Have you ever had a lifting injury?
Yes
What type of injury was it? How long were you injured? How did you recover?
i blew out my t1 rib on my left side while using a cable chest press machine. my own fault: i pushed out with my left shoulder, lifting it off the bench. the deep tissue muscle that conjoins the bicep and the pectoral muscle underneath spent the next two hours trying to pull my rib back in (waiting to see a chiropractor) and subsequently i ended up with a lot of deep tissue bruising. it took the better part of 8 weeks to fully heal without fear of reinjury.i blew out my t1 rib on my left side while using a cable chest press machine. my own fault: i pushed out with my left shoulder, lifting it off the bench. the deep tissue muscle that conjoins the bic...more

You definitely have to put some pics up with your suits on, I bet they look great! Yeah, Im already learning alot from the trainer and I have only been with her twice so far. Today was legs day and they are on FIRE! But its good, I like it.
wow! Only 3 weeks? Anxious to know how it goes and see some pics? Did you make your own suit? Things are going ok with me I guess they could be better. I started working with a personal trainer on Monday and it was intense.
Hey there, thanks for the congrats:) I'll definitely be at the show on the 15th hopefully this time I'll get a chance to talk to yea;) good luck! see yea then
Sunshine, if I could look as good as you... I'd be doing kick ass! Thanks for all of your help and inspiration! I definately couldn't have started this without you!
Thanks Karin I know I can count on you go keep me straight.I really getting hard up Im going to focus and keep my head up because I really want to change.How's things going with you?
Hey girl! How's it going? Your probably going to ask me the same question and the answer is "hard". Im starting to get tired of the food and I know its only been a month but right now it seems hopeless :(
