Okay, are you wanting to bulge up on muscle in your back, are you intaking protein? if so, how much? I have a sister who loves to lift weights like me, but does it to look more sexy, tone her self, but she does'nt like lifting heavy, because it tears her hands up, my hands are torn up, like if I am a red neck here in Arizona that works all damn day. Lol.

Like when I work out on my back, when I do my bent over rows, my hands rip apart easily, I eased into it. And I hate lifting gloves, they bug me alot. But here in the United States, at a sports authority or something, a belt cost 20 bucks or so I think. But over in Australia, I am not so sure.

Did you get lifting shoes, so you can do squats, ect? When I work out, I like to just wear no shoes, easier for me. But at school, the gym there, I wear shoes, don't think people like the smell of stinky feet.
