Indeed considering you had a tough day, you are doing awesome!

[Sportsgirl]

Ooh damn, so many to choose from! And its good 'cos it gives suggestions on the best type of cut for the different types of bewb and booty... lol.

Thanks for the link! Think I'll be using that lady to make mine too :nod:

I got the triangle string top and the pro cut bottom (it's freaking tiny) and V-front. I ended up getting a second one made too in a different colour and got her to cut it between a pro and a brazilian... it ended up being a tiny bit bigger than I wanted at the back, but oh well, nothing major!

Nice deads!

[poos_n_wees]

Cheers fellas!

That's awesome, Poos -(and that's a sentence where the comma is REAL important :grin: )

Nice one! What colours did you get? At this stage I'm thinking just to get black. Black is safe lol. But I also like the look of that purple velvet on the tan.. :think:

I think I'm gonna go with a triangle string top as well, the description says that gel inserts can be added \:D/ :pfft:

And yeeeeah the pro cut is teeny! But not as teeny as the thong cut I'm also leaning more towards the V-front too :nod: Are you gonna stone your bikinis yourself? Or is she doing that?

I have black and green liquid foils, so they're both shiny.

I have some stones but now I'm wondering if I should just leave it. I'm kinda lazy Maybe I should do that on Sundays when all I wanna do is go drink at the bar :pfft:

Oooh.. shiny is good Will look wicked on the tan.

Or better yet, work the drinks into your macros and take the bikinis & stones with you to the bar.. lol. That'll make for some interesting patterns :pfft:

Energy was pretty low today. Moping around work and the house feeling sorry for myself :naughty:

Training was average, the mind wasn't into it. But was glad I sucked it up and finished it off

Mum's birthday today, so I made 2 banana cakes and some peanut butter cookies (in my family, love = food lolz). I was surprisingly OK making it! I seem to get enough satisfaction with watching other people eat nice food... weird .

Family's going out for dinner on Saturday night, so it looks like I'll be making my food in advance again to eat at the restaurant. Yay!

[biggurl27]

Yep I know what you mean about watching people eat and making things. I just have a sniff haha

[poos_n_wees]

Me too. Even at the supermarket deli...

Thursday 7/8

Actually a little bit more than 130, seeing as the plates are 45 & 35 lb'ders . 'Scuse the butt shot.. BF was recording

But equalled my PB of 140kgs today! Happy happy joy joy lol.

Massive Effort P&W

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Hips comming up a bit to fast puts extra pressure on your lower back, starts to round. Try and push back to get hamstrings tight, which helps you load the bar, (take a bit of the weight) big breath, push abs out. Drive through the heels pull bar as close as you can into your body.

Could not quite see your shoes if they are runners take them off, try it, will make a big difference.

150 here we come. \:D/

Have you ever tried Sumo, the wider pelvic structure makes this lift more suited to women, probably will not give the mass building of conventionals but your deadlift could shoot a up quite a lot.

THANK YOU for this OB! Yeah I noticed that my hips come up too fast too.. and I do get mad lower back DOMs after doing deads, so it all makes sense now :doh:

Yup, wearing runners. Will try this next time!

HELL YEAH!! :twisted:

Tried these a while back, but we're talking years :shock: I'll do a few more weeks of conventionals to try and improve form then will give these a crack.

[Sportsgirl]

For some reason Sumos don't feel right to me. I should play around with them. I guess it's a matter of preference!!

[poos_n_wees]

Its probably because you don't have a wider pelvic structure like most wimmenz

I've only ever mucked around with them in the past, but I think I might give it a go soon, seeing as I wanna get my lifts up :nod:

[poos_n_wees]

haha Poos your a crack up "swear words" after lunges, yeah not surprised they suck big time! I haven't done any for a while :-s :naughty:

Man you are getting good at your chin ups, I is jelous :? haha

[poos_n_wees]

Man you are getting good at your chin ups, I is jelous :? haha

Haha! I'd gladly swap them for your squats hot mama :grin:

Well well well, due to unforeseen circumstances.. my comp date's moved from CNIs on Oct 11 to NABBA North Harbour, Nov 1. I'm out of town late Sept - early Oct for work, so now I have to diet for even longer

I've never done a NABBA show before so it'll be interesting! (Last 2 shows I did were NZFBB and SPBBF). And plus you get to have a person backstage with you, and being a local comp, logistics will be easier :grin:

Training's changed to a 3-day fullbody split. Got bored with my last split and with help realised that I was doing waahaaayy to much volume for my upperbody... so am trying something new \:D/

Diet's along the lines of a ketogenic type deal (this is day 4 of it now), with low carbs/moderate fat/high protein for 6 days, and a depletion workout & refeed every 7th day. Going awesomely on this so far - strength hasn't suffered, and no hunger pangs

[poos_n_wees]

Oh cool, thats not too much longer and you will have that extra couple of weeks to practice :nod:

:nod: Definitely need the extra practise! :pfft:

My local New World stocks the Ceres brand spreads now! So I can get 100% natural peanut butter (they've got both smooth annndd crunchy) or even almond butter (at the price of $7.50 a jar :shock: )

[Pseudonym]

Hmph. I'm not at all impressed with the peanut butter situation at my local Foodtown. First they dropped the Sanitarium stuff while they did a "stocktake" that lasted a month. Then, just when we'd acclimatised ourselves to ETA instead, they did away with that too. Now we're down to Kraft, and only in piddly little jars. :evil:

Piddly little jars = more sales = more profit. I'd boycot them.
