LoL well I prefer to be chubby tho    but will consider cutting down lo hahaha

Aussie has plenty of places for freestyle. Here we only have Mt. Kiara. That also more to XC and a lil DH. Braindead you could increase your squat poundages? 60kg really light leh.

actually i think i can do much heavier... probably in the regions of 80 kgs... but the thing is... i need to train for explosiveness, speed and agility....so im focusing on high reps...... need to be able to immediately stimulate the whole muscle on fast repitions... hence the jump squats and full squats.... i never do half squats cause that will limit my range of mobility in the long run

ive seen guys with huge quads.....t.h.e.y. a.r.e. s.l.ow....... not slow in  a straight line... but slow in changing direction and also pivot agility..... i need more muscle mass in my calves now due to the fact that i believe my calves are the weakest link..... if my calves output can match my quads.. ill be able to increase power output without increasing weight = higher jump + similar agility.... ............

Added on September 14, 2009, 5:25 pmactually i can clean about 60 kgs but i do it to begin my squat.... / military press...... have dun it b4... push press? whats that

Badminton shoes has a rubbery substance between as a shock absorbent. This isn't something you want, because it reduces the force transfer between the floor and you. An analogy?
Try jumping on sponges.

You won't be able to transfer force maximally and it's unstable as well.

Often they also cause you to have your feet (because of the protective shock absorbent padding), kinda like move inwards and can cause ACL tears. Not good at all. This is especially true, if you don't have good technique, and I maybe 80% of gym goers DON'T have good technique. Trust me on this one. So many times, I can see the flaws that you guys are doing, that's cutting your power short. EG: Diving into the hole and then straining out.


Your best bet? Go Bata and buy the north star school shoes. RM29.90

Hi, 1st time to be at this thread.

I remember when I was the heaviest, I'm 110kg. 
Then, I joined gym (for fun, at that time).

Later, got the semangat to lose some weights. I took 3in1 coffee + 4 or 5 scoops of Quaker's Oat every morning. And i skipped lunch, use up my lunch time to go to the gym. (People eat, I gym.) For dinner, I took in a bit more rice, to avoid myself from get hungry at late night for supper. Then, at the same time lots of my not-so-pro (but still more experienced than me lah) friend taught me. Here a bit there a bit.

Till recent few months, when i visit gym, i will first jog for full 20mins (with 1 or 2 rest in between).
Then, i do: Dumbbell Bench Press + Dumbell Shoulder Press + Barbell Curl + Preacher Curl + Pumping + Others (What crap also do).
Sequence sometimes not same lah. If got strength, will do all. Sometimes too tired, cant finish all.
Each exercise do 3 sets, 1 set 8-12 times.

The best weight I achieved was about 93kg. I took me about a year. Now, cuz stop gym for 1 month already. I still do some simple training at home. Eg: Dumbell Shoulder Press + Pumping + Sit up etc. But still gained back a little weight, back to 95kg.    Waddefark?

Want to ask, if I look my side from the mirror, i definitely look not-so-thick (as in big tummy) anymore. But from front, I can't see my waist getting smaller. May be not noticeable lah. I tried to add in Dumbbell Side Bend into my training. May be I'm impatient. But, i don't any noticeable improvement. 

Any advice or any training to recommend?

dont la like that i am new bah
so the answ is?

actually i wanna do squat and weight lifting but i dare not malu cz so many experts and geng ppl there dun wanna look stupid infront of them

jz like last time, when i started gym, i only did treadmill, till i observed observed and observed then only started slowly with other machines.

haha dan... dont worry... me too. =.=
maybe coz the stupid 180kg make me stop deadlifting for around 2 months. =.=
hahaha...

Serious shit man...I don't even know what carb cycling is. Haha, if you count basketball for an hour once a week as cardio. Honestly, I don't do much reading on the net and have almost no clue about dieting. I just read training articles occasionally and then piece together a workout that I think would work then do it. I can't live without having gravy or sauce on my food. Can't stand dry rice. Genes maybe lol.

is it diff for me to have body like this?

Squat, bench press, deadlift, military press, row.

Whatever your question from now on, i will reply as above mentioned
