off topic- minrott i like you as a poster/personality but I have to say I hate your name it sounds so gross. min rott. I just don't associate your name with you.

on topic- I have a question about legs. Does anyone know anything about the medical condition "restless leg?" I mean, I don't need info on it because I"ve done that-I just mean does anyone know anyone with it, or have you ever heard of it?

I heard the name of the condition two times within a week and had never heard of it before even though I went to nursing school. Is this some new condition or have I been under a rock.

Err yeah your right, I was searching for the heaviest bench press and that was the only thing that came up but then I searched for 800 pound bench press and a 1,000 pound pench press result came up>< ok I think the heaviest bench is by Rychlak.

That seems to be a girl thing. Same with my gf. Can walk/jog/stairmaster forever, but her arms are so weak its ridiculous. I tell her shes gonna get the swingin underarm flab thing if she doesnt shape up :boots:

walk jog and stair master have very little to do with leg str and more about the bodies ability to get rid of latic acid while working in a cardio type work out.

Kizzy!

3, 5 & 8 lb weights. All you have to do is get a video-or dvd-preferably one by The Firm, because they are the shit. Follow the toning exercises with those weights, starting with none at first. then go up.

I noticed my arms toning and getting stronger within weeks. I even saw my lats-and my shoulder blades starting poking out like they did when I was a kid, which meant my boobs were more firm and my underarm flab went away. (see flabby arm in my gallery-the one where I"m in a skirt at the ACLFest.) My arms don't look like that anymore they are toned and sexy ^^

the ONLY thing i did was use those weights/The Firm (and I only did half of the workout even...cause I would get tired of doing it hehe.)
