    I'm amused because usually it's dudes who get into this ****, and then someone chimes in making fun of the testosterone-fueled battle. Or maybe "she" is really a bored fat guy who got tired trolling bb.com and needed a change of scenery.

    if she really was a lifter, she'd have more pics than just her face.

    she'd have something up there she was proud of

    She is just bored, and we have entertained her for a few minutes, time to move on.

    We're all here for the same reason.

    Really? Excuse you and your ignorance. 90 degrees increases torque and increases the chance for injury.

    I'm sure you use that same excuse for your squats.

    I called it! ...on a friend's wall that we were being expertly trolled.

    Well-played. Well. Played.


    (Although admittedly, using the direct insults every single time for the last 4-5 posts was a little over the top. I probably would have went with a backhanded compliment followed by some kind of thinly-veiled blanket insult, but we all have our own style. You went with what works best for you, though, and I can't criticize anyone for going with what they know.)

    But my actual true main point was that you're all idiots. You don't know her experience or abilities. So to say she needs to be doing what you are pushing off onto her, you are clueless, and it is clear why you are not a personal trainer. You aren't taking her physical ability into consideration. For example... is she doing upper body exercise because she has a lower body injury? And you all are pushing that on her? Is she doing arm work because she has a disc tear? And you want her to do deadlifts, squats, and overhead press?

    Not just that you guys all ambushed her and told her what to do, you disregarded what SHE wants to do. You're all idiots.

    So why come here at all then? You didn't even read all the responses before you replied. Not all of us were"pushing" her to do anything. I personally said "you *might* benefit". She's new poster with no pictures, and empty profile, and she didn't leave much information. Yes, we assumed she was a beginner. However you assumed we were all clueless idiots, which is worse?

    I did, they were all negating what she specifically asked for.

    Obviously not. There are 3 or 4 posts listing specific weights that she asked for.

    Dips. Learn them.

    Oh wait, you can't, because you're stuck in the mindset of a narrowminded loser.

    In a few years, you are going to look back at your life, remember this thread and feel incredibly embarrassed.

    Methinks Sleepyhouse22 is a big girl now and is able to squat with 5 lb plates on her (women's 35 lb) barbell. She looks super-duper cute doing it in her cute workout outfit with color-coordinated sneakers.

    Haha. And when she broke a sweat with that, she goes on the interwebs and smack talks other women to try to address her obvious insecurity.

    Sorry, I'm not that annoying ***** who takes pictures of herself at the gym to try and feel accomplish. I write down my gains on pen and paper, not on my Facebook.

    You need to go back to FB and get off MFP.

    When one protests too much, there's usually a reason.... also looks like someone needs a hug!

    Learn how to respond like an adult, as opposed to a pre-pubescent adolescent who has no vocabulary other than the word *kitten*!

    How heavy do you go for Biceps, triceps, shoulders and back?

    As much as you can, maintaining good form for as long as you can . . . usually 10-12 reps.
