Hello, guys. Can you tell me, are you fond of some sport? Can you get the relaxation and some pleasure of this? I am interested in doing some sport, but I really don't like hard trainings in the gym. I am thinking to start from joga. And what do you think about this occupation? Can you share some information over joga?

Hi, I have been lifting weights since summer 2000. I started with 4 sets of 10 reps of about 10-15 basic exercises. Then around 2003, I tried a list of exercises from Arnold Schwarzeneggers Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding. I started doing 10, 8, 6, 4 reps. In the last year, I did a 3 bodypart program per day, for 4 days a week that allows 48 hours recovery per bodypart. Right now, I am trying high rep from about 10-20. I have never trained high rep before. I am trying to improve muscular endurance and recruit more fibers. I am thinking of using my basic 4 day bodypart plan and just do whatever exercise I feel like that falls under part category. Then I would vary my exerci…

As suggested, I'm going to start a journal. Recently I have harvested inspiration from Marvel vs Capcom 3 chicks. My husband always tells me they're muscular because they're "drawn that way" but perhaps I can draw my own muscles wish a pen made of protein and ink made of lactic acid and sweat. DISCLAIMER: I'm not completely vegan. Yesterday... Breakfast: leftovers (it was uh... this something that I made: whole wheat pasta with lentils, mixed veggies, seitan, and flavorful additives of course) snack: fruit and nut bar (I am what I eat) with a chocolate banana coconut strawberry hemp protein shake and multigrain Cheerios lunch: more leftovers dinner: veggie wrap (wheat f…

Everything can either have a good or bad side, but let us focus on the good side alone. Hiring cheap assignment writing services will not only save you time, but you can spend this time on many other productive things. You will have an assignment worth securing an A+ at a very reasonable price. When comparing disadvantages, there may be little to no value. While working on many things, it will not be easy for you as you have to work on class tasks, assignments, as well as other activities.

New blog instead of training journal, so I can post periodically in regards to my journey as a vegan in the mainstream world of Modeling, Competing & Personal Training. Staying busy doing the above as well as articles for mags and of course running a household Background for those who are new, I have competed in 9 shows in figure, fitness model and bikini. I am 100% natural and tend to stick to shows that are both drug tested and polygraphed. My journey has been incredible thus far and I feel so blessed to be doing what I love and helping others to reach their goals. I'm a single Mom and have had 5 children, I'm now 38 and was 184 after my last child at on 5'…

I have posted my background and health concerns in other forums on this site. Please refer to them in the Introduction Forum and the Bodybuilging & Strength Forum. But briefly I'll review them. Last February I began to experience pain and great difficulty urinating. I was sent to the ER by my GP. At that time they found a blocked kidney stone but more importantly a large mass in my lower colon/prostate area. Long story short, after a colonoscopy found no cancer in my colon, the Doctor did find a large mass protruding/pressing into the colon track that my blocking my ability to defecate also. My prostate was very enlarged. I went to a Urologist and had two operations (…

I'm back! We switched servers for the past 15 months, and the forum disappeared. I thought it was gone forever, but we had it restored and it appears to be back in action. I've trained 8 of the past 10 days, and I figure I can start to log my workouts here like I did in the old days. Our first forum was created in 2003, and this version of the forum came along in 2005, nearly 15 years ago! Wow! Time sure flies. It's good to be back. I'll update this soon.......

It's hard to tell which shoes are more comfortable. There are a bunch of factors that can influence the comfort of a shoe, but I'll focus on the most significant ones. The material of the upper: leather and suede tend to be more comfortable than synthetic materials like canvas and nylon. The leather upper on your favorite pair of sneakers probably ranks high on your list of favorite features. The arch support: if you have wide feet, you want shoes with a lot of support in the arch area. If you're more average-sized, you might need to look for shoes with less support. The wider your feet are, the higher up in the arch region you'll want to look for comfort. …

Hey all, So time to get serious about this training. Joined the Gym a couple months ago, however have been going pretty infrequently (prolly 1.5 a week average). Have had a weird elbow soreness since the start of gym that has knocked my confidence a bit (normally I get random sore things and it goes away). Think I might go get it checked out at Physio later this week. Background: Played sports plenty in school days, golfer and rugby player. Since Uni, have played sports casually every now an again, but nothing regular. Played poker during Uni so that along with beers meant I got a bit of a beer gut. Finished Uni, straight into work force, went for runs occasionally. …

Hello All, So I have been vegan for about 1.5 years. I love the lifestyle, but still struggle with how to properly balance my diet. My physical gains have slowed dramatically since my crossover and I cannot figure out what the deal is! Ok, part of it is that I bake too often! (Vegan of course) So here's what I ate today (i'm being honest about the X-mas cookie splurge) Breakfast: Vega sport performance protein with water, 1 cup blueberries Snack(post-workout): Vegan sport protein with water, 1 rice cake, unsalted Lunch: Seitan and carrot souffle. 2 Xmas cookies Snack: vega sport perf. protein with water, 1 xmas cookie Dinner: Brussel sprouts sauteed in olive o…

If we all went vegan, the world's food-related emissions would drop by 70% by 2050 according to a recent report on food and climate in the journal Proceedings of National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The study's authors from Oxford University put the economic value of these emissions savings at around £440 billion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN7JMuv-o9I

Louisiana is hurting! They are currently holding an emergency civil service exam for firefighters/ police. So I am turning in an application.

Okay, first a little about me... I come from an endurance sports background, mainly triathlon/cycling/running. Some of my achievements are: ** Numerous 5, 10 and 15km road races ** 30+ half marathons (PB 1:36 and a heart attack midway through the race) ** 10 full marathons (PB 3:54) ** 2 offroad ultramarathons I competed in my first powerlifting meet back in 2004, I won the U100kg class. I have competed a few times since then, also winning all of them apart from one shocker where I bombed out on the squats This year I plan to carry on much the same, just winning what I can! I'll write up my training from about a month ago so you get the idea of what I do…

So, here goes...I'm joining the masses in blogging my progress! I've been doing this weight lifting thang for about 3 weeks and already have (for me) amazing results! I've doing a combination of gym and home..I've been a bit unwell and going through a whole load of asthma tests and suffering with nasty chest infections. Royal pain in the behind to be honest as I feel it's held me back from making the amount of progress I could have done by now. So, went to the gym yesterday and got my current stats, they're not toooo bad: weight: 44.6kg height: 5' 2.1" (the 0.1 matters!!) or 1.58m BMI: 17.9 Body fat % 26.3 (this is disappointing, especially as I'm considered underweig…

Heavygan: Because there shouldn't be a pause between the words "heavy" and "vegan" when you think about lifting weights. For the last year, I've continuously kept some form of a training log going - either with handwritten notes compiled into a binder or, more recently, in the form of a tumblr-log that complements my actual blog, Vegan Atlas (they're both linked in my signature if anybody's interested). However, since tumblr doesn't really make discussion and feedback super easy, I've decided to cross post my log on this forum and in my tumblr-log. Anyway. While I don't want to just jump into logging, and I wrote a really long and involved "introduction" to my tumblr…

I'm finally taking the time to digitize my workouts thanks to Marcella's shining example. I'm now 5 WEEKS OUT from my first contest so this record will come in handy in the future . I've just loaded all my routines onto my smartphone app and will begin posting them soon! I'm a show off by nature so hopefully this will keep me honest and get me some great gains!
