  • My Q1 2014 targets - 1. Stop being a ***** and start using the 'big boys' area of the gym more, rather than the matts in the corner with the restricted set of equipment. 2. Stop being a ***** and use the pull up machine. Even though it is really high up and I'm scared of heights and looking foolish. 3. Stop being a *****…
  • Very interesting and well illustrated article.
  • I was going to like it till I saw SS's boxers... :p
  • Now i'm gonna have to watch Fight Club again. Oh the burdens i have to bear being a member of this group......
  • Your legs look fine to me sir! Understand your concern though as I too have a herniated disk, plus drop foot which affects my balance so have neglected my lower body, compounded by being apple shaped with skinny legs naturally. However last few weeks got my courage up and started to focus on legs / butt more and am pleased…
  • Bump, that's my Sunday afternoon sorted :)
  • Thanks for posting, liking the look of the zercher and will give it a try. I'm currently on goblet squats which seem to be fine for my mashed disc.
  • Bump to save here too. I 'started' with reading http://www.builtlean.com/ it IS selling a product, and cannot say all info is 100% current thinking, but found a lot of accessible articles which were a good foundation to go on to further research. May help someone.
  • I can relate to this tragic experience... Thought I'd just have a small baked potato with cheese and butter for my dinner tonight after a bit of a glut yesterday. Decided to be conciencoius for once, so weighed the teeny potato, miniscule glob of butter and sliver of cheese. 467 calorie total! :sad:
  • Oh good question, tagging this one. I have a herniated disk so similarly daren't risk any load through my spine. At the moment I use the glute machine, leg press (type where your body is at around 35 degrees rather horizontal), and the imaginatively entitled 'lower back' machine. Also do squats and step ups without weights…
  • You should create posts about all inconsequential and irrelevant events in your life on global forums for starters.
  • As I normally take it with my protein shake I occasionally forget on non-workout days, but do try to remember to take it, same dose each day.
  • Hi Mandeenicoleb, pleased to hear it's working out well for you :drinker: sorry for the delayed response. I'm still in a (seemingly eternal...) calorie deficit trying to rid myself of my spare tyre, so didn't expect a big benefit from the Creatine, but hoped a small edge would help me and then see more benefit when I can…
  • mandeenicoleb - Will look forward to hearing how things go with you too - always good to compare notes. Sarauk2sf - that's reassuring, will see on Monday which is my 'proper' weigh in day what the damage is... (don't normally weigh myself daily, but was curious having read about the potential water gain).
  • This is a timely post for me so am tagging - just started taking creatine on 12/08/2013, have gained on the scale considerably in just the four days... eek! Repeat mantra to self... ' forget the scale it's BF% and waist inches that matter'. Will report back over the next few weeks how things go....
