good call on the push vs pull! and i think you're right on condensing to 4 days...for some reason i was feeling like, "if i can't squat/deadlift, i need to do more elsewhere to make up for it" but...

so, i hurt my hamstring playing soccer. i think it's actually my hamstring tendon (basically the back of my knee) and it's not bad enough to need a doctor so i know it's just going to take rest and...

seriously.

my first warmup set is always just the bar with no weight. don't worry about looking dumb, at all!

hey ladies,
i have about 4 weeks between now and the time i need to begin a short period of training for a particular event (a tough mudder...i am still going to be lifting but will be adding in...

ha, yes, i know that. it's just that...man, if anyone had told me before i got into bodybuilding that SO MUCH of it was mental, i'd have never believed them.

dudes, thank you, that is totally the perspective i needed.

i took an unplanned deload week last week because i twisted my ankle on an icy sidewalk and realized i hadn't taken a week off for awhile anyway, so it was okay. i came back for one chest workout,...

i totally agree with this! i have been lifting heavy for about a year and a half and just yesterday did 5x5 with 25lb dumbbells for the first time...stick with it and you'll get there.

re:pushups,...

in! pm-ing you.

awesome, thanks buddy.

pardon me for being a total dummy on this, but which thread in the supplements forum are you guys talking about? i'd like to review some supplements from a lady-perspective for sure!

jokes, buddy.

you have to be careful though because i ate too much protain and gained 12 pounds of muscle in ONE WEEK! i am way too bulky now.

arggg! i know in my head that this is the right answer, but i hate to put off leg day for two reasons: 1) i hate leg day, and putting it off makes me feel like i am just being a lazy slacker...it's...

so, the other day i was scraping snow off my car and slipped on the ice, sort of sliding off the sidewalk into the street, and i twisted my ankle. i think it's just sprained...nothing serious,...

i have done both and would definitely recommend NROLFW over jamie eason. NROLFW is great for beginners to build a muscle base and functional strength, along with a solid understanding of why you're...

oh man, that calorie calculation is such a great way to keep sane about this. i am definitely putting that in my arsenal of 'stuff to say to myself when i freak out a bit.'

lately when i look in...

none at all! i am bulking and am already dreading doing cardio when i start cutting in the spring.

i am also registering for a tough mudder race in august, so i'll have to get back up to running...

yeah, i would definitely go to a doctor for that. i had patella tracking issues too (apparently it's common in active women because of our hip structure) and a few rounds of PT really helped me to...
