So been busy with work but still up on training. Today I have lost my appetite as I found out a dear friend of mine committed suicide last night although no one is answering my questions. I don't know how true it is so keeping my eyes open. Even joking about it kills my appetite. I literally had lunch ready to eat found out and put it in the fridge..... So if it turns out to be true I am going to do a show in her honor since that was one of the last things we ever talked about together.

Not going to stop as long as I can help it. Everything is slowly starting to get back to normal just a quiet lil church mouse on the posting front.

Is it cooler up in your neck of the woods? Temps and humidity are down here so I might actually get to enjoy a walk today with my pup. How is the back feeling? I am passed due on a massage and will be booking me one for next week. I know my back and shoulders are all tight and knotted up.

Yes I pulled out the bikini today too and laid out for about 20 min Jealous about the massage... My back is so neglected

At the gym. changing up every workout, 6 days a week only because legs day either my quads are sore or my hamstrings are so going to isolate them. Looking back at some logged workouts I see my numbers have really jumped. Like benching 135 lbs unassisted now Here is today's back workout: Straight arm pulldown: 1 set 30 lbs 20 reps 5 sets 50 lbs 12 reps Wide grip pulldown: 4 sets 75 lbs 12 reps Low row: 1 set 45 lbs 12 reps 3 sets 55 lbs 12 reps Underhand pulldown: 1 set 60 lbs 12 reps 2 sets 75 lbs 12 reps 1 set 90 lbs 12 reps Seated cable rows: 1 set 75 lbs 12 reps 2 sets 90 lbs 12 reps 1 set 105 lbs 12 reps Narrow grip pulldown: 4 sets 45 lbs 12 reps 1 arm dumbbell row: 2 sets 40 lbs 12 reps 2 sets 45 lbs 10 reps For some reason the weight seemed heavy at first and then light so kept upping my weight and kept the reps the same so I could work on form.

My funds are extremely limited for a bit longer. So homemade fruit leather or plain fruit is my only option at the moment. I don't complain either

Never stopped lifting. Just haven't logged it. Making some post workout fruit leathers for the days I can't make it straight home to eat.

Hey Gaia! I went to a show last month here in the MO/KS area and wasn't impressed with what I saw. NPC and the figure could of passed for bikini and the bikini well they were just soft and extra jiggly Only a few were spot on. I really don't think the guys were even ready.

Ok gonna start making my way back home. Has been a tough year or so with my old job and adjusting/settling into my new job. I have missed you all!!!

Been ok. been busy with house remodeling

Yeah I need to buy some new inserts for certain. Just takes time and patience

Not sure. No insurance to see a Dr so basically assuming plantar fasciitis. Some days better than others but stretchingthem out helps and need to get back into yoga but I work during the yoga classes...

Weights only right now. Trying to let my feet heal up. Got so bad it hurt to walk. I now work in a gym in the daycare section and no longer work in a nursing home. Trying to also get my weight back under control.

Had been put on hold. Quit my job and only working part time so can't afford to go yet.

I am super excited. Might have to throw out hey wanna meet for dinner and beer to everyone over in Europe. Plan on being there for 3 weeks and would love to meet some of my fellow lifters!

Ireland, Scotland, England, Netherlands, Switzerland, and either Greece or Italy

Nice set up!

Goin on 2 diets.... One ties into the other lol. Cutting my spending down to save for a trip to Europe (been a dream to go for a long time and saying to hell with it I am ready to go) so by cutting expenses my meals take a hit too. Thank god for cheap rice and beans!!! This next year should be loads of fun.....

Well from a female point of view VIKING ALL THE WAY!!!!! I love manly Viking beards if they ever come to my town I will be there

Oh been around. Between sleeping, training and work I am lucky to find time for me lol. I pop in as often as I can though love the pics

Beautiful pics man! I am in awe

Fucking hell man I am jealous!!! I love Amon Amarth!!!!

Lookin good man!!! Popping by to say hi and check in on ya

Ok went straight barbell for deadlifts today. Been using a functional lifting apparatus and straps to get heavy lifts. No chalk, no straps just me the weights and barbell. I still got 200 lbs next week I will bump my weight up. Trainer really setting my workouts up for extra heavy lifting. I am not complaining at all. I love pushing myself. So I guess this spring I might be competing......

No... Was pretty dead when I did it. Most if the guys there know I am a bitch to fear lol. At the powerlifting meet I watched there was only 1 chick that could out lift me as of right now. I will go up against her in day!!!!!! Yeah I get competitive lol
