Welcome to Taradise

[TG-ASC]

I am a 29 year old (for a couple of more months) female 58kg lifter with a BW of +/- 56kg. Along with Tiny Dancer, I have been worn down by my coach TBone to start a log.

I have no athletic background. I did crossfit for about a year and a half, then did my own thing for over a year. During that time strength was not a priority.

I am coming back from a ~6 month break from lifting so my numbers are still on the low end. I have been back to training seriously again for a little over a month. I took it slow coming back and that was the smart thing for me to do. I typically train 4xs a week.

Front Squats (in lbs)
1x45
1x65
1x75
1x85
1x95
1x105 This was a bit sketchy. Parallel, but def. not below.

3x75; 3x75; 3x75 (Bouncing does a body good)

5x50; 5x50; 5x50 (For speed, eerily similar to cardio... not a fan)

A note about Saturday morning training...or any morning training. I hate it. I skimp on my warm ups, I'm in a rush, I just don't care to ever work out in the a.m. I'm typically fresher after working out for 2 hours and THEN squatting. Must work on this. Riding to the gym with the seat warmers on seems like a good idea...

What's it like to lift with a bunch of middle aged women?

[TG-ASC]

They are still young and spry. It's pretty much awesome all the time.

We are a bunch of bad ass bitches. We train hard and tell it like it is.

Hi, TG! Woooooo!

You should note kilos and pounds, since you lift in both.

I'm telling you, Zach, chastity belt.
