It was not... But I might try that soon.

I weighed in at 133 this week. Same as last week. I lifted monday and Tuesday. Wednesday the weight room was closed and they scheduled wet, muddy baseball yesterday and today so no lifting. Just running and maybe 50 pushups and situps.

I have been wanting the lift forever now. I made an All that remains and Lamb of god CD called "mycokerewards". It is an inside thing on the name, but I think anyone will admit it's a cool CD name.

246 this morning. Not really going anywhere. I guess I will have to start walking at 5:00 a.m. on Monday.

Where is everyone? I hangcleaned 135 today. That's a plate for you. I weighed the same, 133.

Great job!!!! I always had trouble with that lift. It has a lot to do with speed and technique. I had neither. Keep up the good work.

Here are all of the contestants so far of the muscle gaining team!. (all the young pups!)
• MetalMan
• Metallover



Now each team needs a captain!.. Someone who will oversee the weekly progress and publicly (bitchout the no shows) this is called Accountability!!!! The team captain will also be reasonable to posting the progress as well, this is called (giving acknowledgement)

If nobody wants to do this for the weight loss team I’ll do it!,

[B]Strength building team needs to pick there own captain and come up with there own way of dealing with it!..

I suggest that we (weight loss team) start this Friday! and post our results next Friday!. personally I’ve been on my on program for the last few weeks but others are just starting off..


Accountability!!!!
Here’s the best way I know to do this!.. We’ll need to post once a week (I suggest every Friday!) we post what / how we did that week for the group review and comments… nothing to elaborate. How much exercise we accomplished, weigh your self’s before and after each week post results.

Come on everyone, either post your progress or a reason you aren't posting. There's no reason to give up!

I know I havent posted yet, but I havent really had a whole lot of time to do anything. I know this is a pathetic excuse, but school was crazy last term with homework so I never really had time to devote to a workout. But with this new trimester, I will be able to start. I have access to our schools weightroom during third hour, so I will be able to lift during the day and run when I get home.

How does this sound for a lifting plan?

Alternate every day (Mon-Fri)

Day A: bench press, hang cleans, tricep curls, bicep curls
Day B: squats, dead lift, abs

Every day: Run on treadmill for 30 mins @home
Saturdays: run for 30 mins on treadmill, abs, push ups
Sundays: rest

I think this, eating less, and drinking more water will help me lose some weight.

What do you guys think?

That sounds like a good plan. Whatever you do make sure to stick with it. I'm glad you're joning in. I would recommend running outside if you can vs a tredmill. It will accomplish the same purpole however. Good luck and glad to see you hop in!

Thanks for the encouragement! The weather here is still kind of iffy, so I think I will stick with the treadmill for the next couple of weeks and then start running outside.

I know that I also need to eat healthier. Is cutting out the junk food and drinking more water enough, or do I need to do more?

What I did for eating is that I started eating more fruits and vegetables and tried to cut off junk food. I'll post some tables from the first pages that can give you some more info. I've always drank lots of water, so I can't change that. Getting lots of sleep helps general help, as does drinking lots of water. I haven't had a hint of a cold for over a year now.

Try a routine like this:
Monday : Chest and Triceps
Tuesday: Shoulders and Biceps
Wednesday: Legs and Cleans
Thursday: Triceps, Biceps, and Light bench
Friday: Back and deadlifts
Staurday and Sunday: off

I've used this with every body that I've trained and it gives you plenty of time for recovery. Quick results if you go at it hard. Pick three exercises per body part. Sets should be 3 to 4 with reps between 8 and 10. On the big lifts such as bench, squat, deadlifts, and cleans do 4 sets of 5 reps.
Me and my father have owned Tad's Gym in Lancaster, SC for 20+ years now. Job and family make it hard for me to get there now.

Thanks AP. I just noticed your user name, do you work for the College Board that administers the AP exams?
