I played with it over the summer (maybe twice a week) to learn form before I tried increasing weight. I've been serious about it for a few weeks, maybe about a month.

On overhead press, last workout I got my reps in, but the last set was really slow. Today, I added 5 pounds, got in 5 slow reps, then just one on the second set. Complete lift fail.

What I've...

Wanting to do better for yourself should never be an embarassment.

95% of the people at my gym probably lift more than me. I don't care. I'm there for me, not for them.

Don't be embarassed...

I lol'd in my pants...

Keet is correct, Fitness Gear. I bench outside because it's squeezed into the end of the basement, and I feel pretty comfortable with the safeties. Thanks for the tip though, I always appreciate...

That would be great to do some rust pull-downs on. Or maybe some stiff-legged dust coughs.

My first home gym experience...

Picked up all the iron for $200 with the bars and such, and got the cage for another $200. The cage has a lat/row attachment, but it wouldn't fit with my low...

So I screwed up bulking by miscalculating my fat intake and being generally irresponsible. I learned my lesson, but now I'm trying to get rid of my gut, which I had before but is worse now. So I'm...

Maybe this is one of those things that everyone knows and I just missed, but I found an easy way to calculate macros for 40/40/20, using the 4/9/4 rule.

Take the cals you want, divide that by ten,...

I never thought I'd say this ever, let alone here...

Bulgogi ftw...

^ can attest to this

I do the same thing; it's good to mix things up. I would suggest using the protein finder thing in the store. You can sort by price per serving. I personally use ON Casein, but I'm sure others...

Sorry, didn't see you had a question in there. It's probably too late, but I was using an excel spreadsheet, but I found it easier to put everything on fitday.com. It rules.

I took a week off for spring break, and my lifts all nose-dived. I haven't lost any more size though, except for 1" on my gut. It looks like things will work out, but I'm going to have to accept a...

I think this was mentioned already, but I generally only do warmups on a few exercises. I find that once I do the bench presses and the bigger leg lifts, I don't need much more warming up. It helps...

Haven't posted for a while, but I'm still at it. I'm almost through the 10 rep week. It's getting harder, but I'm also not eating as much. I'm tracking everything on fitday and maintaining a 500...

I'm willing to bet that the fats, which are hydrocarbons, are broken down by chemical reaction into constituent parts such as CO2 and water. I don't know much, but I know how I personally get rid of...

~ 5 lbs a month isn't bad at all. I'd say you're being impatient. You're lucky if you can gain on 2400 cals. I sure can't. Be patient.

Day one of 12 rep week is a success. I PRed all my lifts, except bent over rows, because I'm not doing them for a few weeks. I'm going to skip them, and pick back up where I left off on this cycle....

Try flax oil instead.
