This is right on point. Once I stopped thinking in terms of upping by pounds, and instead looked at increasing the weight by percentage, I gained a greater and more realistic appreciation for how...

Fortunately, I have access to a fridge, microwave...

as well as bottled and fountain water and an ice machine, all provided by my employer. Company meals (birthday parties, etc.) have their share of sweets and junk, but there are always plenty of fresh...

I'd never say never...

I will offer unsolicited advice in cases where I think a fellow trainer may seriously injure themselves or someone near them.

Also, if the person is an obvious novice (they usually have a...

The best of both worlds...

I'm partial to the women who look like cardio bunnies, but lift like true iron warriors. You know them when you see them: curves in all the right places (with no apparent artificial enhancements),...

Whatever you do, play it safe...

My experience is the same: I've been lifting seriously for a little more than 15 years, rarely with a partner and only on my heaviest lifts with a spotter. Lifting to failure is something that should...

I'm less than two years from the big 5-0...

and the idea of going back into the clubs is not an option as far as mid-life crisis activities go. I've been creeped out too many times by getting hit on by women who are literally the age of my...

I Loooove Eggs!

I love to make omellettes, sometimes with all egg whites, often with a mix of egg whites and one whole egg, occasionally with all whole eggs. Omellettes are great because you can put veggies...

All I have to do is think about how far I've come...

Unlike when I first got serious about the bodybuilding/fitness lifestyle, it is very easy for me to stay motivated--I just have to look in the mirror. I LIKE WHAT I SEE! I've made so much progress in...

I would classify myself as a well-informed intermediate. I'd definitely be in the advanced class if I had time to train more consistently, but the demands of wife, job, kids, etc. make it difficult...

When I was younger (a teen, young adult smaller and skinnier than most of my peers), my motivation was to gain a superhero physique (I still love my comic book collection to this day), along with the...

Because my work hours are so unpredictable during the work week, I count on getting in at least one workout over the weekend (my goal is to train 4-5 times each week). Saturdays are usually my best...

It's legs for me, too, even though they aren't bad. They just lag behind my upper body, especially with the improvement in my back/lats (which used to be my weakest body parts, but now are my...

Frustrated? Yes. Guilty? Never.

My schedule is so hectic (job, wife, kids, etc.) that every opportunity to get into the gym is like gold. Usually, when I miss training, is because I have to, not...

Anyone know why? Is it only me?

Chin-ups/pull-ups

I still mix them (the old-fashioned, unassisted kind) into my routine. Sometimes I will do two or three sets of 10-12 as a warm-up for back day. Other times, I will do three sets of 10, or to failure...
