This thread is too quiet! I have now done 3a and 3b once. I loved 3a. It was a fun workout and the BWM is positively evil. Surprisingly, I wasn't too sore from it. 3b though was boring. Although the YTWL does kill, I miss heavy weights. I also hate prone cobra. How's everyone else doing? I am dreading the BWM I have to do…

Congrats to everyone who started! I am in the middle of Stage 3. The Stage 1 workouts go quickly, but you will soon miss the short workouts. Great job everyone and feel free to add me if you want some extra support.

I finished Stage 2 yesterday. I posted a blog with my results: http://losingatlosing.blogspot.com/2013/04/new-rules-of-lifting-for-women-stage.html I didn't love Stage 2. I am hoping Stage 3 is better - which from what I hear a lot of people say they like it better. I am not taking any break off because I took my time…

Hey girls. I have one workout left in Stage 2 and then I will post my results. Stage two has taken me FOREVER because I keep skipping workouts - I took a whole week off last week. So what should have taken 2.5 weeks is now 4 weeks. Ready to finish Stage 2 and move on! Good job everyone! I am not loving Stage 2. I'm…

I wrote that in another blog post. See this one: http://losingatlosing.blogspot.com/2013/03/nrol4w-stage-one-complete.html

I'm starting Stage 2 today - I have a feeling the squats + step ups + lunges are going to kick my *kitten*! But I am really looking forward to this stage.

Tried on pants I haven't worn in years and they fit! Which makes me down 4-5 sizes!

30-35 or so. I usually do a 15 minute warm up on the bike too - just to get my muscles loose.

Totally understand. RIP bigger boobs. :(

I usually lose 5-6 my first week. It feels great! But remember that it is likely water weight and don't expect those great big numbers all the time. Slow and steady wins the race.

By the end - by the last one - I was nearly dead. Like hardly able to get up. Then as soon as I felt comfortable on the last one - it meant it was time up weight. My last set of lunges was nearly fatal.. haha.

I didn't follow the book diet. To me, that was eating too much. I know everyone is different, but I stick to a 1200-1400 calorie diet. Even with that I feel like I'm eating all the time. I think I started off way too low so I increased weight almost every time. That would be part of the reason why my gains look so big.. :)

8.98% since January 1st - 17.35% so far... now to go for the big 20% weight loss number.

I am 4 months in... the front isn't nearly as pretty, but I'm a work in progress.

Thought I'd join in on the NROL4W fun.. I'm Ashley and I'm on State 1, Workout B 5 today. Favorite part: My shoulders are getting so much stronger - noticed this when I did a plank for fun the other day. Least favorite part: Step ups! I used to hate lunges... but step ups are like 6 times worse. Anyways, I'm losing some…

Work on form - not heavy weights at first. Think about it - do you ever judge other people as they work out? I am usually too busy trying to catch my breath to worry about anyone else - and they are likely the same way. If you really want some help, grab a friend or get a few personal training sessions to help you start.…

You look amazing and are incredible! Nothing can stop you!
