yea that's too much. i told my ex that i wanted to do 5 days a week and he was like, "yea u dont even need to, that's silly" he said 4 days a week is fine and they shouldn't be consecutive, i need to split the days up. like go for 2 and take a day off and then go for another 2. i mean if you are just trying to maintain or tone up a bit, u def don't need to spend that much time in the gym. that's like body builder hours.

Yeah but if you still feel good, what's the problem? Unless of course, you DON'T feel good.

Ack! I just noticed I have callouses forming on my hands! Must be from the rowing machine. :/

just wear gloves. it's not like crew where it'd be seen as poosy to have gloves while you row.

jamie - curious and not to discredit him, but why did he say to not take the glucosamine?

as for your meals, you are pretty thin as it is (or from what i remember), perhaps you need to eat a more balanced diet instead of watching/cutting your foods. I can see rest days for you working out, but don't think it's all that necessary. it sounds like you are doing well routine wise, keep at it!

mmm callous hands on girls are so hot...seriously lol

Originally posted by Slylee i dunno i had dinner with my ex last night and he said dont take the glucostine. he said it's just that i'm really skinny and need to strengthen the muscles around my joints. after a couple months in the gym he said it'll stop. and for the record, he knows his shit...bs in exercise physiology from ohio state and physical therapy grad school. i'm getting free training and diet advice from him i'm gonna be doing 5 meals a day not to exceed 1200 calories, and 4 days a week weight training (not consecutively) with 20 min cardio as a warmup for each session.

I hope u weigh 80lbs with only taking in 1200 cals. say bye bye to any muscle tone u might have.

sorry for the change of subject, but what are some good exercises i can do either at home (for the days that i'm lazy) and at the gym that are good for your deep core muscles. i really am not looking for the regular 6 pack that everyone tries to get, i'm talking about the muscles under those that really do all the work for your body when it comes to all movements and posture.

i wear gloves, i hate calluses that's gross...at least on me. on guys it's hot. lol

glucosamine is supposed to lubricate joints right? mine are already slippery and 'cracky' because i don't have enough muscle around them. so i just need to build muscle around my joints and that will stop it.

also, i'm 5'5 and i weigh 114 now. trying to be a lean 120. i'm eating 5 small meals a day. keeping it healthy...lots of protein and only whole wheat carbs.

ew buy some gloves, women with rough hands make me think peasant worker. honestly though i have cute nike gloves (baby blue and gray)and i think they make nice gloves for women...perfect sizing for smaller hands.

as for my rant about not working out...i'm just going to go easy. i over do things and sometimes that's not good.

Then Swamper and his entourage of 30, who were all wearing TA monogramed Rolexes, left the room and flew to Hawaii for a few hours because Del wanted fresh coconut. To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

don't u love when he carresses your skin and then a callus gets caught on your hair or scratches your skin?
