Question for women who primarily strength train...

Glute tips?
My goal is to have a hell of a booty. I've been working the leg presses, lunges, squats and straight leg deadlifts regularly.

If you happen to be an emotional eater...
what does food represent for you? I know I'm horrible with this, but I'm really trying to put WHY I eat (binge) into perspective in hopes that I can learn more to eat when feeling hungry instead. Food represents contentment, safety, and company for me.

Something I've found that works for me.
I abhor cardio.

Mom of 5 looking for some willpower....
Hello all! I've never in my life tracked calories or anything of the sort. I've always found it incredibly tedious and and logically I know when I'm eating more than I should, but over the winter months that hasn't seemed to stop me so I thought I would try something new. I work better when I have good guidelines and I was…
