guys.. wnt to ask, i wnt to start my diet for tmrrow, no more rice for me.. so gonna buy chicken breast.. should i serve it half or full breast for my mkn?

Sifus
Let's just say i worked on my Chest, Shoulders and Triceps on Monday
Biceps, Abs and Back on Tuesday
Today's wednesday, and i'm planning to work on my Chest, Shoulders and Triceps once again
But the thing is, those muscle group had 48 hours of rest but they're still aching
Chest ache if if my hands are straight, i move my left hand to my right thighs. right hand to my left thighs if you know what i mean
Triceps ache if my hands are straight
Shoulder seems fine i guess
Should i work those muscle group out or should i rest and prob work out on legs or do some light cardio?
Thanks

How many times are you doing chest shoulders and triceps? 3x a week?? Not only is it excessive its counterproductive.

Do legs, then take a break tmr.

Working out without sufficient recovery time is a recipe for a sub-par workout.......you may as well take a rest or work another part and hit it with a vengeance when fresh.

Twice per week
Thanks btw!

DJJD: How long do u take to complete your workout? because i can see u train 3 parts at once...

Nope I only train one-two bodyparts a day but I train 5-6 days a week (cos I got no life yo!)

Chest (+ 1 set triceps)
Back (+ 1 set forearms/biceps)
Legs (Quads + Hams)
Shoulders (+ calves)
Arms (bi+tri)
Plus One (this is a special day in which I keep as a "spare" to work on what I wanna focus on. For example, I may do back twice a week if I feel some areas are lagging, or chest. Sometimes I do high freq low weight work, sometimes just BW workouts and sometimes if I'm tired just a little core work + cardio). Help keeps it interesting and spices it up a little.

Rest day (cardio at home, or swimming).

All in all usually 1 hour max at the gym, but never less than 45 mins.

There shouldn't be any reason why you are only resting 24-48 hours between heavy chest/tri work......

Space it out more, but hit the weight room harder.

What if i workout my Chest, Shoulders and Triceps when its still aching a lil' bit. Will it effect my muscle growth?

Hard to say, everyone is different.

From my experience it will definitely mess with your performance - but thats just me.

The better question is, why would you feel so concerned about doing chest tri n shoulders again when you havent done legs? Don't have chicken legs bro.

I feel like working out my Chest, Shoulders and Triceps because i missed one Chest, Shoulders and Triceps workout last week, thats why
I will never leave my legs, that why i dont worry about legs much

The iron game is measured in years not days weeks or even months.

Dont worry about one missed workout too much, especially if youre still sore. Instead hit another part with a vengeance.

No leg day in between?

Less is sometimes more. Let the muscle heal properly before you are going to workout on that part again.

Legs it is! Thanks guys

Woah, since my lower back have not recovered i pergi gatal tangan belajar power cleans, dahnak elok and then end up sakit balik. Not really painful la compared to weeks ago. I hope it will recover by monday, i miss squats so bad

oh my tendonitis almost hilang, did some light shoulder press today!

end up doing everyday

- Push ( Bench / Shoulder Press ) 45sec - 1 min rest
- Biceps and forearms ( BB Curl and DB Curl ) or Triceps works ( Pushdown, CGBP and Skullcrushers )
- Pull Ups for high volume (5x10) for 1 min rest each set

everything end within 1 hour

its hard for me not doing any pull activities and pushing feels awkward man plus i hate doing isolation, too many reps

Orang kata jangan buat, buat jugak!

seminggu tak main, sekarang sakit balik

nak berhenti sakitkan lower back sampai Isnin - Selasa

harap harap dapat

btw puasa how

upin and ipin punya sedara nie....hehehe

this may sound like a stupid question..but what is the ideal bodyfat % to start bulking? I just calculated mine, 15%..should I cut more or just straight bulk up? I did some research online and most of them said that 13%-14% is the sweet spot, but then everybody is different right?

What does the mirror say?

can anyone suggest me any good back workouts? since i have a lower back problem now the only thing that i can think of doing now is lat pulldown, chest supported rows and pull ups.

Added on July 12, 2012, 7:38 pmwhat i did back then before i fall in love with foods and just enjoy lifting while maintaining bw or just raise 1-3kg max ( i still eat trying to eat right tho )

note: my bw will go down easy when i'm in Uni

Bulk up till 15% then cut to 10-12% then do the same thing over and over again

not to mention i am skinnyfat after cutting last time due to shi*ty diet, after reading about all those diet threads and books i have the info but i don't have the time and money to do that now ( living with parents so have to eat what they eat or they will get butthurt )

anyways
