wtf is your point? explain how are we deviating

1. Yes, its normal. Don't need to freak out.

2. If you do fast, you are using momentum, not shocking your muscles. It is just like mopping floor, if u wipe fast, its as though you are painting, not cleaning.

3. Sometimes it depends how you position your self with the machine, or your foot position. But if you feel the pressure reaching your knees... you should reduce the weight. Don't rush on getting heavy. Despite being bad for knees, you should consume more quality food to maintain your joints.

4. No it doesn't.

5. No.

6. Yes.  Again similar to ans (3).

wow, so may different answers...anyways I'm just gonna touch point number 4. infact it was answered by thunderfoot for point number 3

no wrong in this, your tendon will eventually become stronger and thicker as the result from strength training, muscle grows along too. reason to cause injuries is bad form while performing an exercise.

To recover from a surgery or injury, strengthening exercise is part of physio therapy, normally you do resistance, and not heavy weight.
DOnt do by your own without consulting a physio

So i finally had access to a cheap gym. First time in my life i entered a gym.

1. Is it normal that the machine make a lot of noise when i release and drop the weight? The load of the machine collided because i released a little too fast and it kinda made some noise i dunno if it will spoil the machine.

2. What about the tempo of pushing and releasing the load? I saw on video tutorials those people usually carry the load and release slowly, but in the gym, i saw some of the other ppl doing it fast. I find it easier to do more when i do it fast too.

3. There was this leg pressing machine and when i used it, i tried to reach my maximum by setting it as heavy as possible. But when it reaches around 80 kg, when i push i feel the pressure in my knees, there was no pain but i can feel the pressure, i assume this is bad for the knees, no? Is it suppose to be like that? Cause i dont wanna end up having insufficient joint liquid when my time comes, like many sports athletics, our body cant secrete joint liquids right?

4. My friend told me that he needs to exercise in the gym to help recovering from his sports injury. So something is new here, i thought our body is suppose to rest while waiting for the injury to recover. How does gyming helps recovering an injury?

5. I am eating 3 eggs every day i work out in a gym. Is it enough?   

6. Sometimes when i work on the abs loading machine, instead of feeling the pressure on the abs, i feel part of it on my legs too, is that normal? Or does it means i am doing it wrongly?

already explained...I shouldn't be saying this. but i am new to this field, and i have things i dont understand. so i guess it explains everything, right no?

What i type in the reply, is a reply. Its really not a good idea to start reading from a reply.

1. control the weight. machine weights should not touch the bottom weights unless its the end of the rep. even so, lower it as slowly as you can. dropping weights is just plain rude.
2. people are doing it fast because its easier. always control the negative portion of the rep, dont drop it down.
3. when you do a jump dont you feel the pressure as well? dont worry about it, just dont go too heavy too fast.
4. ask your friend? though from experience, i have recovered from knee injury. lifting weights might have be a factor.
5. no.
6. depends on the machine.
its a reply to a topic thread started by you in regards of the topic. tell me how is it deviating, unless you deviated yourself? i read from the beginning, who do you know reads from the middle of the thread? i just didnt have the time to reply to all your questions just now.

what i dont get is why would you post this in a bodybuilding thread when you specifically said you weren't interested in bodybuilding?

college gym =.= rm1.20 per hour but u can use it 2-3 hours no one cares, they dont check also. but i dont think anyone would want to hit the gym for 2 hours above.

only students can use lol

1. what i mean is i release the load too fast and the upper load collided into the btm load and make noise.
5. im not into bodybuilding, i go to gym to enchance sports performance, faster stronger fitter but not bigger. i mean growing big is eventually unavoidable but i dont want to become like arnold or having robotic movements.

but i dont want to become like arnold or having robotic movements.
