    my first public log

    Leg day leg day leg day! 12/21/2016 I decided to try some deadlifts for the first time in forever! Thinking I was still Crossfitting I went for the gusto at 225. One sorry rep....LOL! So i bumped it down to 185. I also did my squats in the regular squat rack, not on the Smith, because I am...

    Workout log 12/20/2016 Push day H.S. 1,2 and 3 are all chest presses working lower, mid, and upper pecs. I don't do bench press because it compromises my shoulder.

    my first public log

    This weekend kind of got me out of synch because we traveled to DAllas to do a family thing. My food was pretty good tho, even at the party I didn't eat a ton of crap (just a little crap! LOL). I didn't drink at all so that helped a lot. Friday I didn't do my Pull workout but Saturday I hit and...

    Mitral valve insufficiency

    I have a heart valve issue too. It started bothering me in my 30s and now I am in my 50s. I don't take anything for it as it only bothers me when I am dehydrated or am not getting enough minerals (CMPK). It also gives me a lot of grief when I am super stressed out, which thankfully isn't very...

    my first public log

    because i am too lazy to type the recipe out--here it is! I doubled it so it would fit in an 8 x 8 pan. I also used honey instead of artificial sweetener.

    my first public log

    12/14/2016 Today was Push day: chest, shoulders, triceps. DH was working out too so I ended up doing a few sets of somethings he wanted to do for fun in addition to my usual. BTW, there are 3 Hammer Strength (HS) machines i use for chest designated #1, #2, #3. They work mid, lower, and upper...

    golfer's elbow/tennis elbow

    Ok, so i was having a serious issue with golfer's elbow and tennis elbow about 6-8 weeks ago. It was so bad i could only do light weights when i did BB curls and forget doing pullups--it was the pulling movements that REALLY inflamed the golfers elbow. I rehabbed it using thera-bands and...

    my first public log

    Ok, so yesterday was an off day. I was going to do some cardio and abs, but i realized that cardio is self-defeating at this point so I just skipped it. MY food intake was good, and I made this really awesome flourless carrot cake out of Quest protein powder! Yum! I don't really have much of a...

    my first public log

    I appreciate all the input. Yeah, i knew my tattoos might be an issue, even if i go with a super dark tan. it makes me sad. I will take Flyingdragon's advice and maybe try to talk to some judges. I'm not going to stop training tho, not matter what. I guess I don't even think about my ink. It's...

    my first public log

    Ok, I posted this on another forum, but i had requests to post here as well, so here I go. I am embarking on a 12-week cycle of NPP, @ 25 mg e3d if I can tolerate the sides. I am also still taking birth control pills for HRT (combo pill) and use 15 mg of test cyp every 10 days for my sex drive...

    Cycle Question and Older Women

    Ok, I will. Like I said, my life has been a rollercoaster both business/personal-wise for the last couple months but now it's settled down and i can focus. I think creating a log will help me have a reason for staying focused too! That said, now that i have done a fair amount of research, I see...

    Cycle Question and Older Women

    hey WLifts!! I am going to start on Sunday I guess. I might make a workout log etc. on Meso just to keep me on track. I've had a rough last couple months but things are looking up now.

    Cycle Question and Older Women

    I don't post on here often, but i am 54 and have done two Primo cycles and am fixin to start an NPP cycle. I have been using around 15-20 mg of test c every 2 weeks for a while now for self-administered TRT (i do bloods) for my sex drive. I am also still taking estrogen/progesterone birth...

    reducing cholesterol

    He's inconsistent on the fish oil. I'll try to get him to be more consistent. He's avoiding statins if he can get it under control naturally

    reducing cholesterol

    Ok, my husband got a cholesterol/wellness test done and his is way too high with his LDL especially too high. His HDL/LDL ratio is awful. He has eaten clean for many years and we do not eat any saturated or trans fats (exception being the odd bit of bacon here and there), keep red meat to a...

    HGH and tiredness

    thank you for the responses. My husband also started with the same amount and it did not affect him that way at all, interestingly enough. He's 11 years younger than me though so that may have something to do with it.
