Well hello you!!!!! How you doin??!?!!!??!!!

GOMAD!!!! Gallon Of Milk A Day....... you'll be a cow in no time...... no pun intended........

OP - I found someone you can help!!!!! http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10316009/how-do-i-motivate-myself-to-go-to-the-gym#latest

He must be too busy inspiring others to get back to us MFP'ers who could use some inspiring.....

Gaining muscle comes from adequate protein intake, heavy-progressive loaded training, a small calorie surplus, and TIME. So some questions...... 1. Stats? - Height & Weight 2. Protein intake 3. Calories per day 4. Lifting regimen?

I want to bulk up and get swole too! How many protein shakes should I have a day? Everyone is always telling me I need to get protein in right after my workout but I was curious what you thought? Thanks!

I love when people puts their weights back!

To the OP. What @sjohnson__1 and @Wheelhouse15 have shared is spot on. Also, women don't build muscle nearly as efficiently as males. Because hormones and all that science stuff and what not.

Wait wait wait.......there is no way you had good nutrition if you were eating pop-tarts and ice cream daily! There is also no wayyyy you were able to stay in a caloric deficit by eating those type of foods either............... :trollface:

This. In the grand scheme of things if you have a well balanced diet there are no needs for protein shakes unless you're needing it for a "convenience" factor.

I eat food. Food is good.

I agree with this.

All I know is that it doesn't bring the boys to the yard.....

Q. If it’s not overeating, then what is the underlying cause of obesity? A. It’s the low fat, very high carbohydrate diet that we’ve been eating for the last 40 years, which raises levels of the hormone insulin and programs fat cells to go into calorie storage overdrive. I like to think of insulin as the ultimate fat cell…

I use an app called "Multi-Year weight Training" it's only for the iPhone though. Fully customizable it was $5 and worth every penny!

I didn't see it mentioned so here is my recommendation. (I trained for a half-marathon two years ago and here's what I did.) Find some lifts that will compliment or enhance your running. I found that strength based programs were counter productive when it came to improving my endurance for running as it added to the…

Awesome! Is that your basement??? Either way, I want a dedicated weight room like that IN MY HOUSE!!!! :+1:

I did not consent to be put in a YouTube video spammed on MFP........... :tongue:

You're doing it wrong............

I thought this was the "1000 POST club......." dang........guess I gotta keep lifting instead of typing to be apart of this group....... :trollface:

It seems my commercial gym has shifted it's focus away from 1-on-1 training to "Team-Training" the majority of the classes are in the evening hours. I go to the gym at the wee hours of the morning 4am. Also in my small town a new "box gym" has opened up......it's not a Cross Fit gym but it's all centered around the "team…
