Hi

I need some more lifters on my friend list.

Just added a couple of people from the introductions just starting out like me but I wonder if there is anyone in the UK who wants to be my friend so people are running on my time?

I live just outside London.

Thanks

    I live in Suffolk. Done 7 weeks of stage one of NROLFW but have taken a break as my back and neck have been a bit poorly. Going to restart with the weights Monday. Even invested in a barbell/dumbbell set instead of just hand weights.

    Anyone feel free to add me. Be nice to have people to compare results and ideas with.

    I'm half way through stage one. I work out at home too, which is fun.

    Everything I do is at home. The average gym membership is about £35 a month and I just don't have that. Plus the thought of working out in the weights room with men is a bit off putting. :s

    Added everyone!

    I have tried Chalean Extreme and I've been through it twice in my lounge so not brand new to weights but have fallen for them and their effects on my inches as well as overall health (I swear I've not had a proper cold since I started).

    Invested in some at home for that so so far I've only bought a new Swiss Ball.

    Agreed gym far too pricey, and Its nice not going out in all this rain!

    Most people when they hear I love weights and been at them 6 months seem to be surprised I don't look like Jodie Marsh yet....

    Even when you look at Jodie Marsh not oiled up she doesn't look like a she-Hulk. Her efforts are different to ours, though - we're lifting to get stronger, she's doing it to shape her muscles.

    I'm going to do the modifications at home with a friend and a pair of dumbells, and a Swiss ball. I can't afford the gym either!

    Another Somerset gal here, although I live in Bahrain, which is 2 whole hours ahead of you ;)

    Anyone's welcome to add me. I'm at the end of stage 3 and work out at home.

    I'm in Scotland, got the New Rules book but frightened of starting, building up confidence doing some lifting in the bloke corner of the gym, just not ready to do anything that might draw attention to me at the moment. Feel free to add me, looking for more UK friends, especially those who eat more than a sparrow! :-))

    Yeah part of reason for starting this was looking at friends lists and seeing people eating around 1000 tops

    No kidding, i just de-friended someone (not a lifter) who nets about 600 cals daily, she told me she already eats loads when suggested she eat more....

    I can't condone that!
