i dont like lifting :( no results

I hate lifting too, it's not fun for me. I still strength train because I know it's important, I just do yoga or pilates instead,

is pilates considered strength training?

I also HATE lifting...it's so boring to me to do the same repetitive motion over and over again. I prefer body weight exercises like pilates also. I started p90x3 about a month ago and like that wayyy better. It can also be argued that exercises like that are better for you because the movements target a variety of muscles versus just one with traditional weight lifting.

So.... in order words, you enjoy those because it's easier than lifting heavy weights.

So basically you're saying people who don't like strength training are LAZY? That's why I run 10 miles at a time, because it's easy, obviously. God forbid someone actually enjoys something different then you.

And just fyi, yoga and pilates are not easy. Often I wake up sore out of my mind and feel extremely challenged.

No. I'm more so referring to the fact that "Body Weight Exercises" are also repetitive continuous movements - ie. pushups, crunches, pullups and other movements in p90x etc. They just happen to be easier than say Squats or Deadlifts at 80% of your 1rm.

Also the comment that they target a variety of different muscles, but lifting weights doesn't?

If you want to run, run. If you want to do pilates, do pilates. At least make sense when you're trying to prove a point though.

I did not make the comment about body weight exercises, nor do I agree with it.

I suppose it's a good thing my original post was not in reference to you, but to the poster who did in fact say that then huh?

I still disagree with your implication that people who chose to strength train different ways are doing so because it's easier.

That's a lazy argument to make.

1. You're overlooking the context
2. If you want to keep it arguing feel free to PM me. I don't want to derail OP further.

Well, unless you progress to a one-armed pushup or a pistol squat.

squat- 50 lbs 5x5

deadflift-100 lbs 5x5

row- 20 lbs 5x5

press- 40 5x5

and please do not say go heavier because this is still heavy for me

What does that even mean?

If someone put a gun to your head and said, "give me five squats with a 55 lb bar or I shoot you," would you be able to do it?

And now for the progressive overload portion of our program

:laugh: :laugh:

MOVE ALONG HERE PEOPLE, I CANT PLAY NICE WITH OTHERS

You play nice with me

Bump

Seriously? Bumping a thread that someone posted on a minute ago. NVM looked at post history

You made me curious so I checked it out too. 90% of her posts just say "bump"

*boggle*

To me it also sounds like you are not following the program, and not eating in a deficit. Fixing these might not make it more enjoyable for you, but it will get you results.

MOVE ALONG HERE PEOPLE, I CANT PLAY NICE WITH OTHERS

You play nice with me

Everyone should play nice with you if they have any sense!

Sweet Mother of.....

Let's argue with or ignore the people who are successful. They have nice bodies, they've never been fat or struggled.
