The amount of Vits I'm taking.... lol, I'd better NOT fall sick.

Lol, you realize that as a bodybuilder, i don't have functional strength, period. I bench 100kgs x 20 easy but you gimme a medium sized table and ask me to lug it up a 2 story building and I'm huffing and puffing like a steam engine.
Hell, doing extended CPR on a collapsed hypotensive patient almost killed me!

Sorry man, the muscle mass and flexibility thing, so not true. Lets be real for a moment, it's not likely you're gonna be as huge as Kai Greene. So, we'll look at gymnasts. Look up Yuri Van Gelder, Hiroyuki Tomita or Chen Yibing. All big in their own right, and I'm sure they're preeeetty flexible.

No la boss. The dancer has a point. If he's purely into dancing and not anything else intensive that may well be the perfect weight for him.

I trained at home for my first year and then I started going to gyms. Now can't afford to do at home anymore. Weight simply isn't enough and very limited stuff that I can do.

Thx elven.

Managed to Incline press 82lbs per side today for reps. Awesome. Catching up to you darkie. laugh.gif
Btw looking for a training partner for a week @ FF Leisure Mall.
*
No you won't. =) One set doesn't count. It's the volume that counts and my strength is still going up. Once you press the 100's for 5 straight sets and each more than 10 per set then maybe. =P

Fk... I can do 82lbs for 4 sets straight 10 reps pretty confident. Further than that imma try next week lol.

You do realize I'm now pressing 125's right? TF needs heavier dumbbells. But good luck!

It never fails to amaze me how much we have to eat to make infinitesimally small muscle mass increases. The human body really hates to put on muscle after a certain threshold.

The body doesn't want to build muscle, period.

Thx for the link Dan, what about size wise? I scared I'll look damn small after cutting. Starting cutting phase next week. No one who competes posts here anymore zzz...

You want some serious clout you need to bring up those lats. You're lacking in width badly but as for progress I cannot tell cos it could be the bad lighting. Take another round of pics and see.

345lbs x 6, slight help with 5th rep, more assist with 6th rep. Kept telling myself if that spotter fails I would die horribly.

Rep scheme was:-
Bar x 20
Bar x 20
95lbs x 15
135lbs x 15
225lbs x 6
275lbs x 6
315lbs x 6
345lbs x 6

Meh....

awesome man
you alternate your reps work?Cause I always though you go above 8 reps..
*
Nah. I'm on a low rep scheme. The body adapts after a certain amount of time so it's good to switch it up. I wanted to go heavy today so I kept my warm up sets low and heavy to prime myself for that lift. Else I'll be warming up with 225lbs x15-20 for a few sets.

watching you video is like a motivation to myself
lol  biggrin.gif

so currently i follow your advise to do high reps high volume,after a period of time
i might switch to 5 x 5 for some size and strength gain,giving body a shock..any insight or input ?
*
Lol i don't like 5 x 5. Tried it but I don't like it. Not a bodybuilder's routine. Good for strength yeah but not for bodybuilding imo.

One of my favorite snack or carb would be weetbix from sanitranium or woolworth home brand weetbix. Its very2 good and cheap. 1serving (2weetbic) has 20grm of carbs with only a gram of sugar. So if you're getting board with oats weetbix would be another choice and it dissolve in water faster compare to oats..

How I usually prepare my weet-bix

1. Mix salad + 4 - 6 weet-bix + 2 whole egg + little water and microwave them for  40 - 80sec.

Heh I pack that stuff when on call at the hospital in those small zipper bags. When you comin back? We're supposed
to train together. Nik and Preetie said you'll be back soon?

You don't have to thrust your hips so forward. You're getting a deadlift video filmed, not a porn act. =P How much was that?
