    When you consider 135, 225, 315, 405, and 495 (lbs) nice round numbers....

    Yeah! No more of that 137.5 crap!

    you might be a weight lifter when:

    (1) You offer to help your friends move before they even ask
    (2) your friends/family don't blink twice when you carry a 90 lb sleeping child to bed while wearing stillettos.

    You ask your husband for weightlifting gloves for Christmas because you are getting calluses from the heavier weights.

    You just helped me know what I want for Christmas! Up until now, I haven't known what to tell my hubby!

    Really. This is my genuine honest to goodness reason for wanting them. Accessorizing while lifting is OK with me. I do it in victory rolls fer pete's sakes!

    When someone reads your weight lifting thread and they are scared to start lifting of fear that you all will tell her she's doing it wrong:)

    agreed. I somehow deleted the pics of me using those.... darn. That was a great pic too.

    I was gonna say look at Nerdy_rose's pic...the one that shows her lifting glove. That wins. You know it. I know it. She knows it.
