    Fitness, figure, female bb's and performance enhancing drug use

    I'm training 4-5 days a week, minimal cardio, just weights. I've just gone onto a split body routine, the first month was full body one day, static training the next alternating 4-5 days a week. Now I'm doing the typical back, bi's & abs/chest & tri's/legs/shoulders & abs Monday thru Thursday...

    Fitness, figure, female bb's and performance enhancing drug use

    sorry about the pic spam Ahhh, yeah I can. But please take into consideration that I'm currently "bulking", so I'm bigger than I normally am (I'm about 5 kg overweight) and, y'know, I'm 39 with a kid and I've only been back lifting seriously for about 6-8 weeks after several years out of the...

    Fitness, figure, female bb's and performance enhancing drug use

    Yeah, I've heard of people draining their bladder then inserting a catherter and filling up with clean urine >.< ouch! NGL, I would be pretty pissed to lose to someone in a "natural" federation who used. And you're spot on, IFBB definitely gets you greater exposure and that leads to greater...

    Fitness, figure, female bb's and performance enhancing drug use

    I'm not sure yet, we're waiting to see how my physique develops next year, I might be well suited to one but not another. I'd like to do IFBB because there's more potential for sponsorship, money and exposure down the line, but it's also not a testing federation and the women are definitely...

    Fitness, figure, female bb's and performance enhancing drug use

    It's certainly not healthy to be that low for any length of time, but I have been down around 10% purely through caloric restriction- no exercise. Water manipulation (including the use of diuretics), carb stripping, salt loading then stripping can all get a woman down to that point for a comp...

    Fitness, figure, female bb's and performance enhancing drug use

    Here's a link to a really interesting article I read the other day- D-Cups and D-Bol - Women and Anabolic Steroids Here's part of it; "Now that we're vaguely on the same page, we can go over some basics regarding female anabolic use. It's pretty common to hear people say things like "even...

    Need to get some protein powder- any ideas?

    I'm definitely in the minority as I have never bought anything online. There's just so much out there that I can imagine myself wasting money on, "Oh wow, 12 inch stiletto shoes with goldfish floating in the platform! I've always wanted a pair of those!" :p Still, it would make a lot of things...

    Female training-PTC style

    Wow! I love Nina's tattoos! And chin ups are definitely a goal of mine, so it's inspiring to hear about other women doing so well. I think it's fantastic that you guys are so positive about girls getting into serious lifting- so many gyms tend to ignore, if not downright discourage, women from...

    Need to get some protein powder- any ideas?

    LOL I already did! He was very helpful- told me about a place in Prahran that sounds good and, thankfully, relatively inexpensive. Thanks for the links- unfortunately I don't have a debit card (let alone a credit card) so buying online is out for now but I will definitely check them out...

    Need to get some protein powder- any ideas?

    Unfortunately I can't shop online- no paypal account and no credit or visa debit card. I'm thinking I might head down to mike's gym in frankston or maybe the gym that member here runs (PTC?) and just buy from there.

    Need to get some protein powder- any ideas?

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this question, my apologies if it's not. I got back from training the other day only to realise that I had nothing decent to eat in the house, my huge bag of Aussie Bodies whey protein isolate getting tossed when I moved house a year ago. I'm...

    Any tips for avoiding amenorrhea? Also any female bb's here?

    Once I start a more worthwhile programme and figure out how to post it here I will (I'm still at weak n00b stage :p) Em

    Any tips for avoiding amenorrhea? Also any female bb's here?

    Oh, I'm very sorry to hear that :( He really encouraged me to continue with the powerlifting, said I could do well. I trained a few times out at his home gym but then I fractured my sternum at the Harold Holt pool (the 10 metre platform, a pin drop and my fear of heights = ouch) and had to stop...
