Hi,

I've been doing all pro's beginner workout for about 5 months now (on the 4th cycle) and am concerned about the fact that my ability on the bench press exercise is not increasing.

I'm 31...

Here is my situation.....

Former really fat guy, weighed 290 lbs on Jan 1st of this year.

Lost over 100 lbs, got down to 165 lbs at one point. I basically just want to look really good and...

Got down to 165 lbs. I don't know my body fat percentage now, but I'm starting to see abs poking through a little if I flex. Granted my lower abdobmen still a mess. Is the consensus for me still...

Hi,

I have been doing all pro's beginner workout for awhile with dumbbells but recently switched to barbells because I was told it's better that way. I was expecting to be able to lift a little...

I'm jealous. Thanks for sharing all the information.

Thanks. Just as an update, I got a DEXA body composition scan today and it says my body fat is 15.3%. Am going to continue eating a deficit and lifting and see if I can get to 10% by the end of...

Thanks for all the advice.

I had my body composition analyzed by a DEXA machine today, which they touted as being the most accurate. It said my body fat was 15.3%. I certainly don't look like...

Yeah, I've been looking into places around town that do tummy tucks, but haven't contacted anyone yet. The more I think of it, the more I want to get down into the 150's and see how it looks. Then...

So do you think I should keep cutting down into the 155 range? People have been telling me to bulk now, but I can't tolerate the way my abdominal area looks and fear adding fat back on too soon.

I'm in the same situation Daftcody. Went from 290 pounds on Jan 1st this year and am currently 175 pounds. My stomach is horrible looking. Luckily my arms, legs, and chest seem OK. I am...

The one pill that has helped me lose 115 pounds so far is slimstyles PGX. It's an expanding fiber, I take 4 capsules before meals and also drink 32 oz of water. They expand in your gut and make you...

Hi, thanks for the responses.

I have simply upped the resistance on the machines and added a few minutes and am finding that it's challenging again. Today I couldn't even finish the full...

Hi,

I recently lost an embarrassing amount of weight, down to 185 from 290 on jan 1st. I did this by eating 1500 calories per day and working up to 90 minutes of steady state cardio 6x weekly -...

I haven't been lifting for awhile due to an injury (pulled my hamstring doing squats/deadlifts), but have been hitting cardio hard and have lost 90 pounds since March 1st. I know I've still got a...

Nice story sir, I recently went through the same thing as you, I'm down 90 pounds and am trying to pack on some muscle. But I really can relate to how woefully unprepared you were coming out of...

You look pretty ripped to me man. I would consider upping the cardio to 3x per week, but that's me. I prefer sustained steady state over intervals and find that I get better results if I put more...

Do it for yourself, don't let criticisms get you down, but use them as motivation to improve. People will pick up on your confidence and it will make you look better to them even if your physique is...

Hi,

I recently strained or pulled my hamstring, not sure which. I noticed my right hammy feeling a little sore then someone else in the gym pointed out that there was a massive looking bruise on...

To me it's because of emotional eating - which leads to apathy, then a downward spiral in which the soul source of one's pleasure in life becomes the consumption of extremely high caloric food.

Hi,

I've been doing all pro's beginner workout for about a month now. I have to stay in hotels 2-3 weeks per month for work so I do at least half of my workouts at hotel gyms. Most of these...
