*.* 2013 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2013! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
**From the 2012 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

When you did Triathlons, didn't you want a better finish time? When I am lifting on lifts all the time (bench/squat/dead), I want better numbers. If you aren't wanting to progress, might as well not do any activity to get better.

I am going Silock gay here!
I am not a 6-pack guy. I care more about strength numbers and muscle mass. Have cut about 10lbs lately just to lean up a bit. Current progress pic from a few weeks ago. Face blurred to curb the fappers around here!

Yeah, I'll never be that big. I just don't have those genes.

Dude, my parents are 5'8" 140lbs (dad) and mom 5'1" 100lbs. They are and always have been thin as rails.
So I don't either. Just consistency working out and challenging to gain strength...but mostly just consistency in diet/lifting. Plus those few years of Olympic lifting gave me some really dense muscles. Easily the most challenging lifting I have ever done physically and mentally. Also, very little cardio!

Edit- Never-mind found it on your profile 27. You aren't going to want to carry that around at 40. |

I don't want to be that big, but each to their own.

I love my time at the gym. I love the challenge; I love the feeling of accomplishment when I meet goals; even love the soreness that accompanies lifting. |
