For breakfast, I take bacons and eggs. French toast sometimes with peanut butter and orange juice.

Lunch, it depends what I can get my hands on but mostly chinese food with rice.

For dinner, I eat almost two and a half bowls of rice(more is not a problem) a day with chicken breast meat and vegetable mix. Alternatively, I eat spaghetti with chicken breast meat or dice beef.

Anything wrong with this? hmm.gif

What you're eating isn't the problem right now, it's how frequently you're eating. Like pedro said, eat more meals in a day.

umm.... i really think the juice thing is a joke loh lol.
i really went to google ur apple for bicep, kiwi for tricep etc (LOL!!!) and theres no sources that i can find to support that...

i really think its an analogy ur using to say u just dont train bis and tris together on d same day. hehe
and that any juice is fine? cos the carbs and sugars in the juice are good fuel for workout, doesnt matter what juice? lol

here is an apple link! http://www.buzzle.com/articles/losing-weig...ith-apples.html
i dont know bout "burning" calories apart frm the thermic effect of food, which will b present with whatever food you consume (hey even if u went n ate cheesecake and burgers and fries it wld still hv thermic effect!) but the reasoning here is that apples make u feel full faster so u dont eat as much.

It has become quite apparent that by not doing close grip bench presses, be it flat, incline or decline, has resulted in the mid section (longkang lol) of my chests being underdeveloped...

A rough layout of my chest day routine. I sometimes substitute dumbbells for the bench presses.

Flat barbell bench press
Incline barbell bench press
Decline smith bench press
Cable flyes
Flat / Incline Dumbbell flyes
Dips
Dumbbell pullover
Finished with few isolation exercises

Guess I have to include close grip bench presses from now onwards....

Edit: If I am wrong, please enlighten me bros. As I do know that close grip bench presses mainly target the triceps.

i believe the gaps in pec is genetic.
pectoralis muscle (major/minor) are divided into horizontal fibres. not vertically.
i think u cant really train a muscle bundle just at its certain ends.
there is upper and lower or mid but not inner/outer.
either u bulk your pec more by training, hoping the gains would properly cover that gap, or just deal with it.
i maybe wrong. pulled these out of my ass from common knowledge i got from my anatomy classes.

there is no pectoralis inneris.

Debt-ridden bodybuilder all set to win international title

Bodybuilder Nandkumar Shinde is going to represent India in the Mr Universe contest, a bodybuilding championship, in Germany this week.
But, the 42-year-old national level gold medallist is neck-deep in debt. “I lost my job a few months ago as the company I worked for closed down,” said Shinde.
“I had to take a hefty loan from the bank and mortgage my home to pay for my trip to Germany. My wife sold all her jewellery and I had to take money from my relatives.”

Unhappy with the lack of support from the state, Shinde is determined to win the title to create more awareness about the sport. He is one of the eight other contestants from the country who will participate in the contest, which is to be held from November 26 to 28.

Shinde was honoured with the titles of Bharat Shri, Maharashtra Shri and Thane Shri in bodybuilding. He, however, had to take a four-year break due to financial problems. He has a lot riding on the Mr Universe contest.

“I have taken a loan of more than Rs 2 lakh to fund my training. The cost of tickets and other requirements for the contest have already crossed Rs 1.5 lakh,” he said.

With a family and two children to take care of, Shinde had filed an application with the state government and even approached local politicians in Thane and Mumbai for funds, but was disappointed by the response.

The average monthly expense for a bodybuilder is around Rs 50,000.

It includes a daily diet of 50 eggs, 2kg chicken, 0.5kg fish, fruits, salads juices, steroids, and other dietary supplements.


Apart from this they also have to pay gym fees as eight hours of daily workout is a must.

“Most of the suburban bodybuilders are hard working and talented, but they lag behind in major events due to lack of sponsors or funds. Except a few hailing from wealthy families, most of the boys are drowning in debts,” said Shinde.

“The state should at least provide low-cost gyms for players in small towns as not everyone can afford private ones.”

In an attempt to provide a platform to such players, Shinde has started an economical gym for young boys who can’t afford plush ones.

Optimistic about his win in the contest, Shinde said: “My family has supported me unconditionally. I will give my best for them and my
country.”

Wow 50 eggs a day!!!

You need mens health for that?
Just go Youtube and search for ghetto workouts.
Rear chicken,eat the eggs then eat the chicken.....repeat

Alternatively just get something bigger,like beef!

I think your mental performance the next day is more related to the sleep you're getting than the workout from the previous day.

Most of the time, I feel better after my workout than before. But if we're talking about next day mental after-effects, previous day workout should have minimal effect. The only time I've ever felt crappy after-effects originating from a workout was when I was over-exerting instead of my usual routine. *cough* Marathon *cough*

Hmm, all that workout for chest in a single visit? how many sets and reps do you do for each exercise? judging from ur avatar and assuming u're still the same size. U're pushing urself too much brother. u could be ovetraining unless u're sneaking in some external substance to help you out with the recovery. if not, i'd really suggest with 4-5 exercise max for ur chest.

here's a reference for ur benefit:

Nah man... The avatar is very old, 3 years back at least, just can't be bothered to change it.

The routine is if I do incline on that chest day, I won't do decline, vice versa. Flat bench press is definitely included. If I do cable flyes, I won't do Dumbbell flyes.

So it'll end up being.

Incline bench press
Flat bench press
Cable flyes
Dips
Dumbbell pullover
Finished with isolation exercises

External substance? heh.. Nah man, I only take whey and casein.

Edit: For sets and reps, I have stuck to a 12-10-8 reps formula for the past 3 months. When this gets easy, I increase weights and do 8-8-8 until I can perform 12-10-8 with ease. Occasionally after the 3 sets, I go heavy and do sets of 3RM.

Okay, quick rant here: the recently relocated Menara Maxis Fitness First has moved to Avenue K. Godawful place. Anyway, I goes in to get a cursory feel of the place as I was actually heading home. It was packed to the brim as today was the first day of the completed relocation. I check out each section quickly and oh my goodness it was a total mess!

Machines were in a little quadrant of space, it looked crammed as heck. Then I walk further. There's a little space for TRX thingy (the one with bands), pretty cool I admit. Then another set of machines, this time spaced well but still had "crammed" feel. Then the weights section. WTH? IT was tiny and it looks like they brought the short benches with them. Equipment was recycled as expected but c'mon let's have some new stuff.

Anyway, unless my eyes have deceived me, the power rack was missing. And you know what that means, right? Yes, no deadlift or squats! This is blasphemy! I hope I'm wrong. I'm going in tomorrow to get a better taste of the new place but first impressions have left a really sour taste in my mouth.
