Hello from windy Lancashire!! :)

Feel free to add me! :) I've been doing strength training for over a year and next month I'll take part in my first power lifting meet!

I'd most certainly eat them all!! MMM!

So... I've entered a power-lifting competition so I've been deloading and working my way back up to the higher weights. I've worked my way up to .. Squat - 75kg 5x5 Bench - 50kg 3x5 Dead-lift - 102.5kg 1x5 Doing squats 5x5 is now getting real tiring!!! :(

It has to be real butter!! No plastic tasting chemical like margarine

I'm 21 :) add me if you want!

What an amazing transformation!!! Well done!!

I'm from the North West :) Feel free to add me!

Keep up the great work!!

My goals for this month are: Squat: 160lb Deadlift: 200lb - I've done this at 1RM but i want 3/5 sets :) OHP: 71lbs Bench: 88lbs Rows: 90lbs Here's hoping!

There is only 1 power rack and one smith machine in my gym, it's classed as a 'fitness center' and has about 30 treadmills and ellipticals so sometimes I have to wait but very rarely. Everyone sits in front of the mirrors doing biceps! :D

The depo injection made me crazy!! I only had one shot last October and that was enough, I did not want any more. Although people say it does not make you gain weight, i didn't change anything with my diet and exercise regime and i gained 7lbs outta nowhere. Everyone is different and it will affect everyone differently. I…

Everybody looks great!! So motivating! Lifting weights is so awesome :D:happy:

Thanks for you well thought out and informational reply!

Canada has banned raw milk!?! that's crazy.

Raw milk all the way!

Hi, anyone can feel free to add me :) my diary is open to friends. I tend to eat about 1900 calories a day.

Anyone feel free to add me, Im only 20 minutes away from Manchester :)

Just got back from today's workout, and hmm.. According to my brother my squat form isn't up to scratch, so I only did 1 set at 110lbs and de loaded to practice on form, I seem to have a problem with my knees, so that's another thing to think about, woo! hahah However, my bench was fine, managed to to all five sets at…

No, I haven't, but thanks I'll check it out now :D

I'm waiting for the android app! Apparently it's in progress, but it can't come fast enough for me lol

Yes, Rippetoe is good for that! I've only ever seen this from Mehdi, http://stronglifts.com/strength-training-for-women/ But maybe I should apply for the inner circle huh!!

Yeah, I can only do the bar with two 1.25kg plates on, I did actually 55lbs, but I only managed one set and decided to deload. That sounds similar to my press, I was doing 66lb for atleast 4 workouts before i finally managed to complete the 5 sets. It's confusing with the whole kg and lbs, I suppose it's the country…

I'm pretty new here :) But today I felt great squatting 47.5kg, or 100lbs (i think) , on Friday it will be 50kg :D Is it weird to actually fear the weights, because when it's on my back I'm like whoa 'am I going to be able to get back up!'. I'm also dead-lifting body weight so I'm happy with that. I'm sooooo weak in my…

Thanks everybody! I'm glad to see a group for women, Mehdi hardly ever mentions us really!!

I'm just starting out on the eating more, so please, count me in! :)
