Hi guys,

I pushed myself hard during my workout on Sunday. Shortly afterward, the left-side of my head started to feel very painful.

I thought it was just a one-time event so choose to ignore it.

But then it happens again when I lifted some barbells and tried to push myself hard. It only affected the left side and not both. Feel like the my body did not pumped enough oxygen to this part. I resorted to doing lighter workout afterward.

Have you guys ever encounter with this kind of problem during workout? What can I do to solve this?

if anyone here interested

eggs are a good source of protein.

white rice = simple sugars which is convert to fats if not use.
simple sugar breaks down easily, causing a sugar rush in ur blood stream...

u get complex sugars from wholemeal food stuffs like oats or wholemeal bread which is what u wan.

dude, u quoted my msg...but anything wrong?

do let me know if anything is wrong so i can learn too....

no offence intended, jus wanna learn

If ur going, do share what he has to say.

ah..i see..i would recommend more carbs and protien for ur breakfast though..most important meal of the day..

can i know power balance wrist band helps in liftings or not? today i saw ppl selling @ fitness center lol

Straps are useful when your grip is about to give way. Only use them sparingly as you need to build grip strength. Don't be like the delicate yobs who wear thick gloves when curling 5kgs. Only ever use them when really necessary.

I use Harbinger straps and they work superbly. I'd like to get me a pair of these once my current straps have kicked the bucket.

You can find them at the Curve, top most floor. Err. I forgot which store number, sorry.

power balance wrist bands = some really dumb stuff and huge ass scam, apparently it can resonate with your natural energy field to increase strength , balance and power?!?!?! coupled with advertising with a few world class athletes and it's selling like hot cakes. I have a few friends that bought it and I threatened them to return that bull crap at knife point, which luckily they did before blood was shed.

seriously what has gotten into mankind, have we turn into mindless lazy slobs thinking that a freaking band with some reflective hologram is going to improve your strength levels ?!!!?!!?!!?!!?

we got cup noodles
we got biscuits
we got 3 in 1 instant mixes
we got abs strap that will exercise for you
we got liposuction
we got tonnes of "hope giving" supplements on store/for sale

go figure.

Addendum!

Now Imma gonna use my pendant and go deadlift 800Lbs with 1 hand.

Shoulders play the stabilizing role in doing dips.
and what do you mean by saying "doing too low"?
upper arm parallel to floor or slightly below parallel to floor is deemed as correct form.
but that is if everything else is also done properly with out elbows flaring out and such SHOULD NOT hurt the shoulders.
if shoulders pain means form is not right.

thanks alot for your reply
means when dipping,elbow should keep inwards?
well i mean going too low is when i leaning my chest outwards and i really go all the way down

my left knees feel akward when doing front squat
form should be alright,knees not over toes...weird..weight overload?

i dunno how to explain the elbows just with text, and i dun have pics with me.
u can search online on the form... or basically, i tjust means elbows dont move in/out at all when doing dips

awkward as in pain?
if pain means form is wrong, or ur knee is not in good shape (injured before?)
full squat? parallel squat?
got do enough warm ups?

pseudoscience =S

lol i is the pendant same concept as power blanace? alot of my friend wearing the pendant which cost RM600+

the pendant i used before for 2 weeks. my friend lend me to see whether it has effect or not.

i got positive result during 3PM-5PM working hour, usually i'll be tired and wanted to sleep. while using it i felt ok, no tiredness.

but i think it depends on the user-body.

It's called a placebo.

its parallel,to 90 degree
well just now i went to try again
i try to open wider,and remove all the stress to hip and quads.it seems MUCH better
