It made huge difference!!!! I place bar on rear delts but then widen hand position to avoid transference of weight to elbows and tendon issues. Form…

i like classes, i find i work out well by myself, but push harder in a class. you can get to know people after a while too! try some different ones, you have more chance of finding stuff you like. which ever way you go, the more often you go - like 3 times a week if you can, the fitter you will get and you will feel going…

my gym has a sauna - nothing better then a good work out class then alternating between a cool shower and a sauna a couple of times! It's that feeling of exhaustion and freshness all at the same time!

i use protein powder for breakky and dessert at night. not exciting but i like it! However, I make my own jerky and use it as a carb-snack substitute! Partial freeze your fat-free meat ( I like turkey, beef or even kangaroo!!!! lol) slice as thin as possible. Marinade in garlic, soy sauce, even curry powder, even a dash of…
