    Ha. Thanks. We thought we were quit cleaver but then we saw another couple at the bar that were Lance and a member of the US ADA. Had we been less drunk we would have taken a picture of all of us together.
