  • Me too I love my deadlifts! Workout 3B today and deadlift was 110lbs :bigsmile: I know I'd get bored if I added extra workouts to stage one, much as I like the squats and deads I know they'll be back

  • Thanks @jenniet04 the multipliers for bmi over 25 are 1.2 for non-workout days and 1.4 on workout days which gives 1670 on non-workout days and 1947 on workout days. Does that seem right? I think I'll go with the initial calories and see how it goes.
  • Thanks but this doesn't apply as the multipliers are for under 35yrs
  • Sorry I've rechecked (using fat2fit BMR calculator) and it takes me to BMR not below, but still this seems to contradict what the book says. Any more thoughts I'm 38, 5'2" and 183lb if this helps.
  • Completed 3A today and I've graduated too the squat rack and the olympic bar!!:bigsmile: So, So happy it felt like a really great workout today, and really lifted my mood as I'd been feeling low over the last few days. Now the problem is that I don't want to wait until friday to lift again. Next week I'll be lifting 3 days…

  • Completed B2 today, managed to increase on the deadlifts and think I could go higher, especially with the drop in reps. I do think I will feel it tomorrow though, already feeling tight in some of the muscles.

  • Hi Alli, only you can say if you are lifting heavy enough. If you are tired at the end of each set and struggling through the last couple of reps, then yes. If not up the weight but stay aware of good form. Sorry can't help with the food as I'm trying to get that in order myself, book has me on 2084 cal on non-lifting days…

  • Just back from doing 1B2. Love this program so much!! @Lozze I was directed to a you tube video of Mark Rippetoe teaching squats and he recommends toes turned out, I've followed this as I have joint problems and can get parallel this way but not with toes forward. The book does say that every body is different and to adapt…

  • I felt the same way, but having seen other peoples results I was determined to enter the man-cave. On my second workout one of the trainers commented on my good form for deadlifts and said how nice it was to see a woman doing free weights, I then got chatting to another guy. Yes they will look at you, but it will probably…
  • Hi, from what has been posted by other lifters that I have read follow Rippetoe guide for squat form.

  • I'm obese and started last week. The way I read it was that the muscle burns more calories than fat, so you will continue to burn fat while lifting, all sounds good to me as I much prefer lifting to cardio. Feel free to add me, I'm happy to share progress and boost you along :flowerforyou:

  • Same here I have only done the first 2 stage one work outs, but no real soreness.
  • Hi Funbun someone posted this link on one of the other pages that might help challenge you with your jack knives. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6q7k_D6DGQ&list=PL4CE51ED9E54AA7C3&index=2&feature=plpp_video

  • From what I've seen other places, add a weight. Hold it on your chest and if thats to easy hold a dumbell above your head
