Another vote for Bret Contreras, squats and hip thrusts. Lunges are pretty helpful as well.

I am in the middle of reading "The Red Queen: Sex and the evolution of human nature". It is extremely interesting especially the arguments whether females across nature prefer the sexy mate or the good husband when choosing who to breed with.

Knife Party were incredible at the Future Music Festival this year. I am a huge Example fan. Can't wait for his new album this year.

Great personal atory. Thank you for sharing. Your shoulders and arms look freakin awesome too!

This. Nice work lads.

I am pretty week in comparison to many here especially as I have been doing it for a while, but I am a bit flaky when it comes to workouts and it varies from 1 to 3 workouts per week. I spend lots of time deloading to work on form rather than focusing on maxing out numbers to progress. My PR's are: Back Squat 90kg Romanian…

Are you doing a particular routine? I found that by doing the Strong Curves workout I was activating all of my glute muscles, which lead to better form and the ability to lift heavier amounts on my back squat.

That's my theme song as well :flowerforyou:

Do some barbell hip thrusts instead of squats. No rack required and is a good compound lift.

Happy loggiversary. You look great!

Well my body looks much younger, though sometimes I wonder about my face as it is a lot more angular rather than wrinklier.

Another vote for it being a foolish idea.

What they said.

42 here and always happy to give support to others.

I would do both. Hip Thrusts and barbell glute bridges are great lifts and really target the glut muscles.

One of my forearms is quite veiny and it is very obvious after a workout or if I am dehydrated. I don't really love it, but figure it is a small price to pay for being muscular.

Off topic, 5 years ago the interwebs where excited about peak oil, but then tight seam gas came along and the excitement about peak oil petered out. It is a finite resource really so of course it is going to go up and up until we reach tipping point.

Does the shoe need to be brown, or will black make an adequate substitute.

Sometimes there is accidental staring, sometimes to check out other people's form, sometimes because the other person's routine is unusual. None of it is done in a judgemental way. MFP has taught me that other gym users get upset if you start talking to them so I just keep my distance. Don't over think it.

Another vote for checking out Bret and adding Hip Thrusts to your lifting routine.

Is it deadlift's that are so offensive OP. Where do you stand on girl wearing tight pants doing hip thrusts?

Sunscreen.

So you are wearing your new see through white top to work, which is in a food store. What if it gets stained?

Is it meant to be see through?

Agreed. I am quite keen to see it as well. Let us know when it arrives

How exciting. Nothing beats the thrill of tracking parcels.

My thoughts exactly.

I still can't do a pull up/chin up and it makes me sad.

My brain and personality are pretty awesome despite being decidedly quirky. At the moment I am feeling a lot of affection for my glute muscles.
