  • Sweet baby Jesus. A lot of le suck sounds about right!
  • Thanks for clearing that up! I spent a good two hours last night reading up on it. I am just wrapping up my first year of weight training so I'm still in the dark about many things. Very interesting!
  • I had never heard of the term "barbell complexes". Had to google away for a bit! Learn something new every day. :) ETA- Is this the same as "super sets"?
  • Nope! But, I don't consume much sugar as it is outside of the occasional piece of fruit- more of a taste preference, not for health.
  • Damn chick! GREAT PROGRESS!!!
  • Last official bulk week! Sad face! Somehow I lost weight this week- clocked in at 135. Not sure what that's about, but I keep on trucking! I wasn't able to bust through my bench yet, so that's my big focus this week. I did however knock my Squat and Row up by 5lbs each! Yahoo! My only whine this week is that my legs have…
  • Weighed in at 136 this morning. Had a good week and even got out for a few runs. This week I'm really focusing on knocking my bench up a little more before my bulk is over. Fingers crossed for 95!
  • 3-4x week depending on my schedule. I'm still a newb (been lifting since Spring of 13) so I am rocking the big compound lifts each sesh.
  • Hollllla! Good gains, girl!
  • Duuuuuuuuuuude, Jo...:love: You're doing great!!
  • Late to journal this week! I have my folks in town visiting and haven't had a chance to update. I decided to continue my bulk after I dropped some of that water weight and have been trucking right along this week. I'm now at 135.4 but I cut down to 135 the week before so I'm on track. I upped my squat and my OHP by another…
  • OMG, hahaha. Best GIF ever! Also, agreed. EAT ALL THE FOODS.
  • Uhhhh…****. I don't know what's going on. Calories haven't changed, still tracking just as carefully. I did add two runs this week to my normal lifting schedule. Otherwise, no change there. Somehow, I am at 139 this morning. Last week I just assumed it was water bloat. The calories aren't adding up to the massive gain I've…
  • I blew up this week! Got up to 137 yesterday and now down to 135.8 as of this morning. I added 100 extra calories until Wednesday and then jumped ship and dropped it back down to what I was eating last week after the jump. Just water weight but holy crap. I couldn't button my jeans! LOL So much for the more food! Yesterday…
  • I'm currently pregnant with food triplets. I blame almond butter. :)
  • You're doing great so far!
  • Congrats on the bench! And hurray foooooood! :)
  • Your bench :love: Doing badass!
  • I just downloaded it on iTunes and skimmed through it. I was considering jumping to the Advanced Gluteal Goddess workout after I finish up my current program but I'm still debating it. I admit that I just flipped through the book for 1/2 hour- I didn't sit down and read it cover to cover yet. With that said, my biggest…
  • 4 kiddos! Kudos, mama! Hope you reserved yourself a glass of wine in your cals for when daddy got home! ;) So glad to hear you're feeling better. That's all that matters in the end! Congrats on exceeding your bulk goal!
  • Your progress is looking great! Fantastic job so far!! Hope you feel better soon! :flowerforyou:
  • Damn, dude! I was laid off from my job as well back when I was going through my D. It was honestly a relief for me as well! You've been given a wonderful opportunity to take a step back and care for yourself during this time. Good for you for seeing the light shine through during this tough transition. Keep it up girl!!…
  • Scale moved back down to 130.2 all week but as of this morning with TOM starting, at 132.4. I'm going to let the bloat pass for a few days and then up my cals and extra 100 to get things moving again. YAY, MORE FOOD!! I've officially decided I will stick out the bulk until March 1st as I had originally planned and then…
  • Right there with you! I ALSO supplemented with beer last night, LOL!:drinker:
  • As of this morning i'm at 131.4. Hard to gauge how much of that is water from yesterday- as I was at 130.2 all week. Either way, I'll take it! Up & down we go. Had a super intense extra workout yesterday because I had a nice wave of energy going and wanted to hit the glutes hard! I am paying for that one. Hobbling along…
  • :love: :love: :love: :love:
  • DIED LOLing! :laugh: Thanks chicks!!
  • Look how far you have already come... You walked out on to the ledge and said "I'M JUMPING! DEAL WITH IT!" and here you are 10 weeks later into your bulk. I saw this cute quote on Pinterest that said "If you don't take care of your body, where are you going to live?". Be gentle with yourself. If it's too much, it's too…
  • GIRL! Story of my LIFE!!! Whine all you want. All gains to the belly here too. Had you posted this a few days ago, I would have jumped on that de-fluff train with you, NO LIE. I too look at pictures of others in their bulk and compare and I say "What in the actual ****"... I'm sure you can figure out that blurred word is.…
