Went from the OL look to a DB. Good job!

I thought the same before I stepped on a scale. Down 12lbs and a couple notches on my weight belt in 4 months. For an endomorph like me, 3lbs a month is pretty good. Add to that the medications I am...

I took these 'selfies' to document my progress. I started StrongLifts on July 27th, and followed that program to a 'T' until December 1st. I am now on my 2nd week of a hypertrophy program. The...

I had a stroke in May 2012. I was obese (270+lbs), high blood pressure, and borderline diabetic). I made a decision in my hospital bed to get back in shape...and stay in shape. 3 years later, I am...

I USED to count calories, and was extremely frustrated. I then starting counting carbs, which for some reason...was very easy. My doctor told me to eat 3 meals a day, each meal no more than 45g of...

That's awesome...congrats. You are on the right track. I was 275 at my highest (05/12), and am now at 220. I had a stroke in 05/12, and was just cleared a few months ago by my doctor to start lifting...

The main thing, at least for me, is to physically see results...not as much on the scale as in the mirror, and how my clothes fit. I started a weight training program about 6 weeks ago after being...

Thanks RFabsik, that attachment is exactly what I need! I went to Sports Authority and Dick's Sporting Goods yesterday looking, but couldn't find anything like this.

I forgot about hack squats. I can switch out from a front squat one day, then a hack squat couple days later. Maybe throw a dumbbell squat in there as well.

Thanks for the reply. Maybe I should have included my workout, ooops.

Workout A
Squat, OH Press, Deadlift

Workout B
Squat, Bench Press, Bent Over Rows

I am not able to do squats anymore due to a bad shoulder from too many years as a pitcher. My issue is that I can't move my arm back past my shoulder blade, so I can't get my arm back behind my head...

Hello everyone, glad to be back. I have been gone for 2+ years, but the reason why is probably different than what you are thinking. My journey has been a strange one, but hopefully someone can learn...

x10000000000 ^. This is one of the core exercises that to me is a MUST DO!

Don't know if that is the order of exercises, but I would definately move squats on day 1 and day 3 to the top of the list, and deadlift to the top on day 2 and 4.

WHAT!!! I feel guilty if I drink 1 can of diet Coke a week! 4 cans a day..... boing, boing, boing.

OK, so you did some lifting. I also did some lifting in the past, but not much, and just kind of went to the gym with buddies. I would consider starting over and doing it right. I started here;

Are you new to lifting? In other words, have you ever done a weight lifting program?

I am leaving work now, and will respond later tonight after I get back from the gym. But yes, their are...

All right, enough of the pitty party. You have lost weight, so something IS working. Focus on the positive, forget the negative. Dude, I am 5'8", was 260+lbs, and blood pressure of 225/160. In other...

Depends on what you want. Look at people on treadmills, then look at people lifting. What do you want to look like?

You found a good place to start, here on the bb.com forums. Now, research. Use...
