Workout Acne
I normally dont suffer from much acne minus the odd pimple here and there, but every time I get on a real work out kick I break out. My jawline, chest and shoulders. I make sure to shower right after my workout and I am eating well. Anyone else have this issue and what did you find worked to combat your wacne?

What did you dream?
I dreamed last night that I got attacked by raccoons and while I was on my way to the hospital to get my wounds treated I got into an accident where a semi literally wrapped itself around my car but no one was injured and when I was exchanging information with the driver of the semi it was Jeff Bauman (sp?), boston bombing…

I have ZERO…

Smith Machine
I'm just starting out with NROLFW though I am no stranger to lifting... We have a Smith Machine for squats at our local gym. I am assuming I should use a squat rack and not rely on the Smith machine for squats as you use more supporting muscles outside of the Smith Machine? Thanks in advance :)

My favourite things to do on the forums!
Is to read the first page of posts on a thread to get the jist and then skip to about 10 pages in and see who has peeved who off and how far off of the original topic that the replies have drifted to! For example a recent thread that I started began with basically saying no to junk food and ended with people accusing…

A side thread off of the 5000 calorie day thread...
I am just wondering because my mind is boggled. I'm not trying to be condescending or rude. This is an honest question/statement. Alot of the fittest people on this site (who I'm not naming cuz i dont want to finger point but are super knowledgeable and well known for giving great advice and they know who they are and can…

They look nice in tight jeans but probably couldnt do a push up to save their life! Well I think there should be another term out there for people…

Is it just me? Or does everyone have friends on MFP that reach a plateau, post that they need help for ideas on how to break said plateau and then when people post their tips (ie not eating before bed, cutting out candy, changing their calorie intake, increasing of changing their exercise regime) they reply to each tip…
