I know it won't last long and I will have to change my training and particularly the diet. I'm just enjoying this while it lasts! :)

Yes, that's a perfect way to put it! But I know it won't last long, and I'll have to tweak my diet and training again. But I sure am enjoying it now!

Thank you Kimm!

Well, it sounds worse than what it really is. Friday night is pizza night and sometimes I eat bad Saturday night but not very weekend. It's just not stalling me like it use too, which is a nice...

According to Mark Rippetoe, author of Starting Strength and a strength and conditioning coach, you are suppose to lean forward when back squatting. For a quick reference look him up on youtube, just...

Not that kind of clicking, not yet anyway! ;)

I can't explain it and I don't completely understand it but my body has finally started performing and responding optimally. What I mean is: I am leaning out without having to do much cardio at...

Thank you for the compliment! You moved that weight pretty easily there girlie; you have a lot more in you!!! Great job!

I finally reached a long time goal of benching 185 tonight. Here's my video link: https://youtu.be/4tbFFPUFErg

I'm doing this program myself right now. I think that was a smart move getting the 1.25 plates. Is your rest time between sets long enough? Sometimes I feel like I've had enough rest but will...

Starting Strength would be a great program for you to try. I agree with the others that this one you have really isn't ideal. Question, what "results" do you want to start seeing? Strength, muscle...

I like the way you think!

I like that!

Hmm, I'll have to pay attention and see if that's my issue too. I have worried about the bar staying in place and not slipping down as I go heavier.

Yeah, I agree. Those shoes are definitely not helping!

After successfully increasing my lifts over many months, I've decided to take a step back and really concentrate on my form with low bar squat. Although my squat got up to 240, my depth was lacking....

My favorite snack is plain Greek yogurt mixed with a scoop of choc whey protein. After sitting for a few minutes, it's creamy, choc heaven!
