HI !!! Im new to this sight, I was just recruited by my long-time friend and trainer... MIKE P.T. Im 22 y/o female- Ive been avidly working out for about two years- I've lot about 40 lbs during this time- no to mention I've put on a significant amount of muscle. I work out about 5 days a week- I weight train and run, mostly. Sometimes i switch it up and try and take some aerobic classes- like spinning- when I can. I'm hoping to meet some new people and share pics-tips- whatever!!!!!

BTW - if any platinum members can help her post some pics she would really appreciate it.

Welcome!

You don't have to be Platinum to post pics.

Here's how to do it:

You have to have the pics saved on your computer.

Click on your Gallery, then Upload a Picture.

Browse the list until you find where on your harddrive the picture is stored.

Upload the pictures. They will now be in your Gallery, but non-Platinums will only see thumbnails.

To put larger pictures in a thread:

Open the picture in your Gallery.
Right Click, scroll down to Properties.
Highlight the http address and Copy it.
Start a new Thread, click the IMG button, then paste the address in the box.

Got it?

Shedding off the pumpkin pie

Hey Ladies !!!

Thanks for all the support
After all this gym talk, I woke up this morning extremely amped for the gym. It was my cardio day today and rather that running my usual 3 1/2 miles..... I RAN 6 1/4 MILES !!!!!
I couldn't believe myself!!!! Today was the best running day I have probably ever had - And I needed it after all the pumpkin pie I ate last week.. I've been feeling like a cow. I found some pics to post (even a few of me n Mikey at the gym),... I'll probably post them next week after my final exams ......... THANKS AGAIN

Hope that 6 1/4 miles is on a track and not a treadmill. If your running on a treadmill then try running on a track you'll notice a huge difference.

Yes, it IS harder to run on a track or outside than on a treadmill. But, she almost doubled the amount she was previously capable of doing. That means she is finding ways to push herself past what she originally thought was her limit - a terrific thing no matter what.

We can't reach our goals unless we find a way to push past what we THINK are our limits.

Re: Re: Re: Shedding off the pumpkin pie

The progress she is making is great. I just think its misleading to refer the treatmill to miles ran. On the treadmill I prefer to use the time and the speed as a mark of progress. Its more accurate.


But the progress is always good.
