Is it just me or does anyone else find they look way better naked than they do in underwear even if it’s sexy/matchy?

HAL, you can wear underwear better than anyone I’ve ever seen. [/quote]

RUSRS!?!? OMG I SOoooo prefer decorations to totally naked! I LOVE panties and I LOVE matching bras and I like lil babydolls and um slippery short shorts and pretty much any kind of ridic matchy matchy decoration you can think of! Um, probably WISH I thought I looked better totally naked.

Hi Hal

Nice lifting numbers! I just benched 105 for 3 on Wed, I feel like I am sort of getting the leg drive in there now. We’re almost at the 35lbs plates. We could race for them? 0_o

Not sure where my dl is at though(knee drama getting in the way) but if no drama we could be racing for 205lbs then 225lbs. :-/
[/quote]

Haieee! Omg <3
Yes lets race to the 35s love it. This race will consist of you lapping me as I havent budged in bench in months. Well not on max day anyway
You going to log again?
<3 sorry had to less than three you again.

Hal, do you have any special gym gear, in the sense of wraps or straps or belts or anything? I’m just wondering.

I’ve said this before. I feel good dressed and naked. It’s that halfway stage I struggle with. I don’t like panty lines nor the little bit of fat that’s always pushed around by bras. When I want sexy underthings, I go with corsets and things with more fabric, even if it’s sheer.

Do ridic matchy matchy gym outfits underwears and knee socks count as special equipment? No well then just gloves. The gloves are really only to keep my hands kinda girly for um, stuff.

OGosh thanks… that was early days this dreamer bulk right around 145. I’ll attempt to pose the same when I cut back down to that weight see what we see.

[Charlie_Horse]

Not sure about logging again. I’m kind of fickle. :-/

But the real goal is heavier than the 35s so I’m really focusing on bench form so I will be repeating the last month’s weights then I think I will be going for the 35s at the end of march so you have time. I want 45s by fall/winter. And beyond of course.

Maybe I should start a race for plates thread in PW instead of a log. Hmmm

BOO DOUBLE.

Ive been putting in 10 hour days in the lab. So busy.

IF… So I did a 16hour fast / 8 hour feed IF for about a year. I would stop eating at ~8pm and start again at ~12noon. I trained at 5am completely fasted and would not eat until 5-6 hours after I was done.

Why? To disprove all of those myths I used to hear about “going catabolic” and the “30 minute window of opportunity”. You have seen my BEFORE and AFTER pics on my old log, you know my progress

These days I still train completely fasted at ~5am, but I break the fast when I actually get hungry, arounf 9am. So I still “fast” for 14-16 hours a day, and train fasted. I love it. It works for me.

If you want to try it, go for it. Dont worry about “going catabolic”. Full digestion and protein absorption after a meal is on a 24-48 hour schedule (assuming proper calorie intake is met), so unless you are fasting for over a day, you wil not be catabolic.

Also, on my last cut, I ate a full pint of Ben and Jerry’s 4-5 times a week, and over 1/2 of my carb intake was from pure sugar (candy bars, etc), but thats another topic all together.

Journal coming… April 1st! My b-day (srs). Hope you will stop by and seksy-it-up.

[mom_in_MD]

you coulda asked me about “IF.”

I skip breakfast and train fasted all the time. I’m not getting results because I think my body is used to it.

[Patch2]

<---- those pants, doing double duty, may also be called underwear I’m in Cals camp.

SANKD YOU! Not for me, ffor Dasher. I’ve done too much IF in my day… I did JUDD for like six months when I was super sick. I just likes to eat too much to do it again!

Cannot wait for journal! When do you get the word on your destination?
Hahaha I know your birthday silly but um, didn’t make the April 1 connection LOL gawd 8’m dumb sometimes.

Hmn.
those pants ARE SEXY… and if you’re wearing them Calmando I guess they qualify… but you said CORSET.
hence, I refuse to be satisfied with PANTS.

I’m so glad you are feeling better. Training when not all cylinders are firing is so frustrating. Sounds like you had a good workout, though. I need to do more direct arm and shoulder stuff - I want bigger delts, bis and tris and the compounds just don’t seem to cut it.

^You are striking Cal.

Um, have we discussed yout ridic adorability lately?!? I know you are a stunning woman from other pics I’ve seen… this pic though wraps that beauty in ADORABLE! <3

My traps grew pretty good from heavy deads, I’ve historically just done the two direct shoulder accessories which worked decent due to good shoulder genetics I think. I’ve added shrugs for direct trap and am rounding out the shoulder routine as far as accessories (not to mention barbell OHP and AlT DB shoulder press I’ve been doing for awhile)

Lets grow us some (not quite ladylike) cannonballs.
