Hi guys, I'm currently having 20.44% of body fats, mainly on my tummy. So, I guess for visible abs I must have below 15 % body fats? How long does it take to deduct 5% of body fat with everyday 50x2 skipping rope cardio?

I'd say crunches really work for my upper ab, but my tummy still there. Wanna get rid of that ! Is duckie walk a good cardio exercise ? |

I see sarcasm is the order of the day.
Anyway, if a person isn't strong enough to attempt pullups\chinups, should he try to perform it or should he try to strengthen his muscles first? |

Pokeat,
Well, I didn't say crunches don't work. Just that they are not the best exercise for people who sit a lot. If it works for you, then it's good. Please do back bridge in between your crunches ya. For your back's sake. If you duck walk for a mile, then yes... it's a good cardio. If duck walk for 5 minutes, then you [if you're 50kg] probably just burned up 50-100 kcal (which is like 1 batang of banana). 15 floors of staircase in 5 minutes just burns 50++ kcal for me. stich, Frankly speaking, 50x2 of rope skipping is not a lot. That's about 1-2 minutes. Maybe you want to consider repeating 10x ? (I simply put a number there. You pandai-pandailah scale it to your ability). |

Thanks for answering my question,
50x2 is putting alot burden on my bottom leg muscle, I'll slowly increase to 200,300 and so on. How long do I need to burn 5% body fat from 20% to 15% with around 10 minutes of rope skipping per day? |

QUOTE(Gr3yL3gion @ Jun 21 2009, 12:00 AM) I see sarcasm is the order of the day. If you can't do a single pull up, or very few, gain some strength first and work up to them. There're a few exercises for working up to full pull ups.Anyway, if a person isn't strong enough to attempt pullups\chinups, should he try to perform it or should he try to strengthen his muscles first? |

So exactly how and what muscles do you intend to strengthen, in order to achieve the pull-ups?Anyway, if a person isn't strong enough to attempt pullups\chinups, should he try to perform it or should he try to strengthen his muscles first? |

Pull ups targets mainly the back, so my guess is core and arm strength is important for doing pull ups?
Thanks for the video -Dan, I'm getting excited about pull ups now, thinking of getting a bar for it later, lol. |

hi guys.. going off topic here bcoz im not familiar in using LYN forum. juz to ask i've been going toning program for about 3months in the gym now. and i want to focus on muscle building as far as i know, i shud target 1 muscle at a time. but there are so many muscles to train biceps,deltoid,triceps,abs, leg,lat, back etc how do you train all those in a week's time. even if u could, those muscles are trained once a week only is that sufficient? thanks alot..

I am about 180cm and I weight about 58kg. I'm skinny and I hunch. I'm looking to build my chest to straighten my posture and also to build some muscles. I signed up for Celebrity Fitness but haven't started goin yet. Any advice on what to start working on and how? Thanks |
