    All of you ladies did a fantastic job with your before and after.

    My only reservation about weight training is it won't reflect on the scale.

    Any tips on why I should begin now my weight training? Or if not why so?

    This was over year ago at my leanest, after 4-5 months of xfit and weight lifting; previously I was a cardio bunny with NO upper body strength.

    The biggest change in my body that I have noticed was in my shoulders/arms not fitting into blazers/jackets/blouses. It's a rather expensive result of weight training. but I am otherwise pleased with the results.

    Now that's some great definition! Way to go!

    Just a few recent shots. I am a former anorexic, then I was simply normal weight, but somewhat flabby and unfit. I also have COPD and only 68% lung function. I do a combination of weights, boxing, circuits, cycling and running.
    Now 14% bodyfat and a healthy weight. Always working on my fitness.


    You look great - and healthy! That's what I love about fitness, you can always work on it :drinker:
