  • Try reading New Rules of Lifting for Women. I am happy to hear your are interested in lifting, it is the way to go. The diet is most important component, trust me. I tried to lift on a crappy diet for a year with no results. I am stubborn but have seen the light.
  • Yes, Lifting. Read New Rules of Lifting for Women. Lift like a man to look like a Goddess.
  • I think buying the Starting Strenght book is a good move. It has a 3 days per week program in the back. I would follow that. The reason I dont is I like the split of push, pull, & legs.

  • Like Whaaat by Problem. The reminder about Break Stuff is great. I gotta add that to the playlist. It realy does make we want to break stuff.
  • I like to hear about realistic goals and good nutrition, not ridciulous calorie restriction that never works. I have been eating 2300-2500 calories for the month of June and not not lost or gained any significant weight. I am trying to loose the last few lbs and maintian or gain the muscle I have. My cal goal is 2550 and…
  • I recently became obsessed with doing pull ups. I went from not being able to do any to any to 5. All the way down to elbow lock out. I did this by using the assist machine.
