When I Started:
Jan, 2008
How I Started:
I've been working out for awhile! Used to play soccer, then once I got a driver's license I started going to the gym. I started the "correct" work-out & diet this January, finally getting into the mindset of what I want to look like and where I want to be!
Plus a loser ex-boyfriend is always a great motivator :-)
It also helps to know the correct way to work-out and eat :-)
Why I Love It:
The way it makes my body look & keeps me out of trouble!
How I Stay Motivated:
Jamie Eason; I hope I don't have to explain that one! :-)
Hey everyone, thanks for the positive and well, "constructive cricism" comments, I really appreciate it. I would like to thank you all individually & I will do my best, but that may take all day, & I actually do have a day job, which gets in the way of that. Nevertheless, thank you and I appreciate it greatly! :-)
P.S. I don't post face pictures because I really don't feel like having my @$$ float around the office for all to see!
BB Accomplishments:
Sticking to the grueling cycle!

I am not working out for YOU, I am doing it for myself and myself only. We all have different tastes and what we find attractive, there is no need to insult or make deragatory comments to anyone. Be happy with yourself, everyone else doesn't matter.

Okay, so here is the WAAAAY before, January. This is where it all started....~22% bf, 125 lbs. I worked out, but still ate whatever and drank. Not too fond of this picture...but this is strictly to show that I have busted my @$$! :-)
1. Need to learn how to use my Digital Camera
2. I think my thighs are massive! I gotta make 'em stop growing & somehow just get them more CUT! Grrrrr!
For building muscle: 4 sets of no more than 10 reps (heavy)
For defining the muscle: 3-4 sets of 15-20 reps (lighter - but still a challenge)

How long do you rest between sets on average? Why?
Depends on the muscle group, 30-45 sec avg, I try not to let my heart rate drop too much since I don't do much cardio.

What mistakes did you make when you first started working out?
I thought the more I work-out & the less I eat, the more weight I will lose....BOY was I wrong! I eat for a family of five now & work-out a 3rd of the time!
Okay, SERIOUSLY, I CANNOT lower my bf% anymore, my body is just refusing to! Instead, I freaking gain 3 pounds?! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....................... ..! This is the type of morning I hate to start with, knowing I've been working hard as ever for the last couple of months &...
Alright, I get asked this VERY frequently, so I am posting it here, so it may save us all some time! :-)
I work out 6 days a week, 3-4 exercises per muscle group. I vary my sets/reps every couple weeks to change it up (I get bored easy); I also change my weight accordingly. I do lots...
hahahaahhaah
I just red your comment abt your thighs...
I got the same problem! If I do legs I cant fit in my jeans so I just dont do them...They get kick and shape from cardio and thats it...
Hey Powerhouse...Long time no see!!
If you got time or want to know what's going on read my last blog...I explain everything!!
Keep at it for u look great and stay in touch, will ya???LOL
