Hi kb. I'm really enjoying the twists!

You know what's silly? Part of the reason I dislike ab work is bc I have bloating issues, and doing ab moves makes my tummy puff out even more. Then I feel fat. *sigh* Dumb, but there you go. I watch myself squat and on the bottom, my tummy puffs out and I can't help but wince bc I hate it. It's related to my gluten etc issues so it'll go away when it feel like it, I guess.

Mine does too. I have a uterine tumor about the size of a softball that I blame mine on.
Anytime I'm doing an exercise that requires me to do anything bendy or squaty....there comes that horrible bulging yulk. However....the more fat I lose around my middle, the better it's looking.

Question: do you squat? Where do you like to hold the weight, on shoulders or in front?
|
Yes I do. I spent a good deal of time trying to figure a way out of it, but it came down to just squatting and getting it over with rather than wasting time on things not nearly as effective. But I HATE squats....and lunges.
Sorry, I hate to pass up an opportunity to whine about squats.
Lately I've been doing front squats. I use to do back squats exclusively. Front squats seem to hit my quads better. I have to go a whole lighter too. I use lifting straps when doing them. I loop them around the bar to make "handles." Still crossing my arms in front and resting the bar across my shoulders, but holding onto the straps instead of the bar.
Back squats-- let the bar rest in your rear delt/trap. area that is made when you bring you shoulders back. Do NOT let it rest on your neck vertebra. I'm not sure if you were just wanting to know if I did front or back squats, or how to position the bar. But....maybe somewhere in all that I answered your question.

Can anyone eat just 1oz of cream cheese? I don't think it's possible. Would you even want to hang out with someone who could eat 1oz of cream cheese and be like "Oh, I'm just soooo full, I am soooo satisfied with that itty bitty smidge" - no. You would bench press that bitch and then eat the rest of her cream cheese while she burned in hell, and rightfully so.

You are so funny!! Thanks again for always making me laugh.
It even drives me crazy to see those show-offs who can leave stuff on their plates. Heck, half the time, I lick my plate when I'm done.
