^^^ so much this.^^^ i cannot recommend yoga enough. it's one of my favourite things in life. fantastic for your core and posture too as it happens.

I am always in a tank top at the gym, mostly because they fit in all the right places and don't flap about when i'm doing a lot of the floor work, they're not restrictive on my arms which REALLY bugs me to the point of being uncomfortable in anything with a sleeve longer than capped. Tanks/vests are also lower cut so the…

I'm friends with most of my ex-boyfriends, mostly because it would be awkward not to because we have so many friends in common and go to all the same places, it's just easier to try and still get along. one is still a very good friend and my current gym buddy.

^^ this.^^ pretty much all of my close friends are men, the other girl and i are that in this group get treated like one of them, so much so they don't consider us 'girls' though.

tea is the best thing in the world. I like what the rest of the world calls English breakfast tea, with almond milk and one sugar. tea is perfect at all times. particularly in times of crisis or stress. if you hadn't guessed I'm British. :laugh:

Chris Evans. mostly as Captain America but he's pretty in general too.

^^ this. also this image is awesome^^

I wonder what i should wear tonight?

my favourite shows: the Volbeat one i saw a couple of months ago in Denmark, we got a super-long set and the atmosphere was incredible. other favourite shows include: KISS, Rammstein, Patrick Wolf and Frank Turner. the first two have such theatre in their sets, Patrick wolf is such an incredible, multi-instrument playing,…

chicken, cheese and fish are mine

I couldn't deal with it very well, music is one my main passions and i get a bit obsessive about it. my music tastes are very very eclectic and whilst I love Rock and Metal most of all- favourite band is currently Volbeat, I will listen to anything and so long as i can understand the lyrics it generally gets a thumbs up…

managing to complete 3 sets of full push ups this week, and also not face-planting during chaturanga today which i always used to do. so happy!

yes. I never decline a friend request. :smile:

I know how you feel, it's weird isn't it! whilst i've never been very big, i don't feel small in my head yet. I caught sight of myself in the mirror during a class and nearly fell over- i couldn't believe that the reflection staring back at me was mine ( i was balancing on one leg at the time) I hold up these clothes i can…

pretty much every excuse i can find. i'm buying more workout clothes...i think i own more workout gear than 'real clothes' ! i figure i spend so much time wearing them i ought to have nice, and having just started hot yoga, that's made me buy more this week!

to look good in clothes i want to wear and also to look good naked. to be more confident in myself as well.

my NSV this week is managing a set of 10 full push ups. got to say i was happy with that. :happy:

I love that it's small, all the trainers (particularly mine) are friendly and very helpful, great range of equipment, lovely sense of community and they frequently post a circuit of the day for people who haven't decided what they want to do. great range of classes too. it's my 'safe place' -somewhere i can go when i hate…

me too. yoga pants for every workout regardless of whether it involves yoga or not. mostly it does though. :smile:

at least there was the use of equipment involved! I manage to embarrass myself at the gym frequently- mostly by tripping over my own feet, faceplanting after failing a bodyweight rep, or something like that. well done on giving it another go, I've never used the smith machine myself. I much prefer a free bar on my back!

I know how you feel, I am small to medium sized frame but only 5"3'. here in the UK i wear sizes 6 and 8 which are generally the smallest the majority of shops stock. I see a lot of women with really tiny frames and think that they are far smaller than me, There are a great amount of women who are significantly larger than…

I agree with pretty much everything else that has been posted on this thread so far. I have a great and varied friends list, some of whom have been with me from the beginning and i love them dearly. There are some with whom I interact frequently on here, snapchat,kik and facebook and not hearing from them, sometimes on a…

that is a fantastic piece, the entire soundtrack is pretty awesome!

Metal pretty much all the time, every occasion. i find my favourites for lifting to have to be Pantera, Machine Head, and Rammstein.

would it be any different? lol

yeah, i've done this, nice when they fit better, i find it a decent marker of my hard work. keep up the hard work!

recently single, again *sigh*

saliva- click click boom

fantastic thread OP! :smile: somewhere in stage 4 myself, nowhere near ready for bikini pictures though, that's for sure!
