I have visible muscles in my arms for the first time in my life!

I was so excited that I just had to share.  This morning while I was brushing my hair I noticed that I could see the muscles moving.  Then I spent a few shameless minutes flexing and watching in the mirror.  I've been doing the program in NROLFW for the last 1.5 months and it seems to be working, which I already knew because for the first time since I was about 11 I can do a real, non-girl pushup.  Anyway I just wanted to share my excitement.

Congrats on your find! It's a very exciting thing! I too just found my muscles. :)

YAY!!! Congrats :] I totally know how you feel, my arms have always been wimpy, like I'd flex and tell my boyfriend to feel my bicep and he'd say "well, flex it!" AND I WAS FLEXING ALREADY! Haha. Pathetic little arms! NOW They are getting much more defined, and you can actually see them get BIGGER when I flex! HAha

Awesome!  Congrats on the muscle AND the pushup!

 

Go you!!  Congratulations!!

One week into New Rules and Pushups are killing me. Congrats!  I can't wait to get there!

Congrats. I am completely there with you on how great it feels the first time you see that muscle/defintion coming in for the first time. For the first time ever, I can actually see my abs in the mirror now thanks to re-working my diet and doing a lot of HIIT cardio.

Very cool on being able to do a push-up with real form too. I have a lot of respect for women who do push-ups the legitimate way. It has always bugged me when I see women doing push-ups on their knees.

Congratulations on the guns Smile

Congrats! It's a wonderful thing, isn't it? I just noticed a few days ago that my under arm jiggle went away! Now, my entire arm is firm.

Congratulations on the definition!! :)

A few weeks ago I frightened myself in the bathroom while I was washing my hands...I saw my arms in the mirror and there were these two balloons of biceps and flexing muscles in my lower arms.  Keep it up!!

How can I make walking fun?

You have to find a way to make exercise fun or else you won't do it. If you walk indoors on a treadmill, I recommend moving outdoors into the fresh air... Read more
