I'm still shaking typing this so i guess it was a good one What is up with EVERYONE doing chest on mondays though??

Didn't you know..... Monday is international chest day!

Hahaha well that's how it's been at every other gym...for some reason ours seems to be leg day on mondays. But i was there earlier than usual today and i guess that crowd sticks to chest too. It's okay...they knew to get out of my way

[gbrice75]

Haha and i bet you're getting completely different results now too huh! I know that's what happened to me!

Yup!! I was stale and basically stayed the same for 2 years... up a few lbs, down a few lbs, but always wound up looking the same in the end. Then when I got serious, I looked totally different after 12 solid weeks.

Haha yeah i love that thing. If i'm doing steady state i'll usually do level 9. But i love running on it, 1 minutes level 20 then one minute level 1. That will definitely get my heart rate super high very quickly and after 20 minutes i'll feel like passing out. Oh and no holding on either! That's cheating lol!

Same here with level... depending on how I feel that day it's anywhere between 8-10, and it's the only machine I like using the programs on. I've done intervals on it like that too (not level 20 though, sick!!), brutal! No hands???!! Ok, I'll admit I hold on, the entire time... for dear life!

Omg we must go to the same gym! Idiots EVERYWHERE. It's entertaining to watch from far away, annoying when they're using MY equipment...

Lmao, we must!! And yea, nothing pisses me off more than when some 130lb shitbag is doing curls in MY squat rack lol!

That's a very good point. I should do that. Although i just ordered 2 5-lb tubs of whey yesterday. So...guess when i'm out i'll be switching.

You can always buy some casein and do 1/2 scoops of each until the straight whey runs out. 10lbs will take a while though!

You know i totally agree actually, I think i like the idea that my beloved rice cakes are doing me good. I think i might train just for my postworkout meal sometimes lmao! But i'm gonna drop them starting now (works out since i dont have any!), i just got home from training and drinking my shake. Then it's a huge bowl of broccoli and some salmon

Don't get me wrong, the rice cakes are probably fine. We were talking about simple sugars i.e. fruits and such - you can keep the fruit, just add complex carbs to the meal - rice cakes will do.

I'm gonna do that tonight! And thanks for all your help! That's way more than i was expecting!

You're welcome!

I'll post some! Gotta figure out how haha! I'm new to this whole forum thing...but i definitely want some feedback so i'm gonna take some!

Use the 'go advanced' button, then there's an 'attach' button within that editor. Let me know if you can't figure it out.

What is up with EVERYONE doing chest on mondays though??

My theory: most people dread going to the gym, and just like going to work, it's worst on Monday's. Since chest is considered by most to be a favorite body part to train, it makes sense that it'd happen on Monday. When I used to train single bodypart split style, I always did chest on Monday's too, and I love the gym!

It's okay...they knew to get out of my way

Grrrr!!!

That's awesome! Yeah i decided i didn't wanna be one of those ppl who were in the gym every day (sometimes twice a day!) and never looked any different! That has to be so frustrating, what a waste of time too lol!

Same here with level... depending on how I feel that day it's anywhere between 8-10, and it's the only machine I like using the programs on. I've done intervals on it like that too (not level 20 though, sick!!), brutal! No hands???!! Ok, I'll admit I hold on, the entire time... for dear life!

You should try it! You actually have to run on it. There's no way i could just "walk up" that fast. And use your arms to give you momentum. At first i held on, then one hand, then no hands. I love it!

Lmao, we must!! And yea, nothing pisses me off more than when some 130lb shitbag is doing curls in MY squat rack lol!

Hahaha that was me last night! Although they were doing pullups...there's like 20 other places to do those! I can't squat anywhere else damnit! They moved...

You can always buy some casein and do 1/2 scoops of each until the straight whey runs out. 10lbs will take a while though!

Yeah i buy it online and usually get 2 tubs at a time. But honestly i use it a lot so it doesn't last me THAT long. I eat it dry too...haha i know that's weird but i love it.

Don't get me wrong, the rice cakes are probably fine. We were talking about simple sugars i.e. fruits and such - you can keep the fruit, just add complex carbs to the meal - rice cakes will do.

Oh ok! I do wish i could do oats since it's probably my favorite thing to eat but that's kinda hard without a microwave...thinking sweet potatoes maybe.

I kinda figured it out. But maybe bc my pics are too big it gives me a failed upload message? I'll try re-sizing them.

It's actually my least favorite...probably cause i'm a girl and getting huge pecs isn't really my main goal lol! So what kind of split do you do now?
