those are for serious workout people.. u can join some gym and do some normal weight lifting first.. squats and deadlife isn't for starters.. u hurt ur self.. u might get crippled for life.

i suggest the basic ones 1st. bench press, leg press, lateral raise, bicep curl bla bla.. i don remember the names rclxub.gif check out the net la..

or ask darklight hte pro thumbup.gif

What?????? Squats, deadlift and bench press ARE the BASICS!! Lateral raises are iso's.

Everything has a potential to get you crippled for life, even bicep curls. Where'd you get your facts from? I suggest you please edit your post so that people don't get completely wrong advice.

Drinking 500ml in one shot is impossible if you jus awake in the morning, of cos we can't get off the bed instantly n directly go to take a glass of water to drink, we should take a 5 mins seat on the bed then only get off, i tot this is common sense, don't u no?

Drinking 8 glasses of water is for a normal ppl without doing any hypertension exercises, this must also see the water needed by the ppl himself or herself (individually see, so i put a range 225 to 300ml). In contrary, if u are a athlete who do a lot of exercises of cos you need to drink a lot of water.  laugh.gif

What are you talking about? Squats, deadlift, bench press, all result in a momentary increase in BP. Define exercises which don't increase BP.

And as for your take in not taking in water the moment we get off bed? I wake up and i head straight to the kitchen for my morning shake of milk, oats, whey and fish oil. And the milk is 500ml.

And 8 glasses of water a day is normal under normal conditions. If you work in an air conditioned environment, you need more water to stave of dehydration. What about manual labor jobs?

Are you trying to tell me they should limit themselves to 8 glasses a day? Unless they're sufferring from a critical phase of congestive cardiac failure, i don't think your posts holds much validity.

However if you're talking in extremes, for a normal person, 30 glasses of water a day is too much, but i don't see what's wrong with a normal person consuming 10-12 glasses a day. I do, and that's not counting in my milk, which is also liquid.

i hardly sweat when doing weight training.

Doesn't matter. You're still losing moisture cos of dry air conditioning even though you don't see the sweat. Lots of water---- drink. smile.gif

Well, the thing is, we can't be too harsh. Some people may UNINTENTIONALLY make statements which we perceive as retarded. Our stance here is not to flame noobies but to correct them and to guide them. You may be surprised, newcomers might know some things which are new to us, so i try taking some things with an open mind, but retarded statements like muscles turning into fat are obviously stupid.

However, the recalcitrant ones who persist in being jackasses and continue to stand by their statements even when presented with proof which shows it to be contrary to their initial statments, those are the ones who need a good flaming or warning.

Hey dubaimax. Are you the guy who contacted me on Friendster? If that's you, nice post mate. Good to see you finally came here. Keep us updated on your progress. Btw, that's not my article, I'm just passing down useful things i pick up from my American friends. Kethnaab is a very knowledgeable member from bb.com. I've had the honour of him helping me customize my new 5 x 5 program.

yup darklight, i was the one. Thanks to you, notworthy.gif  all i needed was some good motivation!
and yes i've read most of Kethnaab's stuff. indeed, amazing knowledge!
i hope the guys here who had problems with their diet start reading on this forum and on bodybuilding.com - both are like the free encyclopedias. all you have to do is pick out what suits you and be determined to use the programs.

as for me..i finally started making stuff at home.
my daily meals are usually a mix of:
eggs
milk
oats
chicken breast (yes, i love nandos!)
turkey
peanut butter
cottage cheese
spinach
rice
lots of vegetables - lettuce, carrots..
fruits - atleast one everyday
water - i'm trying to get into the habit of carrying water with me everywhere i go, and i dont wait for my throat to get dry, i just drink the water anyways.(almost close to a gallon... its tuff, but its showing me results!!) oh and those who rely on soda - i was a cola addict. if u cant drink plain water, add some lemon or drop in a mint leaf in your water bottle. do anything just stay away from soda!

i've not yet stepped on the scale, i like to see large differences so i'm waiting till new years to see how much i've gained.
as for fat, i know what i'm eating, the rest i can see in the mirror wink.gif

so the rest of you who are still looking for 'what to eat when ur not sleeping'
well, go for some grocery shopping, turst me, its cheaper and healthier than you mamak!

best of luck guys!

PS: darklight - i'm still to start on RIPPETOE's program(-religiously) cuz i'm travelling a lot the whole day and the gym is an hour away from home, probably start serious workout in december.  do you think i should post my journal online here or let it stay in my diary? (í just dont like every tom jack and mark making stupid comments...)

Dubaimax, the regulars at this section aren't like some of the retards you find at Kopitiam or Cupid's. When they post, they give usefull feedback. They have the respect not to post any bullshit on anyone's journal and their comments will be constructive and useful. There are quite a lot of people here on Rippetoe's and Madcow's. A few names would be pizzaboy, carlsuen, joey kun, nezzy, etc, etc so they will know what you're going through. I suggest you start a journal here.

I suggest you pull your head out of your ass before making such posts again.

dubaimax. don't get so touchy. you need to ease up. you gotta realize in every forum there're a s s h o l e s everywhere full of jackass comments, even in the Western bodybuilding forums i post at. It's no different everywhere mate. You do know the rest of the regulars here are pretty professional. We may joke around but not to the point of giving detrimental advice like this guy here.

You see, to gain weight, you need sleep too. And that means not posting at weird hours like this.

This post is directed at bodybuilding enthusiasts:-

How serious are some of you guys about packing on weight? I know there're quite a few bodybuilding enthusiasts around here. I've checked out some of your journals. Almost all of you are not eating enough. And if you think you're getting in enough calories, you need to make sure calories come from good sources.
And an occasional cheat meal is needed, we're all creatures of habit, the body would adapt to eating strict 365 days a year.
Some of you guys who bodybuild, quite a few of your meals do NOT contain any protein, period. Maybe miniscule amounts from carb sources but that is grossly insufficient.
In order to prevent amino acid levels causing protein synthesis to become refractory you need to do bigger protein doses spread further apart. You can spread carb meals to maybe even thrice a day but you can't just have 3 quality protein meals a day if you want to pack on serious muscle.
I'm getting in 250-300 grams of protein a day. Go figure. And a minimal amount of that is from supplementation. Why do you think i can still maintain 17 inch arms even after losing almost 30 pounds of bodyfat? The key word is protein. Oh... and i consume a lot of fat (fish oil, natural peanut butter, flax seed, nuts) If you're thinking bak kut teh or roast pork, nope, i mean good fat. (This isn't keto to make things clear, personally i think keto diets are crap. Take a look at bb.com forums, most of the successful bodybuilders do not do keto).

Carb sources : oats, weetbix, even high GI carbs have a place to play in building quality mass. Nutrient timing is so important and underrated among many beginner trainees. Do some research.
