Not divorced....yet.... weigh everything into consideration, and take your time, the is really no reason to rush. We dated for 2.5 years, had 6 months of beautiful happy marriage and now, I feel like I need out. It feels wrong. So please don't rush, and think about what you guys have in common, do you always have fun…

I will be doing figure in may, i build muscle easy so i figured i would try that first, then if i don't like it then i can always do bikini in the next one, i really wanna go for fitness next year though

Okinawa Japan! whooo!! can't wait!

for women competitors, how did leaning down affect your MS? I am down to a very low BF% and this is my second period this month, i just got off one two weeks ago, my trainer says it is do to the BF loss, anyone else have any issues?

gym does no have to be your only exercise , find something you enjoy that gets you motivated, for me it is pole dancing, but for others it may be boxing, running, walking the dogs, yoga or even any type of dancing. Once you start knowing you way around the gym it will become more comfortable, i feel deterred when i join a…

dumb bell Wood chop, ugh hate hate hate!!!! but i do them anyways :(

jump and holds work great , :)

thank you everyone for posting this thread! it is very helpful, makes me realize that i am not eating enough, time to bump up! thanks ladies!

got married september 10th, went on a cruise for the honeymoon, and worked out 2 x a day in their little gym, when we were back home i really hit training hard, i refuse to be the wife that lets herself go.!

I don't really care, i could probably come up with "ten reasons not to eat clean", or "ten reasons not to get in shape" there is probably ten reasons why you should not do anything, it is all opinion., it is controversial, but i listen to my body, and it needs to cheat every once in a while. life is too short to constantly…

Best money I ever spent! I would not trade them for the world, went from an A cup to a D, and since i have some junk in the trunk now i am perfectly balanced, they look extremely natural now that my body fat is lower, Just do you research and take care of them, you get what you pay for so be careful. My Doctor was Dr Malek…

I have a lil mynx pole, it is static/ rotator combo, mounts to the ceiling only, Xpole is also a good reliable brand as well just do your research and be safe!!

well girls that have to lose less, seem to actually work harder, but don't focus too much on "weight" because i have been working nonstop for 5 months and maybe dropped 1-2 lbs, however i have lost 4% body fat, and i am happy with my progress each time i got through measurements each month, so just work hard and try not to…

my most useful exercises are not weight lifting but calisthenics or body weight exercises. especially ones that build muscle endurance, like planks, pull ups , handstands.and pushups they have helped me a lot with pole.

ignore people like that, i always have my headphones on and i am in my own world at the gym, i could care less who is checking me out, or you could come up with a smart *kitten* comment to make him feel stupid. that is always amusing lol

only people who eat like crap, give me **** about counting calories, or those who won't take the initiative to get in shape, it does not bother me at all :)

you are pretty good!! nice form, i hate doing the superman but it looks so nice, it just hurts so badly lol

really? because I am way lower than 15 % now. and i know i and not but enough for figure yet, i still have some work to do, I have been told by judges that I am perfect for bikini now though/

Mine IS honky tonk badonk-a-donk lol love that song :)

yea the cross ankle hold is always a bit scary i started off just doing it from the ground and doing tiny sit ups, that way if i happened to fall i was only about a foot from the ground.

good goals guys!!! you will get there !!

buy a pole!!! i love exercising!!!!!

7 days a week even if it is just a short ab session or a run, but i always try to burn at least 300 calories minimum

yes, and I did. and it is still the best money I have ever spent, :) no regrets whatsoever,

if you are eating clean while you are training for your marathon, your BF% should go down on its own, but if you want to add even more cardio to your days then that will help too. Have you tried running with ankle weights or a weight vest? It helps burn more calories, and is also an incentive not to gain any weigh back lol…

I barely drink cows ilk at all anymore, i have mostly switched to almond, and it tastes better! if I do drink milk it is organic for sure !

well instead of lowering your goal weight why not shoot for a figure goal, and forget about the scale altogether? Now that you have reached your goal weight, concentrate on core strength and toning up, maybe building muscle. you have come a very long way,!! be happy!!!

this is so funny! lol

I have been on a fish and greek yogurt kick for the last few days, I mix tuna/ salmon or even tofu with 1/4 cup of greek yogurt, some salsa, and some banana peppers or peppercinis. It is really fantastic. i made it one time with a can of tuna as a last minute dinner and it had over 80 grams of protein and only 425…

my protein is always in the red, I eat up to 140 grams per day, but i am trying to build muscle, muscles need protein to grow. The rule that I go by it to eat 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. So since i weight 117 i get a minimum of 117 grams of protein per day. you can go to your settings and change it if the…
