Look into Stronglifts or Starting Strength.

It means you wash your food before you eat it.

If they decide to wait then they can wait. You offered to let them work in. Personally I dont rush my workouts for people. I want to make sure that I get it in the proper way and rushing usually hurts me. That includes taking any where between 3-5 mins between each set now that I am lifting heavy enough for me to warrant…

I hated rows until I started doing pendalay rows. I had started off doing regular barbell rows and just didnt like them. I still didnt like the pendalay till I got to 135 plus. I think it was mainly the height issue that I had it way too low and it was affecting form and how far I had to go. So I can imagine why you ladies…

Yea wasn't sure. Thought I put it in there but I was eating 2500-2600 calories a day. My TDEE was 2985 then. But it's since gone up to 3459 now since I am way more active than I was so I'm trying to get 2800 - 2900 calories in. A lot harder to do healthy than at fast food lol.

It was really hard to wrap my head around the fact that I was eating the exact same way that some 600 lb people were eating. Thank god the thought of getting to that point makes me sick and gives me a lot of motivation to keep going when I don't want to be.

I have had some crazy exs that no matter how little I talked to them they would not give up. I highly doubt that he's trying to string her along. Some people just get too obsessed. Can't you get a restraining order to keep her from calling and texting? I don't know the answer to this you may have already tried. Sorry this…

Im assuming you're asking how I got fat basically. Probably 4000- 6000 calories. That was probably the average. Im sure I went over that some days. All I ever ate was fast food and at the minimum ordered 2 meals sometimes 3. Did this 2 -3 times a day. Or a pizza and a 2 liter of dr pepper. I ate like complete crap and not…

Never heard that one. Awesome job on the lifts. Great thing about failing at 4 reps is that you're very likely to get them the next time.I'm sure you will too. Update on the eating situation. Downed 80 ozs of water and now I'm starving. So cooking a boatload of fish and veggies. It cannot get done fast enough. Ready to…

Heard this plenty of times. But not until they were in some serious hot water.

Thank you. Get it done!

Got rid of the ex. Cleared up some of the problems. Unfortunately for me it's genetic and not caused by outside factors, So still have to be on the meds probably for good.

Ugh! Trying to eat again today and almost gagging when I do . I may have figured out the problem though, I am on lithium and a couple other things. But mainly with the lithium I need to be drinking a lot more than the average amount of water. I realized today that a couple days ago I ran out of bottled water. I tend to…

Looks like everything out there right now. Much rather wait for this http://www.indiegogo.com/amiigo

Great Job! I totally felt it the last time I had to goto another gym. My whole workout was horrible couldn't wait to get out of there. Was so happy when I got back that I busted it out like nobody's business.

He is but I kinda think its from gravity because you notice his back is pretty straight till he starts going up. I think it'd be had to keep your back completely straight at 390 pounds. I know it should be relative to how much muscle you have. Plus I think thats about 90 percent of his max bound to be some breakdown.

Seems like you might be curving your back in a little too much which i believe causes that. keep you back straight and that should keep your hips down. Also youre still a few inches from hitting parallel. You want have the top of your hips aligned with your knees. You're almost there though just a little lower. I'm not…

I would do it. It is so much safer. You dont want to be stuck under that bar after you just failed a rep. That said I think most of the people that are dying are lifting fairly heavy weights. But I haven't done any research yet. I do my benches at the gym without a spotter right now but theyre still fairly easy and I dont…

From what ive seen the years from 85 to 88 are pretty crappy anyways so meh.

You ladies are always so helpful. That's why I love ya! :flowerforyou:

Ah yea I thought you were referring to you wanting to drink shakes and stuff at those places lol. I do drink 2 protein shakes a day which totals to about 1000 calories and 104 grams of protein a day. I haven't gotten into the habit of adding stuff into them yet but I really need to. Also that was with skim milk. Switching…

I wouldn't down them at all if anything maybe consider upping them. However, since you're pretty short and don't weigh very much 1500 calories seems about right. Have you calculated your TDEE and BMR if you havent you should check out this link. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/912914-in-place-of-a-road-map-3-2013…

Sorry for the double post it was just easier to quote this way. The ball sounds like a good idea if I can keep myself from falling off of it. Yea, I do static stretching before I lift. Played a lot of sports in High School so used to those. Being fat was a recent development for me. Had a 6 pack till I was 25. Then I got…

I really believe in calories being calories. But I have heard somethings about not drinking your calories. I think those were more in reference to soda though. I personally get the Large mango smoothie which that alone is about 600 calories. So you need to be really careful when you do have them. Also, love jamba juice.…

Yea water towel and maybe some headphones for working out after if they dont have you work out on the spot. I'd also like to know what gym too. So I could possibly stalk you. ( yes, that's a joke)

I ate 3000 calories at jack in the box last night. Yes, it was intentional. Still within my calorie limits. But you need to be informed on what you're going to eat before you get there. Some of the things can be deceptively high.

Yup, Love those ladies. They're awesome.
