Yes, both are good... I def looked better than when I started my journey but I am way more solid now... I prefer to have muscle so the second picture appeals to me more. Thanks tho, I know what you are trying to say. :)

Thank you. :) I have lost over 90 lbs in the last few years and was around 150 lbs in the first pic and just over 160 lbs in the second.

The right picture is the after in which I am heavier. I have lost over 90 lbs in the last few years and started lifting heavy last April. I didn't realize I wasn't suppose to post pictures if I look good... I can get some fat pictures if you want. *shrug*

Thank you! I posted it in the success stories section but the responses weren't so kind. After chasing the scale for so long it really is hard to see it go up but visuals are a great way to remind myself to keep on keepin' on. :happy:

I have been feeling quite down since stepping on the damn scale the other day as it keeps climbing up. I found a picture of myself from last April and made a comparison shot from today where I am roughly 10 lbs heavier. Here's the difference: My lower body is my area of contention especially my upper thighs as I have a lot…

Hi everyone, I'm a newb and loosely followed the program last night to see how it would feel focusing on strictly these exercises. This is what I did... Squat: bar x 10 x 3 95 x 5 x 2 115 x 5 x 2 135 x 5 x 2 155 x 5 x 2 185 x 1 Bench: bar x 10 x 3 95 x 5 x 3 115 x 5 x 3 135 x 1 x 2 Rows: 65 x 10 x 3 75 x 5 x 3 80 x 5 x 3…

Thank you everyone. :) This is what I did last night.... I didn't follow the program but was just trying to get a feel for focusing strictly on these exercises and playing around with the weights. Squat: bar x 10 x 3 95 x 5 x 2 115 x 5 x 2 135 x 5 x 2 155 x 5 x 2 185 x 1 Bench: bar x 10 x 3 95 x 5 x 3 115 x 5 x 3 135 x 1 x…

Hi! 185 squat 125 bench 205 dead haven't done an ohp in a lonnnnnng time so I'm not sure on that one I've just started focusing more on these moves the last month and I feel my form is ok... I don't have anyone to show me but I watch a **** tonne of videos.

I eat 2000 calories a day on my training days and 1800 on my rest days and I continue to lose body fat. That doesn't equate to much weight though (I've lost over 90 lbs thus far) but I would rather lose inches anyways... body composition is more important to me. :) Just for reference, I'm 5'4, 154 lbs and wear a size 6 in…

5'4 150-155 lbs jeans 27/28 waist clothing 6/8

before: 235-240 lbs after: 150 lbs :)

oops

Thank you for your advice! I wasn't expecting any results (scale wise) for awhile and I am okay with gaining. I finally understand that I was over training and not fuelling my body appropriately... I have actually known this for awhile but was just too scared to do what I needed to do out of fear. I have let that fear go…

thank you :)

Thank you everyone... I have a long ways to go but progress is exciting! :heart:

Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. :)

ahhhhhh! I didn't think about cropping the image... sorry, I hope it doesn't offend anyone!

Thank you for helping me!! :) Good to hear... sometimes I think I imagine things! lol

Thank you everyone! I just started this weight routine as I was off for some time since having surgery. Prior to that I did a full body weight routine for 3 months. I am not training for anything besides I love to do it and I want to keep improving my health and body. Ultimately though, I want to lose fat at this point. I…

Thank you for your reply. :) I am going to give it a try and see what happens.

I have a Polar and love it... it was just over $100
