This has all been so informative and great! I'm definitely feeling better about routine and leaving the gym feeling like I got stuff done. Also, I've discovered muscles I didn't even know existed thanks to the DOMS, it's cool. I'm up to around 1500 cals per day lately, but I have some questions abou...

Thanks for the encouraging words! The DOMS is a bit difficult (especially the burning from the lunges) but it's just something I need to get through in order to get where I'm going, so it's okay :P I do have a weird question though. I don't have the chest strength to complete a bench press even just...

Thanks, I've already been upping calories. I'm up at around 1500 now but I'll probably up it some more as I get into the swing of things. And, I'm already on that protein grind, ordered up some Whey Protein today because intake has been low and right now there's no other feasible way for me to add i...

We have never openly banned talk of steroids on here, we just never really get any discussion of it, as almost all adult members are females, or guys who don't use anyway. I'm digging the amount of female users on here. Very cool. It's definitely what drew me to join this forum, so many of the othe...

Interesting point. I quite and freely admit wrongly, believed America was a mostly two horse political affair, with the occasional outsider or two fighting against a sea of long-term convention / ideologies and also apathy towards difference, so I was not that aware that although it's like that, th...

Wow, thank you so much for your input. I've been really lost as to scheduling, days off, how much to do and when, etc. This is extraordinarily helpful, I really appreciate the level of detail you went into. I was worried about calorie intake, too, I want to lose weight but I also don't want to get m...

Thanks for the details! The forums I frequent are all ones where it's possible for one member to make 150 posts per day all on their own (possible... not recommended though :P ) so it's a bit weird for me to be on one where I refresh the page and it looks exactly the same. And I never even thought o...

I LOVE SKINCARE :clap: number one secret to achieve awesome skin is to use the following routine: Cleanser, exfoliator (once or twice a week), toner, anti-aging serum, anti-aging oil, and moisturizing cream once a day. That's it. It takes like five minutes. I've been doing it every day for over a ye...

I frequent a few forums, and a bunch of them have hidden subforums that you can only access once you reach a certain number of posts. Is that the case with this forum?

Also, what's your average daily traffic on here? It seems alarmingly dead

America has tons of political parties: Republican, Democrat, Independent, Socialist, Working Families, Libertarian, and Green just to name a few. The government doesn't dictate how many parties there are :P However, due to the society's complete and utter inability to be moderate on any given issue,...

Hello, all! I'm (obviously) a new member. A few deets about myself before I hop into spiel.... 5'3"-5'4"-ish F, 128 Lbs., 24 (coming up on 25 faster than I'd like to admit). Ran in high school, then had a baby at 18, completely lost will to live, and let myself get horribly out of shape in...
