I love DOMS
When I wake up the next day after a lifting workout and I can feel every single muscle I worked the day before, I love it. Makes me feel like something is happening, that change is going down!

Dumbbell single-arm overhead squat question...
What are your weights on this? I tried it with 20 and 10 and it was killing my lower back (which already hurt but it just made it worse). I tried it with 10 and 5 and I still can't seem to get the form right. I smack myself in the leg with the lower dumbbell when I'm squatting and I can't keep the upper dumbbell from…

Talk to me about MSM...
I'm heavy lifting and I keep seeing MSM as a suggested supplement for heavy lifters, any experiences with it?

HIIT question
Will speed rope/ jump rope work as a HIIT workout? Or jumping jacks? I need something that I can do in my weight area because I can't leave (go run or bike), I am doing it at home with my kidlets running around.

Looking for more heavy lifting mom friends!
I just started NROLFW on Monday and I'm looking for more moms who lift heavy, not necessarily those who are doing that specific program ;) I am a mom of six - 13 year old boy, 9 year old boy, 6 year old girl, 4 year old boy, and 2 1/2 year old twin boys. I started out at about a size 14 and now am an 8. I'm not so much…

Lunge question...
In the book it says to alternate legs, starting on the non-dominant leg, and complete the reps on each leg for each set - 15 per set total or 30? Does that even make sense?

Stupid question...
So, when you log the weight you used for the exercises that require dumbbells vs. the barbell do you put the total weight or just the weight of one dumbbell? I know, stupid question.
