I agree! Kira you are amazing!! I'm deloading as well. I have been very achy for a while, all over but especially my knees. I have been pushing through it and I feel better while I'm working out then I feel worse after the workout. Sooo yesterday rather than skip the workout completely I stretched a lot before hand as…

Wow!! You are strong!!! 175lb squat!!!! You are my hero!!!

Macy, I'm glad you are feeling better enough to workout! I too tried Jefit after I saw your comment, I guess it was Kira that suggested it originally, anyway thank you both! I am very happy with how it works for recording the lifting! The save and start timer button is great! it saves me having to go to the timer before i…

zany, the fractionals were 47 dollars Canadian. They will be more because we will have to send them back. Grrr! We should have just spent the 65 dollars to buy them at the place in town. sigh...live and learn. random, my husband and I run one minute and walk one minute usually for about 5 or 6 K. We do it at a fairly easy…

Random so sorry about your knee! I had a great workout tonight! My fractionals arrived but they wouldn't go on my bar so I was quite annoyed because I had done a really thorough warmup in anticipation of increasing my weights by half a pound! When I found out that it wasn't going to happen the way I had envisioned I…

I am waiting impatiently for my fractionals to arrive!!! This week: Squat:107 lb Bench: 87 DL: 165 P. Row: 87 OHP: 62 I am quite pleased with myself because I worked out MWF. No excuses!! Now I just need to get it so I wake up early so I don't have to be doing it late in the day when I am all ready tired. I want the habit…

Chunkmunk you are awesome!! What a wonderful story!!

Wow!!! lwoodruff!! that is 187lb DL!! I had to convert!! Awesome!!!

I'm 51 and have been doing SL for almost a year. It is good to be strong. Go for it!

Yobecca comment: Fisherlassie - one of my fellow boot camp instructors always tells campers, when we're doing air squats "The more of these you do, the longer you'll be able to go to the bathroom by yourself! Squat for independence!" Have you tried, or looked into, using a foam roller for your butt issue? I have IT band…

Wow!! You women are all Awesome!! I haven't been on here in quite a while, we went away and then it took a while to get back into the swing of things. For some reason I was having some joint issues that were effecting my lifting and I still have that tendon or whatever problem in my butt. However I did eventually start…

I love hearing about all of your interests!

I have 4 good sports bras and then two other bras that I can wear for non bouncy activities. It isn't enough because the sports bras were so expensive I don't feel that I can throw them in the dryer so it is a trick to make sure I have a dry one at all times. I wear them again if I have to but I would rather not.

I'm with the "all the frick'in time" crowd.

cleo that OHP is out of this world!! I am so impressed that you got in there kira and figured something out to work your muscles. I am so sorry about your toe!! You will heal though and be able to get back into SL with out losing anything. Great job!

I'm going with baloney too! I'm so excited!! 160 lb on the dead lifts!! that is only 8 lb away from body weight!! It blows my mind that I am warming up with weights I couldn't lift before!! Are those enough exclamation points for you to get my elation??? You know I have been working my way up again after illness,…

Congratulations! Great NSVs! I love seeing those muscles! Keep up the great work!

gorgeous legs!

Juliemouse, Sexy strong leg!! Sick again last week. Yesterday's workout should have been amazing with all the ice cream I ate (Hagen Daz was on sale and my husband couldn't resist...yes it's his fault!) Dani, I thought the pint was 1 serving? Anyway, I did workout yesterday: Squats: 65 lb Bench: 75lb Row: 60 I don't know…

You should be very proud!! You are awesome!

1 can of salmon with two tablespoons of mayo 1 yellow pepper 4 cocktail tomatoes

Loved the gokaleo.

You are such a good mom!

You absolutely have to swap weights to put on the 45s!!! awesome!

You guys are all amazing! Lifting heavy, losing fat and gaining muscle!! And more people making lifting a family affair! I love it! I did a workout yesterday. It was very hard. I woke up today with a headache and achy all over. I think I now have my husband's version of the flu. Squats: 60lb OHP:60 DL: 125 My son worked…

Thanks Kira. I don't always handle things that well but when I do it really feels great!

I just did a quickie scan over the last few pages. You guys are amazing!! Huge numbers!!! Fish sorry about your injury! Makes me cringe. I love all the ice cream discussion and resulting incredible workouts! I am still just plugging along. Nothing extraordinary to report about me but I do have something exciting to tell…

Kira and Vegas, love the ice cream excuse...I mean..idea! I actually had chocolate ricotta mousse last night and I really enjoyed the workout today! lwoodroff, Congratulations on the 80kg DL!! Almost body weight!!! So very cool! Ges, 122.5 squats!!! Awesome! Squat: 45lb OHP: 50lb DL: 105 Everything was very sore when I…

Get back to lifting 3 days a week Watch form videos again and take this deload as an opportunity to work on form Increase weights when I can No more injuries! Be gentle with the sprained butt. Plan for very little pain because clearly pushing through the pain wasn't working! Enjoy working out!!

How wonderful Vegas! It is so exciting to start a new life!
