You ROCK!!!!!! So proud of you!! Thanks for inspiring us all!

Read it yesterday and loved it... Long, but I have had the same opinion since I have experienced both.

I'm 5'2 and my initial goal weight was 140lbs... Then it was 136-134 to132-130... My body has settled at 129-128 and I'm very happy with that. I never imagined in my lifetime being 128, BUT my mother who's about 5'0-5'1 has been 125lbs her entire adult life (minus pregnancies) so I guess it makes sense that I settled at…

Great analogy with the pool!! Love it!!

That's its right there!!! Trial and error to find that sweet spot!!

I lift 4x's a week (3 days of heavy compound work, 1 day of barbell complex work) and Body Combat (or HIIT sprints) 2x's a week.

Love at first rep... :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

My Pre workout! Love, love, love!

I started with dumbbells to build my strength. I think that may be a good place to start. Good luck. We all start somewhere!!

I do 2 warmup sets at 50% and 75% of what my 5x5 lifts are... Sometimes (rarely) I do 5 minutes of cardio just to get the blood flowing especially if the gym is freezing. Good luck! Grrrrrrrr!!!!!

You ROCK sis!!! Very impressive results!!!

Incredible and inspiring!!! Congrats coach!!!

Took the words right outta my mouth!!!

WOW!!!! You look AMAZING!!! Great work!

So sorry for your lost. You made some great progress... Stay connected!

I have been doing SL since April and have seen gains in both strength and muscle which was my ultimate goal. I have been questioning myself as to how long I was going to do the program. I LOVE it and feel I can do it until infinity, but I know my body will get immune to it and the gains will decline. Note - I have had a…

Still going STRONG (pun intended) with SL... I can't believe I started back in April! I have set some srength goals to get me through the rest of the year: Bench: 100 Dead: 200 OHP: 95 UA Pullups: 5 I've made some great progress and I'm ready to push to the next level on the above lifts! Other than the deadlift munchies…

Incredible! Congrats!

Amazing!!! Love it!!!

Sorry to hear about your experience with SL. I personally LOVE it... Started round 2 yesterday after completing 12 weeks with great results... I'm going to do 6 wks this time adding finishers and a 4th day of touch up work and because I love to lift! I will say the results are not what many are looking for - I gained…

Free weights all day... because I can't do strong lifts on machines....

Wow! AMAZING transformation!!! WOW!!!

Incredible!!! You look so happy!!! Congrats!!

I look forward to birthday celebrations... Because of the cake!! I do understand where you are coming from though, however I would handle this very delicately because you don't want to turn off your family and lose their support in your journey. Advance notice of your preference would be nice or just have a sliver of cake…

Anything that requires me to follow dance choreography (i.e. Body Jam, Zumba...) I just rather free style it!
