C'mon dude, Lift It! Lift it...That's It!

OK, since the end is here, I decided to change my avi. I've also decided as soon as I get back from CO, I will be starting a new journal....so look for it on Wednesday, next week probably!

It has been fun competing with you guys! I would like to do it again sometime - if everyone is up for it?

Fitgirl70 · 08-31-2006, 12:40 PM

Also:
Here is beginning weight/measurements 6/16/06:
Weight: 130
Waist: 29
Hips: 36
Chest: 38
Quads: 20
Calves: 13 1/2
Biceps: 11 1/2

Here is now 8/31/06:
Weight: 121
Waist: 27
Hips: 33
Chest: 36
Quads: 20
Calves: 13
Biceps: 11

There doesn't appear to be much change in the measurements of the quads, calves and biceps. However, I think I just replaced fat with muscle. I think the beginning pics and the end pics show just that.

I'll tell ya one thing, I'm glad this contest is over now before I go to CO and completely blow the whole thing!!

b_reed23 · 08-31-2006, 01:45 PM

I decided to post my after pics in here....I'm a bit bloated cause I had Mexican food for lunch

Fitgirl70 · 08-31-2006, 01:53 PM

I soooooo totally think you've won!!!

Let me see if I can upload mine...

Fitgirl70 · 08-31-2006, 02:04 PM

Billie, you have totally made a change!

Fitgirl70 · 08-31-2006, 02:05 PM

Here's a few: I'll see if I can upload a couple of before pics too!

here's now:

Fitgirl70 · 08-31-2006, 02:06 PM

here's one more that I couldn't upload w/ the others:

boilermaker · 08-31-2006, 02:10 PM

Wow!!!! You gals did a great job of seeing it through

You should both be real proud. I know I'm proud of you both.

I weighd in at 196 this morning. Not much of an improvement, but I'm on the right track. Just spun my wheels for a couple of months too long to have a chance. I'm not posting any other pics or stats because Arch doesn't want to look at me and really, there is no change. Only thing is I went up in bf the first two months and have managed to get back a little below where I started in the last one.

Again, congrats. Looking forward to delivering my prize

Fitgirl70 · 08-31-2006, 02:12 PM

Not yet, Not yet.

Fitgirl70 · 08-31-2006, 02:16 PM

Oh, here is one more tricep. Now here's the question of the day. Anyone wanna tell me why I've got monster triceps and my shoulders REFUSE to come up?

I work them, but to no avail!

Anyone have any tricks I could try?

DOMS · 08-31-2006, 03:32 PM

What have you tried so far?

Fitgirl70 · 08-31-2006, 03:40 PM

Well, what do you mean? Exercises? 'Cause I've tried it all! Lots of lateral raises, front raises, Arnold presses, regular military presses...etc...

Other than getting implants or injecting with oil...I think I've tried it all!

Why types of methodologies? Mixture of rep ranges, RI, superset, etc.?

b_reed23 · 09-01-2006, 01:38 AM

Tammy...you need to share the secret on how to pose to get your triceps to show....cause I don't know how to pose at all

Pylon · 09-01-2006, 07:11 AM

I ended 8 lbs lighter than the start. Not much, but in the right direction. I'll get measurements later.

Triple Threat · 09-01-2006, 09:43 AM

Well, after viewing all the pics recently posted, I have only one thing to say.

Archangel · 09-02-2006, 10:31 AM

Devlin · 09-02-2006, 07:36 PM

I've gone light for more reps, heavier w/ 10-15 reps, name it! Supersets, yep.

I apparently haven't figured out what will work....do you have any suggestions? I'm willing to try anything
