use deodorant if the sweating bothers you.

I will. Just wondering if it is normal.

It's normal. I do sweating a lot even after using deodorant.

once i started gaining some quality mass, i began to sweat really bad. even walking makes me sweat alot.
though ive always sweated alot.. just more now.
weight deodorant. always carry a small towel/handkerchief (for wiping sweat). and wash clothes often to avoid pit stains

so i will take it as a positive effect since it show i have started gaining "quality mass"?

hehe

Guys, my body are looks like i workout, i got some mass, but my forearms are like guys that don't even lift. I got a small joint wrist. My forearms are like chopstick. Only do hypertrophy forearms workout on arms day for 5 minutes thou. Any guys here have small joints body types that made it through ? do share

deadlift. dont use straps.

I deadlift raw

how heavy? ever failed on grip?

Yes i do failed on grip, 40kg, not daring enough to go heavy. Scare of stunt growth, form not so sure correct but learn from videos.

=.="

yeah go for hypertrophy exercises.

Haha my deadlift are very weak yeah

It's a myth. Unless you broke/slipped a few disc on your spine, then it's all good to do deadlift. GO heavy on deads, RAW.

Do you wear straps when you lift whiskey bottles? Must be exhausting after the 20th one.

Alright, buff looking uncle in the gym (he works there, not sure as what) gave me some advices about the angled smith machine (yes, no squat rack, have to make do). He said I should face the other direction from what I'm doing. I've did my fair share of research before deciding my 'correct' direction.

I'm facing away from the machine like below pics.




While he said I should face the opposite direction, facing in to the machine. I've looked around BB.com, I can see some or most agreed on my current direction (refer above pics) instead of the opposite (uncle's advice).

I guess he's the one who assembled the machine and he should be the trainer/owner there.

I need 3rd party opinions, thanks

i think u can face the way like in the picture, provided if youre doing high bar squat. if doing low bar, face inside? =S get a power rack best haha.

So from what you're saying is, both ways can be correct, provided I find a good comfortable form for myself? I've asked the gym twice, they have no plans to get one. There's simply no place for them to put it.

Hey guys... There is no nearby gym. Thinking of buying dumb bell and bar bell for weight lifting at home, mainly to reduce my weight and aim for my tummy too. So, where should I start first, I mean bar bell, dumb bell? Because I read weight lifting reduce fat so fat. Sorry for spoon feeding, my internet doesn't allow me to check most of the website out there?

imho if i am to choose between the two..i choose dumbell, because your joints can move more naturally..not too prone to injury
but it really doesnt matter much really..u should use both.
to burn fat you can also do interval type training..like sprints, circuits, HIIT, those insanity type workouts. Dont do slow cardio..
