meh?

id look into new rules of lifting for women, thats what i started with too. a basic full body lifting program that introduces both compound and accessory lifts, a perfect read and start for beginners. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/102-new-rules-of-lifting-for-women-nrol4w

^ this. ^ and this.

really?! 1. youre 27. youre an adult and entitled for your own decision, you need your mums approval for nothing 2. its your body, no one elses. again, you do whatever you feel like is best for it/you 3. your profile reads 'It's all about how YOU feel inside, not what everyone else says....!!!' so... really?!

im *always* having sweet snacks right before bed. i pre-plan my days, and since i know my body always craves a little after dinner treat, thats how i calculate things. different methods work for different people. if you tend to be more hungry/crave majority of your calories the afternoon or evening, why not even look into…

jamiek917 all the way!

thanks for introducing her to me. her blog is simply amazing.

love it! i definitely will continue to lift when i get pregnant with my second one :)

eve 12-18 aug the booyah diet: my water intake was good this week, per usual. and thats about the only positive thing i can bring up. exercise: lifting went alright, my strength is improving with each session. self image: got compliments on my biceps from my mate while pulling my hair up in a pony tail. he also is into…

better late than never. hello. Name: eve Date: august Height: 167cm Weight: 62kg S - [Specific] M - [Measurable] A - [Attainable] R - [Relevant] T - [Time Oriented] S - breaking this goddamn plateau of 4 months! not necessarily scale-weight wise, but measurements and/or body fat % wise. and i have no interest in gainage,…

very rough, emotionally unstable and mentally draining week behind. eve 5-11 august the booyah: diet: hit my minimum protein (90g) every day, over 100g 6days. have had a couple of drinks (low alcohol wine) but no madness, which is amazing, considering the state i was in all week. exercise: new pr on 8reps of squat. the…

name: eve date: 01-31 july height: 167 cm starting weight: 61kg ending weight: 62kg bf: 26.1% S - at least 100g protein daily and being strict(er) on crappy carbs (im a carbaholic) success with protein. not really on carbs. M - lower body fat % (plateauing for 2-3 months now, so its not as easy for me as it might seem!) no…

eve 22-28 july booyah diet: if we decided to delete thursday and sunday evening from history, i had the perfect week. exercise: im at a stage in my program where ive gotta do more reps hence using lower weights and boy doesnt it challenge me! a week long doms here, no exaggeration. lifted 3x and jogged 1x so stuck to my…

was on holiday - the excuse of crap eating and beyond. july 15-21 eve the booyah: diet: at least tried to make healthy choices and logged everything apart from one day. exercise: active rest week, been walking around a lot, sightseeing, hiking, mainly uphill with my daughter sitting on my shoulders/neck. self-image: went…

beast machinery week is behind me. rest week and a holiday by the sea side is ahead of me. here goes. july 08-14 eve the booyah: diet: no full blown and/or pre-planned binge. was tempted a few times, but stopped myself. even had a mini bbq today and didnt drink or gone over! was over my protein limit every single day too -…

Yes! It meant to read the following. HOW TO:

eve 1st - 7th july the booyah: diet: upped my calories back up to a reasonable level and im happier already so is my body! for some reason my stomach seems fuller but flatter if it makes sense - no belly pooch hanging under the starved hollow stomach. cant really explain?! fitness: even though it supposed to be my rest…

name: eve date: 06/07 height: 167cm weight: 61kg bf: 26.1 % S - at least 100g protein daily and being strict(er) on crappy carbs (im a carbaholic) M - lower body fat % (plateauing for 2-3 months now, so its not as easy for me as it might seem!) A - no binges (bit over - alright. full blown `im a little over, i can eat all…

i had very similar thoughts about the subject to be honest, but im only halfway through stage4 just yet so it gives me a little more time to figure how to continue after im done with the program.

what stage are you on right now? i had the same issue at the beginning but when these planks and lateral flexions started to come in the picture all my worries have disappeared. i just do more seconds or reps (10-15 instead of 6 or 8) if i know i have energy to push them out. can also try and work yourself up to do a pike…

i kind of try and roll back to the starting position and step off of it with one leg, find my balance with it on the floor and step off with the other one. that, in theory. but im on stage4 and mainly still just falling off like a potato sack and laughing at myself each time. (i workout at home luckily)

id suggest you to rather focus on body fat loss, than scale weight. (with that said, many of us, including me can relate and want to lose scale weight too) 10% bf loss (minus weight as well) in just 7weeks is tremendous! to be perfectly honest, i would keep up with whatever you are doing now until you achieve a comfortable…

haha funnily enough we are trying for the second little one. maybe when/if it happens i make more effort of looking after the girls while they are in the process of shrinking, but to be perfectly honest they looked alright post-pregnancy. its definitely the crash dieting that done them in. thanks for the input ladies. just…

wonder creams are not something i believe in, but i might have to look into them. thanks :)

sorry ladies for just popping in, not interacting much on this topic and still expecting some help, but here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1021245-boobs any feedback would me much much muuuch appreciated!

i do use gloves and they work like magic on my hands. i wasnt too bothered about the look of my callouses the main issue was the pain they came with! im using these babies and they proved to be perfect for me (shame that they didnt have the leopard print in my size)…

wow wow, no, you can _not_ start lifting whille pregnant! if you were a lifter already and got pregnant thats a different story but wait with starting it after you had your bubba! and dont forget, you can not out-exercise a bad diet. but you do have 5+ months to research and work on that :) good luck and congratulation on…

you can use your squatracks catchers being dropped at the very bottom?

halo stage4. so is anyone here using a barbell for step ups and lunges rather than dumbbels? and if so, is the bb split squat sort of similar to the elevated lunge? (apart from the step of course) im using a total of 25kg ~ 55lbs (12.5kg in each hand) for both and my grip and balance is terrible. i feel like im working my…
