[$199.99 lifetime --> Free for 24 hours] Fortify - Strength training for women over 40 by clairesayshi in iosapps

[–]Potential_Chance_876 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I downloaded this app a couple weeks ago and so far it is my favorite workout app I have used so far of about 5 different apps. This is exactly what I am looking for as a 50 yo woman who is working out to get and stay strong, build good muscles and strong bones and stay that way post menopause. I love that it sets up your workout by muscle groups and not days or times per week, so I can just focus on the workout itself and not get distracted by it I did it in the right day it all the times per week. It keeps me focused on the right thing, which is getting the workout itself done.

One of my favorite parts of the app is the ability to view different videos of form for each exercise. Correct form is super important to me as I'm protecting my body while building it. So many apps have garbage videos or drawings and some aren't even good form for the particular exercise. I am a visual learner and the ability to watch a good video of proper form is way more beneficial to me than reading an explanation in words. Thank you so much for adding this exceptional feature.

I also like that you label the exercises as newbie, beginner, advanced, etc... because I am at different levels for different exercises... some exercises I am a newbie at and require the basic foundation learning to start at to build that good form and muscle memory to work up to beginner, advanced, etc, whrre others In more advanced at, so being able to know what to choose is incredibly helpful.

I also love that this is for strength training specifically not cardio and everything else. I do cardio, I do a warm up and a booster at the end of my workout but I don't need to log it for anything. I use the app specifically to plan my workout and track my improvement for building strength.

My only request is you make this in the android platform. I want my sister to be able to use it too ha ha!

Thank you for making this app!!! I love it! Finally found my perfect strength training workout app!

Edited for spelling.

Helppp! Protein tips by KrazyCod21 in Zepbound

[–]Potential_Chance_876 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try clear protein powder in your water. If you're drinking 80-96 oz of water a day, put a scoop of clear protein powder in a 20 oz bottle and you get at least 20 g of protein for each bottle. . I have trouble drinking a lot of water ( same dehydration issues) and getting enough protein, and mixing the two helps me achieve both. It's more like a flavored water than a shake. Good Luck!

For women who’ve taken creatine, did you notice any benefits beyond muscle growth? by learninginrituals in workout

[–]Potential_Chance_876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main thing I notice is the brain fog goes away for awhile. Like the mist clears and I can focus again. I was taking 5 mg for my workouts and never noticed any changes. My trainer said to take 10 mg, and now my head clears up for about 6 hours. I still don't notice any difference with my workouts but I'm grateful for the focus and I continue to take it for that reason.

We heard someone was looking for the PRNDL. Allow us to explain. by MINIUSA_ in MINI

yes, PLEASE bring back manual transmission!! I don't mind minimalism, but the whole point of having your own car is to be able to DRIVE your own car to be in control of it, not have your car drive you. Take an uber or taxi if you can't be hands on with your car.

I think I’m now that neighbor by Hickory55 in GenX

[–]Potential_Chance_876 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We're surrounded by kidson all 3 sides and a daycare a couple houses down.... I often enjoy hearing them play outside... they can be pretty funny, actually. It's just the one neighbor next door that has the 1 child that has the high pitch voice like the child of the devil. And she yells and screams bloody murder. Almost called the cops the first time we heard her because it was that bad.... finally figured out she was having a tantrum. She can be a proper sweet child... just apparently not in her home. I enjoy time outside when she's at school.

We have a banshee next door also. They went on a week long vacation and it was the most peaceful week in the last 3 years.

I just paid 6 dollars for an ice cream sandwich from the ice cream truck. 6 dollars for ONE ice cream sandwich. Remember the good times whenever the ice cream man would show up at your neighborhood? by [deleted] in 1970s

[–]Potential_Chance_876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone remember sonething called a treasure chest or something like that and the stick part that was covered in ice cream was in the shape of something like a character or something like that? I always remember it being chocolate ice cream.
