Yep I can totally relate to this - my mid section is looking a little strange at the moment

I love the little v that I'm starting to develop on my stomach, and am really starting to get to love my arms and shoulders

Hiya - i just wanted to reply and tell you that i probablay could have written this post myself a few months ago, after months of reading about the benefits of lifting heavy, and seeing the results of those ladies that did it, i decided that i wanted a go, and decided to start a programme. To start with i was terrified of…

ok great thank you

Lol

Ahh what a shame - mine wasn't quite that bad I just got up out if the hole awkwardly and pulled something it was fine after a couple of days rest - hope your feeling better soon - don't let it out you off

Yup - celebrated my third wedding anniversary yesterday :tongue:

I did that a few months ago - ended up having to go right back and starting again - this time I'm defo going to get it right

lol nah I don't think I could give it up now to be honest I really enjoy picking up large lumps of metal- way more fun then running for 40 mins

Oh duh I didn't think of that lol - good idea though I shall try it when I'm in the gym next

Oh dear lol - I did wonder if I should just give up now but I actually really enjoy squats

Unfortunately I go to a commercial gym so there isn't anything I can do about the mirrors

Thank everyone comments are really useful-I thought I was using the low bar position to be honest but after the comments I watched it back and I can see that the bar is defo sat to high. So when I train next I will make sure I bring it down a bit lower. Hopefully these will be easy fixes, I didn't realise it would be so…

Thank everyone comments are really useful-I thought I was using the low bar

Oh gosh I thought I was doing a low barbell position but now watching it again I can see quite clearly that it seems to have worked its way up. Ok I'm going to seriously work on this. My husband said that he thought I was to far forward but we weren't sure how to correct it

Wow thanks for that guess I still have more work to do - going to need to have a look at some more form videos etc and see if I can get rid of the 'butt wink' not even entirely sure what it is lol. I will defo make more of an effort to correct my head placement as well. Thanks :0)

Thank you :0) it was actually a personal best for me and I did struggle somewhat towards the end - it did feel as though I was moving about throughout the squat so I will defo take that on board - I'm just pleased they don't look to bad compared to what they were like lol

Finally managed to get someone to film me today - I wanted to check that my squats look ok if someone wouldn't mind giving it the once over - he didn't get my feet I'm which is a bit annoying but hopefully this will be enough to be able to see if my form is ok http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBg7p4XwL5k&sns=em Thanks

Hey feel free to add me!!! :0)

It feels so good to have made that first step honestly I was so stressed about it before hand, now I'm wondering what all the fuss was about lol - you should defo not let this put you off after a while you just kinda go into your own zone and kinda forget about it
