^ That's good to hear, although they do still say to keep workouts to an hour and under to make sure your muscles are fine. I don't even adhere to that, though, so as long as it's an hour and a half and under (even with rests), you should be fine. I go with my friend, so usually we use whatever machines are open next to each other and talk while we workout lol. I usually do everything in one day, so it's hard to fit it all in to an hour and a half. Although I try to go multiple days at a time when I can to work my arms one day, and butt the next.

I wish I could go to the gym more often, I'd hit my goal so much faster then!

Hey Natty,
I only do 3-4 different excersizes of heavy lifting. I do take my time and rest between each excersize. I also incorporate additional excersizes like cable abductors and back extensions which I do not consider heavy lifting, especially when I need to kill some time if a machine I need is taken. I also end up chatting now and then. I might be overtraining slightly so I will back off a little, but it wont be much. Just enough to add some cardio.

^ You weight train for 2 hours at a time? Girl, that's no good, you're over-working your muscles! The optimal amount of time you should spend working out is 45 minutes to an hour, but I usually get so caught up having fun at the gym, I end up going for at least 1hr 15min. ;P But 2 hours just on WT is def too long. Try to cut back on it and see what it does for you maybe?

I started doing much heavier weights with lower reps, and it's helping me already (now that my body is able to absorb protein). I'm upping my weights every time I'm at the gym, on every machine! The hip abduction machine I'm somehow able to do it on 250lbs...I'm back at 40" AGAIN, and I really think I'm starting to move past that point again finally! My workout the other day made my butt and arms sore for the first time since hitting the gym! I'm now confident that I'll be at 42" NO PROBLEM by spring! Maybe I'll even be able to get a little bigger, too!

Hey babygurl.  HugI am glad creatine is working awesome for you!
I dont really do any cardio....:( but I am going to start on my off days. I really want to loose some more off my waist. I have been telling myself that I am doing a "bulking up" stage but I can never seem to eat enough calories for major growth. I am hoping that the new mass gainer shake can help. I feel like I am always battling between wanting to eat and grow or reduce and slim my waist...
 
 
Anyways, for 2 hours I do my WT. I try to switch it up but I am doing 5-6 sets of 12 or until failure.
I am going through another faze were my patience is being tested. I feel like I am not growing and I worry about over training. But I always leave the gym worried that I didnt push my muscles hard enough, or I didnt have perfect form, or I didnt have muscle-mind connection enough, etc. I read stories about girls gorwing so quickly in 6 months and I have been doing this longer than that and I just want more result for the time and effort I out in. I just try to tell myself to give 110% and I will see results. I am grateful for what I have accomplished though. And I cant wait for my NB to arrive!
Take care :)

Awwwww girl that is so good to hear, that is the best kind of success story because you are actually putting in the hard work everyday and realize its a lifestyle change. Lol i can only imagine the beauty/ body routines we are going to need in 10,15, and 20 years so Hell Yeah start as soon as possible :) and no worries for the long posts, its always nice to hear from you Smile Im so excited for youuuuuu <3 hope you are rewarding yourself with something nice every now and then Star
 
Im just curious what do you do in the 2 hrs at the gym? do you do any cardio on those days and do you workout on other days? Im just curious because you seem to have this all very planned out, hope im not too nosy :-) Im having trouble balancing WT with anything else because my legs have to recover for like 3 days (thanks to your recommendation of creatine, i can go 100x harder lifting= longer recovery, but sooooo much muscle growth omg thank you again!)

Nope, no trainer. I joined in June and went straight to the weight section. I was on a mission and I realized, so was everyone else. Most, not all, are in the gym trying to hit goals as well so they are not 100% secure with themselves either. Within a week people would approach me and give me kudos or just make friendly conversation. Now that I am a regular, I have many friends at the gym including most of the trainers and staff there. The trainers have helped me along the way and given me advice and free sessions.
It has really become a lifestyle change for me and I think it is important for the other women on this site to realize that. I never thought I would be getting up early before work to go to the gym for 2 hours twice a week and every saturday. I year ago you couldnt pay me to get up before I had to be at work. It is supreme dedication to your body. I never thought I would be eating a clean diet, protein shakes buy the pound, chugging water, etc. etc. I used to eat whatever the hell I wanted. When I used to look in the mirror, I would feel like, "yea, you look good, but make sure you suck in your stomach all day. Maybe one day I will not have love handles." Then I realized, only I can change my body. So I did. The results I have sustained thus far have made me very pleased and I know I am capable of my dream body. I just keep pushing harder and harder telling myself to have patients. I have the best body I have ever had my whole life, and the only regret I have is that I waited this long to do it.
 
*sorry for the long post* feeling inspired today....:)

Sad day Babygurl! Good luck with your new goals. :) and thank you for all the PM and NB tips. I will def be reporting progress.
Natty-get your butt over to the squat rack and do squats...you will thank yourself a million times. I work out by myself every time and I am always in the weight section alone. I am now squating 185 and most of the weight training I do puts the guys to shame. There are even guys that ask me about things I am doing, and want advice. I even do my hip thrusts all layed out on the floor in the weight section. It is an invigorating feeling knowing your way around the weight room, having the knowlege, being confident and guys looking like...Shocked  just walk around like you are the baddest bitch and no one can tell you sh*t. The guys will love looking at you and you did say awhile back that you are single now. maybe you will find a new man :)

Well...I couldn't be further from my goal at this point. I'm finally really building muscle now that I have a gym membership, but I'm fluctuating between 39" and 40" on the day-to-day...don't know how that's even possible, or why it won't stay around 40". >:(

I've been on and off sick, so I haven't really been to the gym much. FINALLY feeling better, so I'm gonna try to go at least 3 times this week to workout my butt. I've yet to do barbell squats because my friend doesn't want us squatting around a bunch of beefy guys LOL So I guess we'll do that on a day where we can go in after midnight. Still, the other butt machines are helping us a little, and my butt IS getting firmer at least.

Somehow my butt still doesn't get as sore as it used to after a workout, even when we just worked out here at my house with 10lb weights and 2lb ankle weights. Wtf?? Maybe I should be trying maca again once I can afford it after the holidays, that stuff always made my butt sore the first week of taking it, not even working out!

I stiiiiilllll hope to be a steady 40" by the New Year, and a steady 25" waist or less. ;) We'll see how this goes...Hopefully while I'm trying to lose fat from my midsection I don't end up losing it from my donk! D:

Wow that is a lot of progress in weight training since April, congrats <3 you must be naturally good at it :)


And i know PM is scary :( but it realllllly does work. My boobs dont respond to much besides NB and PM. Other stuff gives me swelling, but those 2 things account for all my growth from an A to C (and it seems to be a common combo among other ladies). But heres the thing, i took one bottle of PM as recommended and it started working within the first week, it continued to give me a lot of swelling through the 2 months i used it and the only reason i stopped is you cant use any soy or other phytoestrogens with it :/ its a lot tougher than you think, everything has soy in it!! Ok well thats my 2 cents :-) i would recommend it to anyone who fits the criteria (no history of breast/ reproductive system cancers, blood clots, heart disease) and it really DOES work which is part of the reason why i tried it and stopped so i can use it later when my body is more detoxed and can adjust my diet better (ok sorry to talk about my experience so much, just want you to hear the real truth about it). There is a lot of debate about when you hit a plateau, but i think every 3 months you should cleanse. And the very first 3 months are probably going to give you the most growth so research, research, research to make sure youre fitting all the diet criteria.

*cliffnotes for PM*

•no soy
•no other estrogens
•take a progesterone supplement or rub Progesterone cream on you 2x a day, 14 days before your period to keep estrogen receptors open
•get extra calcium in your diet
•collagen will probably help to
•you can take it with Maca and it may increase your results !!!!!!! i found a thread on breastnexus.com confirming it >.< yaaaaay



Ok and i can get into more detail but that is the basics. and you know im always here if you need more rambling advice >.<


Omg and about the PT thing :0 he probably has a special certificate to train injured/ disabled/ eldery/ youth/ group etc. Thats the only reason why i would think you would need to recertify so much and even then damn :( most of the schools ive seen say you need to retake the test for like $60-$200 every 2 years. But that is just for basic PT, im starting small :p technically you dont even need to be a CPT to train people its just for insurance purposes. America rocks !

Youare too funny. You are probably one of the coolest chicks on this site. Alwayskind, helpful and funny. Thank you but I typically buy whatever’s on sale. Iactually told my trainer friend about it today and he told me that it was goodto switch up protein brands and mixtures. He said your body will adapt to theprotein just as your body does anything else. I think it’s great that you usesoy protein. I have used it before and really liked it. I will probably go backto it once my 24lbs is gone…lol that just sounds ridiculous (having 24lbs ofprotein powder).

Thankyou again for your kind words in regards to my injury. I started this journeyin March of this year and began squatting a little after, maybe in April. Istarted out using between 30-40lbs on a barbell.

Lol@ your 2-liter bottle comment, and I really appreciate all of your tips!  And I love your term “snoogle”. I will certainlybe doing that.

 I am skeptical about trying PM just for thesimple fact that herbs, as you know, have not been beneficial for me. I do knowthat PM is one of the most powerful ones so maybe that is what I need. I just don’twant anything throwing off my hormone levels and derailing any of my lifting.  

Ohand I also asked my trainer friend about becoming a PT (not for personalreasons, but I know you said that was a goal of yours) and he said you have tobe recertified every 6 months. He also told me it was $600 a pop. Holy hell… Iwish you the best!

lol i meant not cool like you and wants2learn with your expensive ass protein powders Tongue
 
145lb squat is so good, way to go :) im really jealous! how long did it take you to build up to that? And im really glad to hear you are doing better sooner than later.
 
Def go with the XL if you are already a C and breast-fed. I just had to get my little-booby angry rant out there Embarrassed And make sure to order the foam rings, b/c of the weight of the domes (dont freak out when you get them they are like half 2-liter bottle size) it really pulls on the circular area where the dome attaches and will give you ring marks. I've noogled pretty hard and had some issues with marks and indentations but nothing that lasted over a week. You basically just get a hicky :/ it happens if you leave the NB on too long with too much pressure. You will know early on if its right for you or not but im 99.99% certain you will love it Hug Ladies who have had kids or lost weight and have a lil extra fat/ skin tissue to work with get great swelling and IMO better results overall. You have all the boobage, NB just helps pump it up ^.^
 
 
and for extra cleavage you can take a scark and tie the domes closer together (once their on its only like 1 inch apart, not a huge difference)
 
 
i experimented with noogling while laying face down with my upper body hanging off the bed, and arms resting on a chair (so basically my boobies where hanging off the bed with NB on). I got AMAZING swelling but really bad ring marks! The gravity helped but i needed to mess around with the pressure i guess :/ anyway HTH, there are so many random tricks and things you will figure out, everyone has their own way. And the best part is you can SNOOOOOOGLE (sleep and noogle). Or at least nap with em on :-) easy!
 
If you take some PM with it you'll have insane results that stuff is like steroids Party

Yourwelcome Babygurl! I am happy I could help. You are always so helpful toeveryone, I am glad to return the favor.Hug

BackIs better. I started doing squats again (I couldn’t wait) and no pain. I trulybelieve that I have found what I did to my back…Smith machine lunges with TOO WIDE OF A STANCE. I would domy lunges on the smith machine with perfect lunge form and I wouldn’t feelanything in my glutes, only my quads. SO I modified my stance making it muchwider, this made my ass burn and I loved it. Even one of the trainers that Ifrequently talk with told me it was a terrible idea. I didn’t listen and I wasusing this stance lifting 145lbs and doing like 5-6 sets of 12. Really badidea. I then compounded the problem by adding back extensions, which are greatand I love, but it was too much for my lower back to take.

Sincecutting those out, I have been much better and I am slowly getting back to my165lb squats. I only worked up to 145lbs today to take it easy. Also, that sametrainer did some stretching with me to try and help identify what the problemmight be, and all the things he did didn’t hurt, so things are healing up.

Thank you for the NB tips! I will definitely bedoing some further research. I told hubby about it earlier this year and showedhim some B&As on the NB site forum. He was skeptical and didn’t reallythink I needed it but ultimately he just said he wanted me to do whatever mademe happy. Long story short, we have a 5-yr-old and I breast fed so my boobs arecurrently a 38c cup but they are just not full anymore. He knows that I made thatsacrifice for our son and he is very supportive.  I told him I wanted a new bikini next summerand I needed the boobs to match. I don’t even want to go much bigger, I justwant to round them out and add some more cleavage. I will probably order theXL. Do you think it will be too big? And you’re supposed to noogle 2hours aday?

And what do you mean “not cool like you chicks”? Thegymnast?

SOrry that was so long...

Talbott!!!!! Girl that recommendation for weight-training supps helped me so much (and is the main reason my lil .5" gain has stayed!), im just starting with creatine for now but even that gave my workout such a huge boost and made it a lot easier to get through! THANK YOU so MUCH!!!
Glad to hear you got some stuff on sale :-) Buying stuff in bulk like that helps your routine soooooo much b/c your body is getting the same stuff consistenly. Yaaaay im excited for you! (It may be worth a shot to check out bulk protein at organic-type stores online, but i know you are probably looking for quality Embarrassed its good to have a cheapy option if you are a lil broke at the end of the month. Or is that just me? Ouch)
And good luck with your back :( hmmmmmm have you tried the lotion for sore muscles that gets all hot and then icy feeling?
CONGRATS on your other body-type accomplishments toooooo!!!!!!!!  (its worth all this hardwork and time when everything starts coming together yaaaay!) How was the convo with hubby explaining the noogleberry? Tongue And grab some coconut oil if you see it on sale, its the best mosturizer ive used for it, and a little spoonful lasts for many hours of noogling. Pick up the Large domes if you are a large A or small/large B and have a band size that is bigger than like 28.(and buy the foam rings also, or a yoga mat to make foam cushions)  The Larges will take a looooooong ass time to fill in but the next size up is REALLY fricken big. The mediums are only like 2-3 cm smaller than Large. Soooo research carefully, but unless you are literally flat chested/ really small ribcage buy the Large because you may outgrow the mediums in a couple weeks (from personal experience)

I have been researching and watching videos like crazy, educating myself to trying and heal. I am staying true to no squats, deadlifts, or lunges and it is KILLING me! I will attempt to resume on Dec 6th. I have been doing weighted glute bridges (among other things) until failure. No new growth yet.
 
I did buy 24lbs of protein powder today on GNC's cyber monday sale. It was only like $45 for a 12lb bag (WHICH IS CRAZY CHEAP TO THOSE OF US WHO SPEND A FORTUNE ON PROTEIN POWDER) of Optimum Nutrition Mass Gainer...So I bought 2 bags.Im pretty pumped about it. :)
 
I was looking in the mirror at my butt, and I really have work to do....I will just not be satisfied until I am at 45''. I have decided to return the physio burn and skip the whole loosing waist inches goal. I am almost at 29'' and I am happy with that for now. I need to GAIN to grow this booty. I will continue CLA.
On another good note, Hubby said he would buy me a NB for xmas.....and I am on my second hook on my squeem, size small.
Body transformations take FOREVER! (remaining patient)
Good luck ladies and Hug

@talbott, lol thats tight you call the manager at GNC, you learn way more talking to ppl than reading it online. How is your back? :( is it like a pinched nerve or something worse? Is stretching helping at all?

If you need to decrompress your back it helps to just bend over at waist and let your upper body hang down like your going to touch your toes]]> Mon, 19 Nov 2012 11:01:11 +0000 http://Forum.BlackHairMedia.com/45-you-in_topic334349_post9934620.html#9934620 <![CDATA[45"......

BE CAREFUL WITH SPRINTING & INTERVAL TRAINING!!! 
Good stuff but it WILL shrink your butt if you don't get your recommended calories for the day bc you lose SO many calories Angry

Hey Babygurl. Lmao @ the honey boo boo gut.

Don’t feel responsible for anything. Everyone on here isresponsible for what they put in their bodies and I would have tried ANYTHINGto enhance my results. I valued (and still do) your knowledge so I appreciatethe information you did share with me.

 So I gave herbs myall and it didn’t work out. Maybe I needed to eat more, maybe I needed to up mydose. Nonetheless, I was tired of wasting $.

All of my gains are from lifting so I rolling with that100%. Maybe when I hit some more goals, I will give maca the run around againbut never anything else.

 

All of my knowledge comes from bodybuilding.com, GNC orL.O.s site. I am a private member there so I see some of her protected posts thathave additional info.  The manager at myGNC store is a Bio Chemist and I call him all the time at the store anytime Ihave questions. He is awesome. I also sometimes talk to the trainers at my gymand ask their opinions.

 

I don’t think that the sp did anything for my stomach.The only thing sp did for me was grow my boobs an inch in a month, which is nowgone.  Which is why I felt confused aboutwhy herbs did work for me in that way. I contribute my waist shrinking to heavylifting (raising my metabolism), clean diet, and CLA.

 

Sprinting uphill and any interval training is amazing forcardio, and that’s what I am going to implement into my routine more now that Iwon’t be squatting, etc.  I will have todo it on a treadmill or stair master in the gym because I live in Illinois andit is cold now.

It sucks that herbs didnt do much for you b/c i remember reading that you took them consistenly with all the right exercises :( i feel kinda responsible for pressuring you to take them back then too like last spring.... So long ago now! But we both learned something and im a lot less quick to recommend any herb unless the person is already taking it and just needs advice. Im really excited for your new regimen :-) where are you getting all this info, is it just out of your own curiosity? Or a personal trainer? Congrats on figuring it all out though :)


And thank you for the kind words, it really means soooo so much to me :,)   Lol and that picture was taken after working all day and not eating (i wouldnt dare post a pic on bhm with a full stomach, yall would laugh). As soon as i eat or drink anything but water i get the Honey Boo-Boo gut :(



Anyway >.>



do you think the SP contributed to your 3 inch loss on the waist? You took it like 6 months right? dont be afraid to add cardio, i know ive said it a thousand times but try dance workouts on youtube! It really keeps you curvy and not too athletic looking. Also, maybe sprinting uphill would work for you? Like a short burst of sprinting may burn a lot of calories and help build your booty muscle, but its not prolonged aerobic exercise so it wont shrink your whole body. This is just my speculation, havent had a chance to try sprinting yet but it seems pretty effective for building your lower half

whew im on my ipod feels like i have typed a novel ! Glad to see you back, and thank you again for your info, i'll relay it to other members to spread the word when im a lil more knowledgable :-)]]> Sat, 17 Nov 2012 23:16:39 +0000 http://Forum.BlackHairMedia.com/45-you-in_topic334349_post9932098.html#9932098 <![CDATA[45"......

I also wanted to add that I live in Illinois and there are plenty of big booty girls of all races here. I would never move to LA where the standards are ridiculous.

Thank you Babygurl! You are always so sweet :) I may be at 41 but I am still at a 30'' waist. Im totes jelly of your waist. That is my main focus now. I was scared to reduce calories or add more cardio. I have reduced 3 inches on my waist without really targeting it. So I am hoping I will be able to widle it down some more with hard work.
I hope someone can use my advice about supps because I dont want to see anyone else do what I did and use herbs for almost 6 months and waste time and money. I am not saying they dont work for everyone because they can work for some, just not for me apparently.
 
I see since I have been gone you have continued to be an awesome role model. Congrats on all of your success and keep up the positive vibe! Hug

@Talbott Hug yay you're back!!!! So sorry to hear abut your back injury. Thank you for that detailed post i'm going to save a lot of that info on workout supplements. I think that's something 90% of us here overlook. Glad to hear you are at 41" too, just in time for the holidays :-)
@Wants2Learn, wow im glad i live in inland cali, all the girls here are pretty out of shape and trailer-trashy looking :p i would hate to go to LA and be like.... damn. my booty dont measure up anymore Cry It's something in the water o.O
i think a lot of girls are getting curves early b/c everyone is taking birth control at like 14! i know it helps acne and cramps but come on that cant be healthy for every single patient. maybe im just a hater cuz i didnt start BC til i was 20 and it had absolutely no effect on my body shape Pig

Amber Rose is black just mixed! Tongue 
I believe the 38' because my friend is 39' & her butt is HUGE Angry & her waist is a 24 Clap She's been in a Rick Ross video and has catered at one of Chris Brown's parties (he had girls dressed in body paint) I also think it depends on the shape of the booty too because some girls have really wide butts with no meat on the bottom/top instead of that juicy C shape & when you don't have a small waist & the juicy thighs to match the 38' isn't gonna look as good Nuke (babygurl got it all tho at 41' Approve) Im a 38' right now & guys always comment but UGH I just wanna reach my fullest booty potential LOL so much T.I.M.E but it'll be worth it Big smile It's hard living in LA tho seeing all these big booty hoes with perfect skin,hair,and boobs to match Censored I try not to compare myself but it's extra hard when you see your man's EXes get posted on this forum regularly!! It's the main reason why I haven't joined this forum in all these years cuz whenever I see their pics all I want to do is hate & scream FAKE when I know damn well they ain't LOL ALOT of the girls in the body inspiration thread (especially the old one) are dumbass young like 16,17,18 still in highschool or freshman/sophmores in college barely pushing 20 but look hellaaaa grown with all that booty  Censored

Hello gorgeous ladies.
I havent been around for awhile. I have been working really hard to figure out why I hadnt gained any inches in 2 months.
I dug deeper and I finally got to a solid 41''.
Start: 38-33-39
Current: 38-30-41
This has been in 7.5 months. I couldnt have better results had I known what I know now. But that is part of the journey.
I am fairly happy with my results thus far, but I am not stopping until I acheive my dream body. Which means like 45''.
Anyways, after ditching herbs completely...(I do miss my black maca and am considering adding that back into my supps) I decided to focus completely on lifting. And I learned SOO much more.
If I can offer ANY advice to the ladies who are lifting heavy, please do not think that a single protein shake after a hard lifting workout is going to suffice. You are going to need at least 120g+ of protein daily. I also reccomend adding BCAAs, Glutamine, and Creatine to your supps DAILY. These are GUARANTEED to make your muslces bigger (along with proper calorie intake and lifting habits), unlike any herbs. DO your research on these.
REMEMBER: your muscles grow on your off days...so feeding them on your off days is JUST as important as your heavy lifting days. I was also not meeting my calorie intakes daily, and that is also equally important. I also want to remind you that your muscles are 60%+ of water so dont forget to drink tons of it to feed your muscles.
Some bad news......I hurt my lower back and am now unable to do any of my deadlifts, squats, smith machine lunges, or back extensions for at least a month, if not longer.
Of course I wouldnt allow for this to be a block in my road. I hadnt integrated any weighted hip thrusts in my routine, so I have added those along with other modified excersizes. I am also going to focus on toning up my arms and losing another 2 inches off my waist.
I cant deciced how low I want to drop my calorie intake, for fear of losing my precious gains. Thinking of adding Physio Burn.
I also did a 7 days cleanse and I feel like it might have been a waste. But I wanted a clean start to start my new supps.
Current supps:
4g CLA daily
Vita pack daily
probiotic daily
Fiber Daily
4gs Fish oil daily
130g protein daily
60+oz h20 dailly
Before workout: C4+5g creatine+5g BCAAs
During workout: 5g BCAAs
After workout: 75g protein shake + 5g glutamine and creatine (my protein mix includes bcaas)
Every night before bed:Protein shake + 2g glutamine
Off days: 5g creatine with food
10-20g BCAAs inbetween meals especially in the morning.
I know this is going to be years of hard work....but I am all in.
Good luck ladies!

I'm trying to achieve 38" on my butt (I am currently 35 1/2") but if I find it not big enough, I'm "signing up" to this challenge!


It's better for black people who are the minority, an overwhelming majority of white women still prefer smaller measurements.

Believe me, if you're not 5'3'' it won't be big enough LOL I'm 5'7'' with 42'' booty and I want MORE LOL
