DOMS is one of the indicators that give out signal that you worked your muscle hard. but as time goes by, you'll become immune to DOMS. So thats when workout journal come in handy.

Went to gym, saw this guy with the same height as me and looks like Stan McQuay, spiky hair and styled facial hair, and he's huge...seeing him makes me feel so jealous inside.

How do you guys manage to tahan seeing people bigger than you?

i just used to it..since 96% of people at my gym huge than me.

Here's another I was in the gym just now thing...

I was in the gym just now and I was on the bench doing DB shoulder presses facing the mirror, this guy came and stood very near beside and behind me and I could see him on the mirror, half way into my rep this guy grabbed his T shirt and flashed his abs towards the mirror. That's when I really understand how the ladies feel when they got flashed by some psycho person in public.

Why people can't be humble and need to grab some attention out in the open?

Why the gyms I go are always so happening?

you went to ghetto gym?

Are you bulking??

How about you follow a preset program such as Madcow 5X5 ?

Stronglifts is just a copycat of Bill Starr's 5x5.
Any form of programming, with linear increment, will be good.

i guess i'm going to follow that madcow 5x5. more simple i think.

guys, i just realized today that my face doesnt have enough "isi" and it doesnt look great. if i continue my bulking, will it added some "isi" to my face and neck area? i'm sorry but i still new in this thing and i thought the only thing that will grow is the part where you worked out. i really hope my thought is wrong here.

If mere cosmetics, yeah. The barbell rows, work more on the saggital plane.

The issue with pull-ups is too many people, don't use their backs. I learned the best way on how to use the back was by this method;

- Close grip chin-ups (recruits the lower lats better)
- Hang with arms completely straight and loose (Elbows must be able to shake)
- Hang for a few seconds, till I feel the stretch in my lats
- Pull up fast and how as long as possible at the highest point, at the mid point, and the point just before the lowest.

I'll do this for a few reps. Then I get the feeling and then repeat. Usually, straps help to get this sensation best.

by mere cosmetics you mean there will be no increase in strength?

After finished working out, the gym owner ( who used to be my trainer ) accidentally saw me writing what i workout today in my log book. so he catch a glimpse and said to me that its not suitable for us to do 5 reps x 5 sets. he says that it suitable for westerners more and we, asians more suit to 6 reps x 4 sets which we need to increase load every set. I don't know whether its true but i'm going to try it this saturday. he said it will increase growth faster than 5x5.

guys, i wonder is it okay for me to stick to the same weight for 2 weeks since my gym only have 2.5kg plate the lightest. since stronglift recommend 2.5kg per week, i plan to do 5kg 2 weeks meaning first 2 weeks is using same weight then 3rd weight is only increase 5kgs. is it okay?

stronglift 2.5kg per week? dude, it is 2.5kg increment each workout, 1 week 3 workout, it is total of 7.5kg increment weekly

do it 5kg increment weekly. as long as you use the good form you will still gain.

yeah. i mean 2.5kgs each workout.
