Re: Love2liftkat's training log

looking good ma'am keep on trucking along. lines are def coming out and showing. i personally am a bigger fan of non competition ladies not being peeled to the bone and just having good shape and lines. i am not a fan of the super nasty ripped look on females. ab wall showing with leg lines is plenty lean enough as long as you feel good and healthy

Thank you! I agree! I’m not going for shredded but I definitely want to have good muscle definition...like it’s obvious I lift/train hard not just talk about it! [emoji23]🤣 Right now, most observers outside the gym would never know! Lol

Sorry I got behind again. It sure is hard keeping up on multiple forums! 🤦🏼*♀️

Workouts have been great! Still doing the triple giant sets for 12 mins each. alternating upper/lower body. Just finished a comp on another forum so here are some recent progress pics

Re: Love2liftkat's training log

that's awesome on the squats as for the random punk jumping in haha that makes me very angry. i am like you, i have no problem with someone working in or even using what i am. they have to do the work and move with a sense of urgency though or i will lose my temper. i try not to but it happens from time to time esp if i am on a strict time line

Re: Love2liftkat's training log

Exciting news....tried squats today for the first time in forever! No pain!!! They actually felt surprisingly well! I only worked up to 185 to play it safe. I also only went to right at parallel. Didn’t try to get too deep as to irritate the impingement.

I also added some extras in there at the end.

Squats
45x8
95x5
135x5
165x3
185x3x3 sets

Giant set 1:
12 mins - as many rounds as possible
Leg press 575x12
Single leg deadlifts 45’s x8
Plank 30 secs
Rest 1 min
** made it 4 rounds

Giant set 2:
12 mins - as many rounds as possible
Kneeling squats 220x8
Alt lunges 20x10 each leg
Hip circle lateral squat walks 10 each way
1 min rest
**made it 4 rounds

Superset
12 mins - as many rounds as possible
Leg extensions 90x12
Leg curls 90x10
Calf raises 12
*no rests*
8 sets

Single leg extensions (outer quad focus)
50lb to failure, 30lbs to failure x 4 rounds

Ab work
Cable crunches 80x15x2 sets
Crunch Machine 40x15x3 sets
Decline weighted sit-ups 10lb ball x 12x3 sets

The gym I go to is a standard commercial gym with a lot of machines. There are 3 different machines for leg curl and leg extensions...yet, somehow, every Friday a random guy decides to jump on the ones I’m using to superset. I don’t mind if you simply ask and move quickly of course...but when they move very slowly and just take over, I am not a big fan! Lol

Looking fantastic!!!

Thank you Baby!

do you have super bio curcummin and tumeric in your supp lineup? stuff works pretty good for inflammation and overall health

Looked in my supps and I did have some tumeric. I will get some of the super bio curcumin to use once I run out.

Re: Love2liftkat's training log

check your sodium intake also. the intensity of your training could be depleting it out as well. i get them really bad in my neck and calves oh and hammies lol. dont forget the biceps too, if my sodium gets jacked up

Good thinking! That could’ve been it. I usually get plenty of sodium but I have definitely been depleting out a lot more lately! I had a little extra over the weekend and cramping has subsided!

Re: Love2liftkat's training log

I am having some cramping in my mid/upper back right along the base of my rib cage. Guess I need some potassium and to up my taurine. [emoji51] Good news though- I am down another 1.6 lbs
