You may freak out at what I'm going to say... roasted brussel sprouts. I have a few vegetable aversions myself, but this really is my go to veggie dish when I have more time to cook dinner.

Yes, all of the NROL programs are full body 3x week.

Oh dear, that is awkward.

I may be off since I'm still learning things myself, but I suspect a bulk cycle should be the next step for you. You are small. You need to build that muscle first on a bulk before you are going to...

I think she meant 59kg ;)

Loestrin caused some weight issues for me as well. I went off it about 1.5 months ago and it seems like things are starting to readjust. I kept my calories the same as...

For all you DLB fans, a new vid just went up on Youtube. Girl is insane!

I generally lift in tight shorts/capris and prefer something a little looser on top.

I know I read this somewhere in the 8000 posts, but I want to clarify to make sure I didn't get something confused. Over the next 2 weeks I have to skip my light day due to travel. Do I handle this...

There is a thread in the stickies on this part of the forum titled "Realistic Goals and Competing". I would highly suggest reading it before the thought of competing crosses your mind. There are...

At 17 I topped the scales at 205 and I had borderline high cholesterol (~200). Sadly, I had no idea I was that big and that unhealthy until my pre-college physical. That was the breaking point for...

All in the belly. (Plus my stomach and head because I usually feel like h-ll, like right now.)

I snarfed at the "genetically gifted" comment from lurking in those entertaining threads.

I love our education system.

I exaggerated out of frustration. Two guys in the squat rack doing everything but squats in between sets (Mountain climbers, stretching, walking around). One "babysat" the rack if the other wanted...

Continuing the aside...I'm really glad I stumbled upon someone saying this. I'm a new lifter and just finished Stage 1 but I am not looking forward to the rest because of the silly exercises and...

Not sure what happened but I had some magic tonight. I pushed the 25lb DB OH press tonight for 8 reps. The 2nd and 3rd set I failed after the 6th rep but I was so excited to get over that hurdle.

^This.

How did you work up to the deadhang? Negatives or assisted machine?

Thanks for the advice everyone. I'll try out the BB OH press to see what I can hit that way. Squats, I may stick with 75 for the first 2 sets and try 80 on the 3rd set. I can squat that weight but...

Not body weight (that's a whole other story), lifting weight.

Long time lurker, new lifter here. I'm near the end of NROLFW Stage 1 and for a few of the lifts I feel stuck. For 3 sets, 10 reps...

Coming out of lurkdom and subbing. Like others said, I find I'm learning much more from following journals. I am currently in the last week of stage 1 of NROLFW. Lifting is a whole new world to me...
