Guest guest Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Wecome back Kelley! Did you ever try that lean/bulk routine I sent you? If not, I still highly recommend. Very fun and very effective. I hope you'll be active on the board, it's been pretty quiet around here. If you want more support and encouragement, there are a couple of us ( , Machelle, and Jami) who are over in another BFL yahoo group for women. It's very active and very motivating over there. Let me know if you're interested and I'll send you a link. Otherwise I'm sure you can do a yahoo group search and find us. It's called Get Fit with Body for Life. I think you'd love it. There are lots of very knowledgeable women there. That is where I got the lean/bulk routine as a matter of fact. Anyhoo. Glad to have you back. I look forward to seeing your menus and hear about your progress. Terri _____ From: bodyforlife [mailto:bodyforlife ] On Behalf Of KelleyBFL@...

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Kelley, it is great to see you back in the group and also was good to see you at Hocking Hills. That was such a relaxing weekend for me. I'm still doing the lean/bulk although a modified version of what Terri sent. I've found it very effective and am loving it. I've been cutting out some sets as I taper or come back from my streak of marathons: 9/4/07; 9/22/07 (my first ultra - 37 miles) and the next is 10/13/07 Baltimore. No way I could have ever considered this many last year, but it is going very well this year. I've found marathons to be somewhat bad for my nutrition. The week after I tend to crave a lot of carbs which is good to replenish, but I tend to eat a lot of extra sweets instead of good carbs. I gained a few lbs and am trying to lose those before the next one. Every once in awhile, I have to remind myself to clean up the nutrition if it gets out of hand for too long. If needed, I can start posting my menus. Andy > > Wecome back Kelley! > > > > Did you ever try that lean/bulk routine I sent you? If not, I still highly > recommend. Very fun and very effective.
