QUOTE(yeah_guyz @ Sep 9 2009, 10:19 PM) why cannot tahan? i cant understand. dont be kia su la I used to have that complex: everyone is better than me and look at me lifting 10kgs and shouting like a girl. Then, I realised, they didn't get to where they are by magic, they got there with hard work (and a little thing called genetics). So I worked and worked on my own physique and whilst I'm in the best shape of my life, I still consider myself somewhat intermediately built; better than most, crappy compared to the better ones. most of the big guy in my gym have tiny leg and i am the only in squat rack I like your second paragraph the best. My legs aren't the biggest but they're, at the very most, solid-looking as compared to others. Though, my upper body still needs a lot of work to "beat" some of the guys at my gym. I guess doing chest and abs exclusively can do wonders for some. Shame about their ostrich-like legs, though... |

Found this myself:

QUOTE(shanecross @ Sep 10 2009, 07:21 AM) My understanding on endurance in terms of weights are getting in more repetitions in a set eg;3 sets of 15 . Grip strength ; grab the heaviest dumbbell in your gym and start doing dumbbell walks. Actually, I was referring to holding on to heavy weights or odd objects like rocks for loooooooooong periods. QUOTE(pizzaboy @ Sep 10 2009, 07:37 AM) Pinch a pair of 25LBS plates Dig your hand into sand and squeeze for reps. Do pull-ups, with 4-3-2-1 fingers. Load a bar with plates, and grab the thick (the sleeve) of the bar. Nice. Got it! QUOTE(kotmj @ Sep 10 2009, 09:28 AM) Do the one-armed suitcase deadlift. You have to grip the barbell really hard to balance it. The last time I did it, the plates fell off because I didn't secure the plates and lifted too fast. LOL! |

You feel like shit all the time and you feel tired all the time. |

Obliques, twisting, resist movements, flexion, upper, lower, middle, outer, inner, chaos, yadda... yadda... yadda...I do weighted exercises but moderate or low sets. Am wonderin cause my abs are always sore and yet I feel good. |

You feel like shit all the time and you feel tired all the time. but the one word that describes overtrain is fatigue like u cant even bench ur minimum poundages then thats the time u rest |

Just saw the fish oil post.
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/782200 I got mine here. Jarrows EPA-DHA Balance. Good stuff. If you're getting fish oil PLEASE DO NOT GET BULK PRODUCTS, because you don't know the purity of the stuff. You DON'T WANT MERCURY POISONING especially with all that fish oil you be poppin (like 2,000mg/day). Mercury poisoning is real. Just look at Jeremy Piven (not a bodybuilder, but okay) |

But then again if your body feels the need to recover, take a week off I might take a week off for now though. exams and been lifting for about 6 weeks since last off week. Should I deload? |
