Something disturbingly different for C&C - let's talk about "working out"!!

ksharp01 said:
I appear to be having trouble getting rid of my soft spots on my sides :( Very fustrated!! I am feeling and seeing a difference everywhere but there it appears. Just gotta keep pluggin away at my diet and I have recently increased cardio by including a spin class once to twice a week. Thinking about also getting into more classes...maybe the gutbuster class :worried:
I so need to get me a trainer!! But the one at my gym, well....not so sure about him..used him twice and he didn't prove to be very helpful.


Honestly, you have a WEALTH of knowledge and experience here at EF that makes ANY trainer seem useless (even though that is not hard to do...). Read, read, read, search, read, ask, read more and then do.

are you doing any weight training?
 
i've been lifting for about a month after taking a long ass break from it....longer than I'd care to mention. So, I'm feeling pretty awesome...strength is coming back quickly. I do a DFHT type routine.

I'll probably post some pics in a few weeks, once I lose a bit of the winter insulation.
 
Does "working out" mean taking stuff from your job and completing it outside or something?

That's what got me coming here....someone at my gym recommended to me. I have learned so much but it is one thing to read it and having someone there at the gym to tell you what machines do what and how to use them. I find I steer away from some because I'm just not sure.
I have learned tons of things I didn't know from the women fitness forum. I am getting there like I said, just not as fast as I had hoped and I plan on posting pics (before & after) in about a month or so. I will be where I wanna come bikini weather!!! :)
 
Can I take steroids without working out at all? Oh and can I drink winny?
 
Things are, for the most part going well - in the gym six days a week with zero motivational issues. In fact I have to force myself to take that seventh day off. But my quest for the perfect butt is more difficult than anticipated. I find myself relying on my quads for almost every exercise designed to - at least in part - work the glutes and I feel like nothing is getting done no matter how much I try and "concentrate" on isolating/using my glutes. I learned how to squat recently (please don't laugh), but I am too much of a wimp to try and use the rack at the gym in the midst of all the beefcakes three times my size lifting hundreds of pounds. I know it's ridiculous, but I can be shy even if I could get past the embarrassment over the weight I'd be lifting, the idea of doing an exercise that involves thrusting my heiny out in the middle of all that testosterone makes me blush. I just need to suck it up and get over it.
 
I am redefining my goals right now. No competitions for me in the near future my body needs a break from extreme cutting so I am going at a slower pace. I been following a split since January that a trainer put together for me but started to deviate from it yesterday. I rack dead lifted for the first time since December made some serious PR’s yesterday
225 x 12 <<<< could have done 20 of these was shocked how easy it went up
275 x 8
295 x 3 <<< I might have gotten more reps but Ik new I wanted to try 315
315 x 2 <<<< If someone would have been watching I might have done one more. I need a cheering section.
