  • I use a power block also :) I find that I have the hardest time with shoulder exercises. With lower body I cap off at 25 lbs each side because otherwise my quads get too big. I'm trying to find the happy medium where I reach failure but don't have Arnold Schwarzenegger legs. Last time I did CE I was doing about 40 lbs each…

The only place I have to shop locally is Wal Mart and all of the protein powders I have found on their shelves contain creatine, which I am trying to avoid since I'm still nursing my…
  • LOVE your avi! I'm a mom of 3 (8, 4 and 1)but am contemplating number 4 and 5 in the future :)
  • Hi there! I'm in a similar situation as you: 28, 5'4 and 131 lbs! :) I just started 3 days ago also. I'm looking to lose the last 15 pounds I've gained over the past year.
