So, good for you girl, and just keep the good attitude and keep doing whatever you are doing, IT'S WORKING FOR YOU! :bigthumbu
Hope your Weekend was a Good One D.

Yup, thanks hun... I'm just happy they actually noticed a difference! I mean on the scale I've lost about 4lbs (mostly water weight from a carb up day)...and 1lb to bring me down finally to 157lbs. That's just what I get from the scale. Measurement wise my waist is getting smaller...and who knows from where else I've lost? EEK!!

I haven't measured myself completely yet.

I know body composition has definitely changed and that's what I'm mostly happy about. :winkthumb

Brenda thanks for your support, encourgegment and compliments you are a true sweetheart.

LoL Well I can't tell you how much I look forward to bulking in Dec. I'm thinking a mini bulk for myself. I do know what you mean though. It's like all this work to lose fat and then to put it on again.LoL You are putting on muscle though so it's all worth it to 'fight' all over again and lose the extra fat lbs. :winkthumb

Besides you'll still be sexy to me. :wub:

Kick ass! Your going to be a fitness model in no time!

One observation, how come you can do Pull ups at 156 for multi reps but you only use 80-90lbs for your lat pulldowns? :confused2 Seems like your going easy on yourself in your pulldowns.

Funny you ask that cause I thought the same thing today. Weird huh?

I'm not sure why...maybe it's cause I do them second to pull-ups and my arms are tired by then?? I'll try it the other way around next time?

Then again I'm also doing less weight on my lat pull down cause my right shoulder starts giving me pain so I'm also taking it easy. That's my excuse for now!! :p LoL

That very well could be especially since you follow the one with the other and they work the exact same muscle group. If you want to keep both split them up by putting the seated rows in the middle and maybe change the pulldowns to a different grip by going close grip to hit your back at a different angle. http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/...pPulldown.html

dnyc99 · 10-03-2005, 10:12 PM

Cool. :winkthumb

I'll try that next time.

The Lat pulldowns I do are:Cable Rear Pulldowns.

RealFantasy · 10-04-2005, 03:05 AM

Good Going D!!! :bigthumbu It's working now, and that's what you wanted, I am glad for you!

Thanks for the support, I needed that right now! I am in a slump from hell, and believe me I am trying my best to rethink my stupid thoughts! :confused2
