My 1 year progress
Hey all, I've been around longer than a year and have gone through many different ways to change my body, but I finally see a bit of a difference in my progress pics so I thought I would share. I'm not real strict on my cutting, so I'm sure I could really apply myself and get as lean as some others have been able to get,…

Form Check
Hey all! It really helped to get some input last time, so here I am to bug you again. I put all of my videos here in one message. If you have the time, please take a look and drop a few lines of advice for me. This is the B day of Stronglifts, btw, recorded last Friday: Squat: Still working on my form a lot here. I have…

Thighs!!
I love my thighs! (Didn't expect that, did you?) I'm still working on reducing fat, so yeah, they aren't as defined as they are going to be or as they once were. I'm proud that they are shapely, strong and healthy. They may not be everyone's preference, but they are mine and I love them I hope that others will post pics of…

Does he look thinner to you?
So I have been a bad cat mom and have spoiled this little rascal until he got way too big. I mean, he couldn’t even fit through the litter box opening for a while there. So we went on a serious diet and have been really regulating when I feed him. I have to feed him separately from the other cats or he will steal all of…

Trying to weigh my cat
Hey, so I am having the hardest time getting my cat to stay still on the scale. I set her on it and she just walks off over and over again. I even tried some treats but she won't get on the scale all of the way. Any suggestions?

Vegan cat diet
A couple months ago, a friend of mine moved in with her boyfriend who is severely allergic to cats. Her cat is a real sweetheart, named Micky, and I was very willing to take her. I have a couple already so it was not a problem for me. Everything was going great and I have finally integrated Micky with my own cats and they…

Diet or lifestyle change?
I'm just curious regarding those of us that are using this site to track our eating habits, to whatever end that may be (losing weight, cutting, bulking, managing illness, etc). How many of you think of yourselves on a diet and how many of you consider this a lifestyle change? If you consider yourself on a diet, do you…

Protein intake and labels
This has been on my mind the last couple of days and I thought I would share, maybe others would agree that they have the same experience. From my own experience, if I do not get in enough protein for the day (and I fall short of my goals daily, but some days more than others) I tend to be much hungrier the next day. This…

Fun gifs
Ok, since the other one is apparently locked for some reason...:huh: ...lets continue uploading your funny pics and gifs here, so you can have a laugh on this fine Friday. I'll begin with one of the ones I saw on the last thread in response to the locking of the thread:

SL squat form check
Hi all! I video'd myself this morning so I could get a form check. I just started over a week ago, so I am still getting used to the idea of going all the way down below parallel for the squat, so I do see several times where I may not be going all the way down. Anyway, help me out and take a look and give critic (about my…

Went to lunch...
And when I came back, the thread for "what kind of MFPer are you" is gone!! Anyone know what happened without getting themselves in trouble?? It seemed like a tame thread to me...

SL & Cardio
I was just wondering, are any of you also doing cardio with your SL routine? I would rather do only lifting because I despise cardio myself, but I am just curious to see what others are doing.

Funny at the gym
I thought the Stronglifts gals would get a kick out of what happened to me this morning. Dude at the gym this morning while I am bench pressing: "you need to add more weight", me, "I'm working up to it". Note that I'm at 55 lbs, I just started SL over a week ago, so I add 5 lbs each time. Anyhoo, I go over to start my…

Sort of a motivator at the gym
Dude at the gym this morning while I am bench pressing: "you need to add more weight", me, "I'm working up to it". Note that I'm at 55 lbs, I just started SL over a week ago, so I add 5 lbs each time. Anywho, I go over to start my rows, which are also at 55 lbs, using the Olympic bar, which is way harder than 55 lbs on…

Irony?

SL row form check
I know this one has all sorts of wrong with it. Right off, I need to bring the bar closer to my ankles to start out. The videos I have seen, the person is "crouched" much lower. I can't seem to get down to the right angle and maybe the shoe problem will help here as well?…

SL bench press form check
Another form check on my bench press from this morning. Still building up weight, of course, but should I be going slower on this one as well? https://www.dropbox.com/s/j4qv52lp2f2k9m7/DSCN3480.AVI
