Thought about increasing the weight as mike huan pointed out earlier and yourself. But I am just learning the form first now. Yeah I realise the olympic barbell equals 45lbs. The weight stated is inclusive of the barbell weight. Tq. Main problem now is making time for gym.

Almost 3 weeks without any exercise. Gout attack. Until today still could not walk properly. Luckily, The worst stage had passed (I think). Hopefully everything goes back to normal by next week.

continue and never stops! good luck to you! cause im doing the same thing too, just u give u some motivation, i lost 11kg from 94kg- 82.8kg in around 3-4months with just jogging 45-1hour daily and healthy diet, keep it up man!

Just an update.. almost 2 months suffering from gout attack. Last friday I got the urate reading and they are still high >600 (whateer the unit). But the stabbing pain is now much less. So I can actually put more weight on my right leg now and it is more freely moveable. I had started doing body weight exercise again that does not involve much leg. So, more on pumping, pull ups and tricep bench dips for now. Definitely no-no for 5x5 yet.

On another note, I have lost 5 kgs now.. this is strictly due to cutting down on my excess diet.. well actually more due to noappetite since there are too many stuffs that I have to stay off from due to gout.

how the workout now?

i think he gave up :3. lol joke. after looking at his journals, i bet his working very hard .

i believe he improved much on fitness

woooo... not giving up yet. but just doing lighweight stuff since can't really put weight on my leg. the gout attacke last month susided. but new attack at the toe joint. Just now as I was walking, hit something at the toe and I almost fall down.

Now only doing vertical push up and jacknife pull up. Even than it hurts, as when pull up, the muscle stiffen including the toe. Damn painful. Another note, another proof that pull up works the whole body...

Can't wait to get better. Too boring like this.
