Free Weights are the best thing since Sliced Bread.

You know, the hardest things you need to do can become the easiest and most addictive if you can get through the first couple of days

You understand it too, don't you? I myself like my food too much to look like Arnie, but better health and more energy is always worth it, no matter if you're swinging a sword, staying up late or just getting through the day.

Progress will be fairly fast at first, but gradually will plateau out. It's a lot easier to go from forty to fifty pounds than it is to go from two hundred and forty and two hundred and fifty. Trust me on this, I know first-hand.

It's a beautiful, beautiful thing :D

I agree, I haven't got that far, but five pounds makes all the difference.

Gosh, to think I can only lift 10 pounds with my legs (I have strap-on-weights), I feel like a wimp. o.o
How do you guys do it? I'd be curious.

Um, well, genetically guys are more likely to have a higher muscle mass and we have testosterone which promotes muscle growth and when you're pumping iron it increases your agression and makes the job easier.

Well, duh. I happen to have to do the weightlifting so I don't land in a wheelchair in two years, so anything else than "I'm a guy that's why lol" would be highly appreciated. ;)

Are you asking for a scientific reason?

Or are you asking what kind of regimen I have?
