@MJFSH, hmmmm, good luck with the bulk. I'd love to try that but at my age, height and weight I still have too much fat on me. I may go for a maintenance recomp though....
Oh my! Fat on you? no way! you are so lean girl!
This bulking thing is a first for me also, have been doing what I do, but don't see legs definition, so something had to change, if I gain weight in the process of building legs, I will deal with it later, but my intentions are to gain lean muscles, as if it's possible without adding fat on the side! haha
Cardio: Turbofire, Fire 45 EZ, but only 25 minutes of it
Strength: Perfect Summer Shred: Legs
It's been about one week of making changes, and I see weight is already increasing, trying hard to be brave and trust it's stepping in the right direction, I will give it a month for now and see what happens next.0 -
@MJFSH, Hah, thanks but still pudgy in places. I'm just trying to maintain the weight and lean out a little. I would like to build some muscle too though.
Good luck on your bulk. That is a little scary but you already know how to get rid of the weight when you're done so you'll be fine.
Cardio: Took the dog out for a 2.75 mile run but had to walk about .25 of it up a hill. I keep trying to conquer that thing but haven't quite gotten there yet. I'm running a 5K in 3 weeks so I'm trying to get at least a couple of 2.75 - 3.5 mile runs in per week.
Strength: Not today.
Assessment: I've done really well since Saturday getting my protein in.........trying to keep it up if possible. I don't know why it's so difficult, I'm not even that much of a carb person.....LOL0 -
