Hi Ladies,

My goals are slightly different than most posted here. I am currently very happy with the amount of muscle mass I have gained in the past ~year training. Now, I'm ready to get rid of...

It's been quite a while since I posted, but I did one cycle of ECA for about 2 weeks and then took about a week off and started taking it on my low carb days only and it's absolutely fabulous. I...

I have always heard that fats should be a little higher intake on low carb days. That way you're still able to meet caloric needs using the fats and proteins and then on carb days they're replaced...

Yes, bell peppers are considered fibrous veggies. Onions have about 16 grams of carbs per cup with only 2 grams being fiber.

HIIT can be done on any type of cardio equipment. You're just incorporating different speeds/intensities for varying times.

I'm also going to try to post some pictures this week and would appreciate any comments anyone has to offer. Thanks.

So, after the weeks of bitching, binging, and bloating.....I'm giving in. :(

I realized after talking with several trainers that I need to return to my old methods (if I want to achieve the...

Diet was on track all weekend. Thinking of meeting with a new personal trainer to establish a diet and make sure I'm on track...we'll see...I'll make calls today.

Monday: weights, low intensity cardio pwo
Tuesday: weights, no cardio
Wednesday: weights, no cardio
Thursday: weights, cardio pwo OR just...

No, I do not train 7 days a week. I have at least 1 entire day off. I usually lift 3-4 days, cardio 3-4 days and at least the 1 rest day. My schedule just fluctuates. Thanks for the concern.

Still really getting confused and hoping that I figure things out with diet/training. Only issues now are if I should be doing high reps and low weight to not add anymore mass to my legs or if diet...

Arrrggghhh!! You're right, I don't WANT to hear that, but I want the truth. :(
I just hate the thought of having to do that to get there. I just really wish I could keep my carbs around 150 g/day to...

Thanks. I've really been trying, but at night, for some reason, right around 11pm I'm just so awake and full of energy. I force myself to go to bed and then just lay there, fully awake....When the...

To compete, eventually....if I can ever get there...I realize the last 2 weeks can require to go really low carb, but my question revolves around up to that point, the point where you're in the...

What sort of plyometrics are we talking about here? Thanks, all.

That's how I've been eating them. :( Steamed.

Hi Ladies,
Yet again....conflicting information that I'm trying to resolve....I realize that every individual is different and that several things can work for one person, etc. Can ANYONE, anyone...

Not a problem. I feel as though all of us women struggle with so many body image issues, and it's truly disheartening, but we all go through it. I'm grateful there are forums like this to discuss so...

Hope I'm not too late......DON'T DO IT!!!!
Just picture yourself having to be in a bikini in front of the hottest guy you know.....imagine what great self esteem you'll have knowing you look good by...
