My goals: A. need to lose about 10lbs fat, mostly around mid section B. Chest development, always weak area for me. C. just look good in tshirt, I am not a body builder by any means. Just look fit for my age (44)

He also had me stand against a wall. He pointed out that my palms were facing behind me. It felt very unnatural to have them face forward but he said that is b/c the muscle the form my posture are not developed properly.

rainbow that is great info. He did mention that my slouching is weaker rhomboid muscles. What are good lifts for that? I struggle with the cardio theory. My diet is not the best so I would try to really do long cardio to burn a ton of cals. He said and I agree I need to lose 10lbs of fat, mostly around mid section. That…

rileyes u think there's that much difference between a bent over row and seated cable row? another reason I like the cable is it is much quicker as time is a factor for me in the morning. I will definitely add more lunges. I did a few with the trainer and my balance was pretty bad. Also my hamstrings were actually sore…

Thanks. It was definitely a sales pitch at the end. I modified SL over time due to back issues. Replaced barbell row with seated cable row. Replaced OH press with seated press machine. Stopped doing deads after I threw my back out doing dead lifts. I added trap work and curls just because. He did say my hamstrings & gluts…

Thanks - I had originally packed another turkey sandwich but tossed it. Don't have much of an appetite anyway.

lettuce with any meat, especially meat served hot and anything saucy. I like salads and will order grilled chicken or steak on it but I eat the chicken/steak separate from the lettuce. Also ordered a meatball marinara once it came covered in shredded lettuce. Sorry but marinara covered lettuce is nasty.

Almost daily 5 grams post workout and the last week or so the additional 2.5 grams (1 tablet). Before that I was sporadically taking the extra 2.5 grams.

Very similar to you. I think I lost most of my weight via extended cardio & low calories. After hitting my goal I got more and more into weight lifting. Maybe it's an excuse but my calories increased - not sure if I justified it by that I am lifting weights = more calories for muscle growth or maybe I just got lazy since I…

I have a sweet tooth (always had dessert after dinner) and now I usually have a Simple Truth Frozen Greek Yogurt bar. Great taste and 100 calories. Does the trick for me.

I workout first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and had good results. For one, you don't have to worry about food cramps. I had switched to evenings for a while and noticed my results go down. I blamed it on having a few sodas during the day and decent size lunch. I think (you can google it) but there are benefits…

How many days a week should I bench? I have done SL 5X5 and still follow it to some extent. I do 3X5 then 2 more sets at progressively lower weight. I also do cable Xover (see inner chest incinerator on youtube) and push ups. I try to hit chest 2X week
