Right bicep lifts 10kgs, 10 reps. left bicep lifts 10kgs, 6rep
Left chest is bigger than right chest
My left shoulder is higher than my right shoulder hence, making my right hand longer my 1cm
this sucks ~_~

obviously your left bicep is weaker. why not train on 7.5kg dumbbell first? Im pretty sure your right can do like 15-20 reps for 7.5kg but can your left do the same? train your left first to cope with your right.

Oh, I was right.  For weight, it has to be the opposite compared to the other machine.  the heavier the easier.
What about the hand grip given that there are 3 different positions at the top.  which is for which?

The different handles are just for variations of pullups. They will all work your back and biceps to an extent.

It's up to preference. Some people prefer different grips due to joint issues, etc. Ultimately you still reach the same goal.

I would say that you need to plan properly. You have to eat your sahur, make your meal with plenty of carbs to increase your muscle and liver glycogen store (you will need these glycogen for daily activity and exercises). I would recommend you to either train on:

1. Almost the break fast time. Probably ending around 6.30 pm or a bit later than that. You won't be able to drink any fluid during your exercises and that would make you dehydrate. So, by exercise almost near to break fast, you can drink lots of fluid in short time.

2. Another one that I would recommend you is to exercises after terawih. Break your fast normally with protein and carbs but don't eat like normal people would do (eat a lot until too full). Then after you terawih, head to the gym. After gym eat a big meal then sahur another meal.

I believe casein would help a lot as well. And slow carbs.

Slow carbs? yea. Good idea smile.gif

Because I am planning to workout before the break fast time. So, i should load my self with slow carbs during 'sahur' time.

Do you guys reduce the weight during this fasting month? Or change the workout? like less intensity maybe?..
