Read New Rules of Lifting for Women. Read everything you can find by Julia Ladewski.

+1, eat more protein. Every day.

Get over it and eat meat.

SMH...time to train the trainers OP: Read as much as you can from Julia Ladewski. She's amazing. Mother of three, 5'3 120 or so, strong as hell, very good at teaching women how to lift to be strong and sexy, not skinnyfat or bulky.

It depends on your goals and your current state.

Stop being a vegetarian. Hey, you asked for the BEST way...

Total calories is most important. Substitute meat for fruit.

They make the same muscles work in different ways.

None, the pasteurization process breaks down the whey isolates, rendering them useless.

You said that last time! How many times to I have to tell you Reece's Cups are straight Glutamine, brah.

If AM: 30g Whey Iso, 30g Whey Hydro, 10g Casein Hydro, 5g Creatine, 6g Leucine, over-ripe banana. If PM: Same as above + froyo w/ Reece's cups and hot fudge or large DQ Blizzard with extra Reece's cups.

DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZ NUTZ oh, wait, it's not 1999 anymore, sorry. Butter

Most colleges have a Bod Pod. You sit in an egg-shaped pod and it determines your body fat. The professors and graduate students generally love to test people.

5'7 185 in my profile pic. Same day as bod pod test 12%.

Other than my entire body being covered by a purple, blistery, insanely itchy rash that keeps me from sleeping, I don't have any reason to avoid gluten. I lost about 15 lbs when I cut it out. Mostly water. Then I started training and my weight went way down, then way up, then way down, then way up, then way down. I was 192…

I think the January meet needs a new thread

My first stop is usually the bathroom. If not on the way in, before I lift anything heavy. I don't see it as a problem. The body wants to get rid of stuff before operating under stress. Probably a good thing.

Is it Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, or one of the Wicked Directional Witches that decides if you magically turn into one of those people who joins a gym and then never goes? You get to decide if that "happens to you" or not.

The question is are you sore or are you hurt? If you're just sore and you're new, you do not need to wait to work out again. It's the new normal and your body will adjust. Assuming that you are following a decent program, not just doing some random stuff to failure and making yourself sore for no planned purpose. When you…

I did for a few months, usually a Crossfit WOD or something. I don't think I got much out of it. I make a finisher out of something more targeted these days and I get a lot more benefit from that. For example, my finisher today was to take CG bench to failure at < 3 reps at the end of shoulder/triceps day.

Yes, you need to tell your body that this is the new normal. The soreness is a response to something the body is not used to.

BF'ing = Breast Feeding (that probably isn't one you meant, though) :) Dead Lift Overhead Press Push Press Push Up Pull Up Dumbbell Rows And if exercise is making a woman produce less milk, I bet it's because she isn't drinking enough water. She's sweating out what should be going into milk. I am not a doctor, so I don't…

I recommend lifting heavier, unless it's a whole lot of paper.

^^^ This looks like a running bag. My gym bag has: 10MM lever belt - no more bruising my ribs bag of chalk - grip FAT GRIPZ - makes everything harder wrist wraps - makes CG bench hurt less lifting straps - allows for overload on heavy pulling log book - document success and opportunities to improve Gold Bond - obvious…

I have a 1-yo and my wife is still BF'ing. The awesomeness does get into the breastmilk, so you definitely want to do heavy squats, bench, DL, OHP, PP, PU, PU, and DB rows.

Are you Celiac, allergic, or just GF for fun?

Dragon Flag - Watch Rocky IV Search for it on YouTube, too. You raise and lower your entire body hinging at the upper back. It is very hard.

ab wheel, dragon flag, table pushbacks And heavy squats, deadlifts, and weighted chinups.
