Machines are good too - you can really push yourself to maximum exertion (to where you are jello on the last rep of each set).

This 5-minute video shows the power of lifting intensity.

A lot of people who lift are just "going through the motions", instead of "pushing your body to the new limit".

Have you visited the Midwest?

Which places in the Midwest would you like to visit?

What lifts are you doing?

If you focus on compound lifts (bench, chin-ups, squats), and push them to your limit, you will burn an insane amount of calories.

  • Hey - a lot of lifters would love to be in your position (you already have additional mass to convert to muscle!)

As for losing weight - my buddy lost 35lbs in 6 months, just by eating paleo (all natural foods).

On top of that, if you go for a full-sprint every day (or a mile jog), it will kick your metabolism into another gear.

Liftoff is an amazing app.

Also - your list has the old invite link for Liftoff.
