I took a week off last week and it was great. I mostly take breaks for mental reasons. When I stop enjoying my workouts or they become a chore, I know it's time. I also was developing runner's knee,...

agree. i do 4oz chicken or turkey, 4oz sweet potato and a cup of broccoli. i think id pass out if i got less than that.

I squatted 145 lbs (5x8) on Monday, which was a personal record--still paying for it today! Stairs are the enemy.

maybe some of the other girls want to weigh in, but i am currently bulking and taking in ~1.5-1.7g pro/lb. if you aren't seeing the results you want, you might try experimenting with the diet.

I am 4.5 weeks out from a show. TELL. ME. ABOUT. IT.

No guy has ever corrected what I'm doing, but I've gotten serious attitude from a few guys about working in. They somehow can't believe that anything I'm using the Olympic rack for could be worth...
