Hellllooooo Lifters!!!

I just wanted to let y'all know that I am turning 31 years of age next Tuesday! I have just posted up a photo on my Facebook page "THE BAKING MAD GYM ADDICT" of how I looked at aged 21 when I was just doing cardio.

I would not say I was a large girl at 21 but you can definitely see the difference in my body now that I have started lifting weights (and I only really started lifting in the last year) Hello lines, lumps and bumps!.

Feel free to check it out and let me know what you think. The photo actually makes me look forward to the next 10 years at how much my body will look if I continue this path

I hope y'all are having a wonderful day!

This is the link here for anyone that is interested

PS - if anyone can tell me how to add a picture to one of these forums please let me know as I worry that I will get into trouble with MFP for mentioning my facebook page!!! I am hopeless at these forum thingys! Where is the paperclip icon to add pictures???

LIFT HEAVY. GO HARD OR GO HOME!

xXx

    You look amazing! Way to go :-D. I couldn't agree more that weight training is the way to go. I was a cardio fanatic for years, but it wasn't untill I was introduced to real weight training I really started to see changes in my body.

    Lift like a man, look like a goddess!

    You look amazing! Sadly, you will have women still say that they gained 10 pounds of muscle and got bulky within 2 months of lifting. Ugh.

    I'm sure you have shared this somewhere but I can't find it . . . what is your lifting routine?
