Ok my mistake sugazombie. I didnt read back far enough. Sorry for that.....
Yeah with the straps you have to go overhand.
1700 cant be right even for a zombie sugazombie!LOL
I think one of your sistas put up the calculations to do your cals either here or in sweetteas log. If not let me know and I will figure it for you.

No problem Zed It is quite confusing seeing all my other weights going up and looks like squats are lagging!
Lol this Zombie can eat for fun lol restrictions have to be in place haha.
I will check through the posts see if I can find it.
So just wondered Zed will it be ok to add on my other lifts workout A now just before you mentioned leaving it a wk for squats to catch up? Thanks bro

All you chikas are doing superbly in each of your own rights!
You all are at diff times and places in your training. While it is nice to put up your numbers and it is a must to gauge your progress this is not competition in any way, except that you are competint with yourselves.
So keep those impressive numbers coming and keep those impressive advances running.

Hey D! I saw somewhere on here that you said that you had two gigs..one with alter bridge...alter bridge is one of my favorite bands!! Really like them.
Like black stone cherry or whatever they are called. I hear them on the radio every now and then. I like that style of music. Did they put on good shows? How have you been?

Thats awesome! Id be in heaven listening to all of those bands every time I was at work. I absolutely love music and have to have it in my life!! Love the thought of your job..very cool. I've been good. We took a 10 hour trip to Virginia to visit my mother-in-law. It was a good trip. We are just exhausted now! Well I am at least. Glad to be back. The thought of me going to the gym while out of town didn't go over very well.

Its gonna be interesting to see how long you stay the same with your 3 major lifts. In time I expect to see you kinda peter out on the bench and rows and for your squat to continue to improve 5-10 Lbs/ week.

Bb row


3x5 30k
5x5 60k. 132lb
Started to feel these getting harder my back tries to straighten up more when pulling up trying my hardest to keep leaning to do this I had to slow down lifting
Its ok to bend your knees and put stomach down on your thighs here sugazombie. That should help you some. Thats the nice thing about these rows, they get your from your ass to your trapa. Gr8 excersize!

That's a good guess zed! I was thinkin about peanut butter, blts, 65k worth of Twix bars. Have no clue but I'm
Guessing your guess is closer to right than mine!!

 

[caligirl85]

Ok...here's what I got...based on stats of
5'3"
68 kgs
31 yrs old

Maintenance would sit at 1456.16

But...factor in activity level...

These are their definitions:

1. If you are sedentary (little or no exercise) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.2
2. If you are lightly active (light exercise/sports 1-3 days/week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.375
3. If you are moderatetely active (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.55
4. If you are very active (hard exercise/sports 6-7 days a week) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.725
5. If you are extra active (very hard exercise/sports & physical job or 2x training) : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.9

So...starting with #3

moderate activity would be 2257
very active would be 2548
extra active would be 2766

The sort of "standard" then would be to add in 500 calories for bulking/ take out 500 for cutting BUT personally, I'd start with a little bit lower, especially if you're not already eating at these types of levels. I'd start with 200 extra and go up by 100 increments, depending on my gains. Even just eating at the 2200-2500 is probably a good place to start.

Keep in mind, it's just a guideline and you know your body best!!

Keep working hard!!

Snipes...you and I would get along just fine!! I thought I was the only one that would go to the store and grab a red velvet cake (well you made yours..but you bought another cake at the store) and sit down and literally eat the entire thing. Ok maybe there might be a few crumbs left!! I remember a lady checking me out at the grocery store one day and she said 'oh are you havin a party'...I was like yep..me,myself, and I! She thought I was kidding and told quickly corrected her and told her that I was goin home and eating that cake!

Lol I know it's embarrassing sometimes.. When I first met my ex husband's parents... They cooked a nice steak dinner to impress me... In about two min flat I had finished my 12oz ny strip and was looking around like a vulture for more food... They all looked at me... In fear their own fingers were in danger... And then started teasing me asking if I was pregnant with triplets and that's why he was bringing me home to meet them lol.

I could eat anyone out of house and home... It's a gift haha

That's too funny and way too familiar!! I am always the first one finished eating at my house..everyone else has barely made a dent in there's. For thanksgiving I was the first one finished and still looking around like 'what's next?'

Growing up I ate like a bird and the older I get the more ravenous I get. Plus the more I workout the more I want to eat everything in sight. Good thing my metabolism and yours is running pretty fast! I could easily be an obese person by how much I eat. Not really, id never let myself get that way...but I sure do love some food! It just tastes so dam good!!

Haha that sounds like me last night. Granted I haven't been to the gym in a week so I shouldn't be eating much but...I went to a Japanese steak house with a mens softball team and devoured mine and got the guys leftover proteins. They were in awe that I ate so much. I find it humorous!!

Awesome! Squats seem to be tricky to get the technique right if you don't have someone watching what your doing.

 

[zedhed]

Dang cali! You really rock sista!
Dam nice job on this.

Sugazombie what did you decide for your cals?
Whatever you decided on I think you should be a min of 500 additional cals. Your getting up into some good weights and you really will need those extra cals to build that muscle mass. We may go higher. Dont worry about puttin on a little bit of fat, as we can take care of that later.
So let me know plz.

 

[dmk777]

Hey Zed. Sorry with Cg's help I decided on 2225+ 300 extra just for now and may add more if need be. ATM my appetite is huge so I'm loving it been able to eat big haha. Will It be good to eat pasta nd brown bread etc. thanks bro


Sent from my iPhone

 

[zedhed]

Your already pretty lean sugazombie. If you feel you must then ok at 300. But then in 2 weeks add 200 more to get it up to 500. You will notice the diff very quickly in your workouts. Actually I would rather see you just go to 500 now.

Well I think I could manage that Zed. I'm back on fit day etc to get an idea of what that many cals consists of but yeah I will give it a go. I will let you know how I get on thanks Zed!!

Still slightly feel myself trying to straighten up even with knees bent n tummy to thighs its strange I feel like I need someone to push my back down lol. I still manage the weights but once I get to like 2inchs away from chest that's when I try to straighten lol. So I found if I put my legs further apart it helped !

[zedhed]

LOL sugazombie!
Thats why you see most peeps doing bent over rows almost standing vert.
If your gym has mirrors use them. It helps a lot to actually see what you are doing.
When I do my rows my feet are much wider then my shoulders. And my knees are very bent.
So, when I am reaching down for the bar my back is parallel to the floor. For me this makes easy to hold that position. If I have to lean down to put that weight back on the floor I know I missed that rep.

 

[dmk777]

Yeah I get that I totally found it much easier with the wider stance, And yeah there ain't no getting away from them dam mirrors in there lolo there right round the gym haha . I measured my forearms before and after work out lol just to see how much difference they were pumped lol sad I know but I was intrigued There was an inch difference thats crazy!

Awesome, awesome,awesome job D!!! Fricking great job!! How do you feel?

 

[dmk777]

Ok..so say that again...if you have to lean down to put the weight back on the floor you know you missed that rep...explain please. I think I need better form.

Hey chic I think he means as you put the bar down you still should be in same position you picked it up and if your to high that you have to lean further to put it down somehow you straightened up while lifting which shouldn't happen lol I think that's it anyway lol

Dam dam impressive workout gurl. Nipple shakers for you sugazombie!


Im still afraid that your restricting your food too much. From this point on you need to eat like a hoarse. Keep it clean but EAT it if it isnt nailed down or you are gonna stall out.
Get on 1.5-2 grams of portein per LB of body wieght NOW!

This was really a workout to be proud of gurl!

IM DAM PROUD OF YOU SUGAZOMBIE!!

 

[dmk777]

Thanks Zed much appreciated ......I bought some carbs powder form too that I can add to shakes I had a feeling that It may of been lack of carbs ...I will eat like there is no tomorrow from now on plenty pasta that should do the trick along with oats meat and shakes veg and fruit?
I must admit today was a killer If im honest I am a little disappointed but that makes me more determined to kill it next time .....
Thanks again buddy!!

 

[zedhed]

DONT GET DISSAPOINTED SUGAZOMBIE. Go back and look at where you started! No reason for dissapointment sista!

I think your right on the carbs. For the upcoming workouts you gonna need everything you can get so use it all. Lots and Lots of meat. Meat does wonders gurl. And REST!

 

[dmk777]

Ok I think you right Zed I have come such a long with with help from you guys ! Ok I will do that from now on I love meat so should'nt be a problem lol!

Don't be disappointed D!! You are doin a fabulous job!! You are making great strides and progress!! You are coming along nicely!
One thing y'all have taught me is to be patient and to just keep up
The hard work (poor zed..he's talking to a very hard headed person
When talking to me!!). So, keep your chin up!! Your doing great!! You'll get there!! One step in front of the other and keep walking!!

 

[caligirl85]

Great workout D! Don't be disappointed....you are making great gains. I think a couple weeks into your cycle too, you'll notice those numbers going up more and an increase in strength!

 

[dmk777]

Thanks so much my EF buddy's you made me feel proud and your all right !!
Yeah CG I think I made the right decition to start when I did hopefully next week I will nail that session infact next week I will nail it lol.
I am so proud actually when I think bout it as dead lifts and squats are new to me at the start of 5x5 so I really have came quite far with them.

Thanks again you all rock!!

Sorry I'm
Just seeing this. I just downloaded Rihanna's new cd this weekend!! Haven't even listened to it yet!! I'm takin it's good if that's all you've been listening to!

I didnt have too many plans this past weekend. Went to a guitar recital for my stepson. That's was cool. I love music. I am trying to go through some
Things and pack. I am moving closer to Jen (mobile, al) in January. Graduated college in November and will do my clinicals at some hospitals in mobile for 1 year. Then I will be completely done!! So I'm having to figure out what I'm gonna pack and what I'm gonna leave. Funny thing is though I've already lined up a gym membership down there!! That was my first order of business!! Lol!!

 

[dmk777]

That's the way girl lol prioritys right on!! Haha.
I learned my self some guitar then lost interest as along with work and gym and spending time w my girl I kinda found my self neglecting the guitar do I sold it to a friend someone who will use it!
Think you will enjoy rihannas album I l0ve it.
Good luck w the move babe I feel there's nothing more stressful lol so you will be qualified after your placement?

Got to have your priorities in order!! Good luck with the move. I paid someone to pack me last time. Worth every penny!

 

[dmk777]

Jen lol I like your style paying someone to pack for you haha! Ok I been doing 5x5 8 weeks now!

 

[jennifer778]

Thanks D!! Yep I'm really dreading having to pack up and move and have things in 2 places. Its only 4 hours away from where I live not but not just down the street so it'll definitely be a move. After the year is up I will take a national registry test and become a registered diagnostic sonographer (person who does ultrasounds). I'm excited!

That's cool you played guitar! Way cool. I am self taught on acoustic. Like you I dont play it much right now.

Where'd you meet your girl at? Btw..I like how you say 'wiv Cracks me up each time!!

 

[Jen10]

Jen lol I like your style paying someone to pack for you haha! Ok I been doing 5x5 8 weeks now!

i was way too busy with school and work at the time. and i had some really heavy furniture so it was worth the money in order to spend that time on other things.

 

[dmk777]

Your welcome chic! I bet you are it's such a big step but just think it will be worth it!, and a year will fly over too.
That sound like a great job to get into I bet it's well paid too!.
LOL how clever are we self teaching lol not many people can do that lass haha.
I met my girl when I was out with an ex gilfriend lol then when we split a few months after I bumped into Elaine gave her my number lol it was in what we call the gay scene lol a bunch of pubs for the gays lmao in Newcastle ...I love her to bits she's a crazy lil thing only tiny but full of laughter and always joking and making me smile lol could even say yeah she cracks me up!! haha

 

[slat1]

Think you will enjoy rihannas album I l0ve it.

I met her about 11 years ago give or take a year or two. She performed at a club I was a bouncer at. I don't remember the song but it was called something buy numbers I believe. MTV was big into promoting her. She lip sinced her performance but everyone loved it. I believe she was real young then. 16 maybe?

 

[dmk777]

Wow really yeah that would of been when here fame kicked off! you had the same career as me lol do you still do any door work? since I started I have had the chance to work with loads stars I love my job....

 

[jennifer778]

Got to have your priorities in order!! Good luck with the move. I paid someone to pack me last time. Worth every penny!

Thanks Jen! If I had the money I'd be paying someone fo sho!! I bet that would make it tons easier!! Good for you!!

 

[jennifer778]

Wow really yeah that would of been when here fame kicked off! you had the same career as me lol do you still do any door work? since I started I have had the chance to work with loads stars I love my job....

I love your job too!! Think it's awesome!!

Wow. She was young!! That sounds like a cool job. Not sure how I feel about singers lip syncing. Would rather them sing!!

Yep it will be a great job and I will make good money! So that's why I'm doing it. I was in sales for 10 years and when the economy tanked it became so unstable. Then I had a head-on collision and I knew life was too short. That I needed to be doing something I really enjoyed and not just hating life and my job!!

I think we are extremely clever..:us being able to teach ourselves!! Is there anything we can Not do!? Nope!! Lol!! We are the bomb!!

So glad you love your girl!! I can tell how much you love her in your posts!! That's very cool. I know all about the gay scene. Sounds funny i know. My brother is gay so I've heard my fair share!! Lol!!

 

[slat1]

Wow really yeah that would of been when here fame kicked off! you had the same career as me lol do you still do any door work? since I started I have had the chance to work with loads stars I love my job....

I stopped after ten years. Too much liability. I had a civil suit filed against me in a case where I actually didn't do anything wrong. It took a long time before it went away.
I started at a club this year and stopped after the first night. People are so entitled these days. They don't think any rules apply to them. I couldn't stand it and knew I would lose my temper and regret it so I stopped.
I had a lot of fun over the years. I got to meet a few people from bands, some models and some porn stars. Lots of crazy stories. I probably shaved 30 years off my life!

 

[dmk777]

Ten year Jesus that's a life sentence lol! I totally agree with you in this job were open to accusations and the thing is that I found when your accused of something your on your own most the time the venue and company that you work for won't fight your corner even knowing your right for the fear of loosing money it's all wrong . Lol models and porn stars what sort of venue were you working haha lucky you!. I do love the job I work more in event security now rather than door work which suits me better as music is my life.

 

[SnipersGirl]

D can I be you when i grow up??????
