    You look incredible. I am finishing stage 3 of NROLFW. Would you still follow the same progression in the programs you used? (After NROLFW doing ABS, etc....)

    You look wonderful. I am a true believer of weight training. Many women are afraid of weights, I prefer not to jiggle when I move.. You can bounce a quarter of my bootie

    I would progress as follows, if I was to re-do it, I think:

    1. NROL4W;
    2. NROL4Abs;
    3. Venus Index.

    That's so amazing! You look fantastic! I'm 5'9 with a goal of 135-145 (depending on how I look and BF%). I've been lifting heavy-ish, but using mainly machines for about a year now, but I'm slowly transitioning to mostly free weights. I work FT and am taking 19 hours at college too, so I'm pretty busy, but I have to make time for the gym. Thanks for the extra motivation!

    I did heavy lifting for 4 months and lost a few pounds, not much. A lot of powerlifters are fat too.

    Proper Nutrition + heavy lifting is more efficient.

    Awesome transformation!!!!! Good for you!:)

    I just want to day that I did body 4 life using only free weights and lifting to failure. I probably won't do this approach again, but I did have fantastic results.

    * not recently, many years ago...

    FitSassy - no, I have always kept a long-ish (75 minutes) cardio session on Saturday mornings. Because I have severe asthma, it *is* necessary that I keep my cardio health as much as I can!
