  • Everytime I worked out I thought "Sexy Wedding Dress!!" I also had 2 girlfriends working out with me and eating clean. Have you found an accountability partner to work with?
  • Hi Everyone! New to the group~ I'll be 30 on Nov. 4th, am 5'4" 132 pounds with a goal to be 129 (or under!) by the beginning of the year. I'm in a few challenges through my gym and facebook groups to keep me accountable. My last measurement was 18.6% body fat, so I'd like to go lower, and possible get from a size 6 to a…
  • Hi there! I'm almost 30, 5'4" 132 pounds, goal of 129 with lower body fat :) I was 125 size 2 pre twins and now I'm a size 6, so I'd like to get down to a 4! Anyone can add me!

  • Hi Ladies!! I'm so excited to see everyone's progress and success!! @may: that sounds like a good plan! your progress pics are fantastic!

If you have specific questions about training/form/nutrition, go ahead and send me a personal message so I can respond sooner in case I don't have time…
  • ^^^Everything she said!!!
  • Yes, I would go for it. I did NO cardio during the first stage and gained 2 pounds. Now that I added it back in this past week those pounds are off...go figure. DO whichever cardio will work best for you on that day :)
  • I would keep going. I feel like any time I take time off I immediately lose my strength and it takes about 2 weeks to get back~ that's just my opinion. I would make sure you aren't over training and doing too much. Take a rest day when you feel you need it. It looked as though stage 2 had both upper and lower body…

  • @jazoo- stick with it and challenge yourself as necessary. If you feel the workout is too short I say definitely add :) @mnsmov 15- keep it up!! You are progressing great! @alasin- My right knee crackles whenever I squat or lunge, it doesn't hurt unless I I do step ups at the wrong angle. I'm going to start working out…

  • Ladies amazing job to all of you!! So Sorry I've been MIA~ I complete A4 on Tuesday then got hit Wednesday with horrible dizziness, migraine and tiredness and couldn't workout until today!! B4~ I did 3 sets of 12 plus some added cardio. Total about an hour workout :) Deadlift went up to 115#~ @sunshinelively I'm also…
  • Shoulders are a smaller muscle group so I wouldn't worry about how heavy you go. Just focus on keeping a 90 degree angle with elbows in line with your shoulders and pressing up to a full extension. Strength will build over time :)
