I've just started with Body Building since April 2007 after few years of being a couch potato. Before that, I was kinda athletic with various sports activities. It was very unexpected to get sucked into carrying weights. Initially I joined a gym out of boredom in life and to occupy my ample time. Now I find myself feeling uneasy during my rest day. I'm currently consuming weight gainer and lift 3 times a week. No Cardio

QUOTE(King83 @ Jul 18 2007, 07:06 PM) King83 Thanks for the comment. I'll take your words together with me into the gym as a form of motivation to work harder. Apologize for not stating my goals in the previous post. My aim is to have a toned and lean body, therefore I'm taking it slow with bulking. I'll stop as soon as I am satisfied with what I see on the mirror. I would like to gain another 5kgs at the moment. QUOTE(darklight79 @ Jul 18 2007, 08:04 PM) Ignore King83, he's a regular troll on the forums. You look way better than him considering you started just since April 2007. Keep up the good work. Darklight79,Reading such words from a reputable bb in H&F means a lot to me. Please do not hesitate to shower me with advice/criticism. I gonna need it to further improve my knowledge in BB. Looking forward in meeting/working out with you all one day. QUOTE(Canopies @ Jul 18 2007, 08:15 PM) Canopies,Do hope my rate of progress will not decrease. I know there r still many rooms for improvement within my workout/diet routines. There are a few members using the same avatar as I'm. Downloaded it from a gif site |

QUOTE(Joey-kun @ Jul 19 2007, 12:00 AM) w00t gotta admit thats pretty nice...somewhere around my own goal (although 85kg--->59kg is not logical) but hey, you're fit! keep up the good work joey-kunThank you for the encouraging words. Im impressed by your weight lost progress. The confidence gain is priceless ya? QUOTE(jones007 @ Jul 19 2007, 12:22 AM) wow N0eL u r damn light man. i'm around your height at 77kgs. good job mate. time to put on some muscle mass eh after cutting the fats lol jones007,Yeah, I;m currently bulking. Gonna finish my weight gainer pretty soon. Need look for a new tub. Any recommendation? QUOTE(egoeagle @ Jul 19 2007, 01:56 AM) egoeagle,I will certainly do.

Thanks in advance QUOTE(ky_khor @ Jul 19 2007, 03:44 AM) Ky_khor,I'm currently at 59 kgs (height = 167cm), kinda thin at the moment. My goal for now is to add on another 5kgs of muscle mass. Ain't easy gaining it. Stuck at 59kgs for a week now. Need do something about it QUOTE(darklight79 @ Jul 19 2007, 04:19 AM) Thank you N0eL. It is an honor to hear such words from aspiring trainees like yourself as it gives me inspiration to push my body to the limit and beyond. I'll help out whenever i can. And yes, I've met up and trained members before. Do not hesitate to ask if you require assistance. Will do sir. I'm eating as much and often as I could. Ain't easy to locate healthy food around the office. I'm currently consuming nutralife Maximum weight gainer. Doesn't means like it's doing its job.Right now don't worry about width or thickness, etc. Focus on gaining overall body mass and milk those newbie gains to the limit. Peace. |

QUOTE(jones007 @ Jul 19 2007, 09:58 AM) @N0eL Start with Whey so soon? I still aint satisfied with my current size.enough for weight gainers. time to put one serious muscle mass man. get a tub of whey isolate protein. do compound exercises. check out the pinned exercise routine thread. u'll find useful stuff in it I read that whey will only encourage muscle growth,but I wont gain much mass out of it.Moreover my metabolism will increase due to the extra muscle and I might start loosing weight if I keep up with my current diet. Kindly advice. QUOTE(Joey-kun @ Jul 19 2007, 12:25 PM) Joey-kun,read it somewhere that u were previously 100+ kgs before u start working out. U must have a well shaped body by now. QUOTE(tongyam @ Jul 19 2007, 12:38 PM) @neol, we got same height, but i just only 55 kgs .b4 that was 50kg, 1-2 years ago i think. tongyam,work more for ur cheast, i notise man boobs there, it is muscle or fats? hard clarify by only pict. no abs nvm, aslong no tummy gambateh We need to gain more weight buddy. Else we will look like walking bamboo standing next to other members guys over here. I work on my chest everytime. I dont think it's fat. Mostly muscle. Aiming for a more developed chest. |

QUOTE(Joey-kun @ Jul 19 2007, 01:01 PM) you should start on whey as soon as you start to lift. else, drink HL milk after workouts. no, I was 70+kg before I start lah....100+ is someone else QUOTE(jones007 @ Jul 19 2007, 01:01 PM) just be on a caloric excess diet and you'll grow, dont worry. take whey and grow more musles. u can still take mass gainer if your daily diet is very low on carbs. Currently HL milk is part of my diet. But i guess need to start with whey to increase the progress. I can't really eat much at the moment coz got used to the weight lost diet I've been on since past months. I guess consuming both weight gainer and whey seems feasible, but can I do so?w00t the lats war again? lol |

QUOTE(T+1 @ Aug 26 2007, 02:15 PM) ur gym instructor injured his back from what exercise? it seems very serious T+1,Added on August 26, 2007, 2:27 pm wow, u have baby-smooth skin... jk nice chest dunno why, it seems lightweight guys tend to have nice chest faster. i saw quite many average guys have well developed chest compared their other body parts. sigh... i have jealousy problem Most probably was the lighting that displayed my skin that way. I bench press everytime I'm at the gym.Most of the time using dumbbells rather than barbells. Bigger chest gives the illusion that a person is actually bigger than one really is QUOTE(pizzaboy @ Aug 26 2007, 04:34 PM) Simple U r right pizzaboy. I do concentrate on my chest a lot. But not biceps. Only realized that I've gotta work harder on that department when I looked at the mirror recently. But I'm aiming for overall balance. Except legs, hahahaha. I dont train them at all.. many average guys focus on their chests, and biceps i'm not saying noel, he looks like he has developed some good size too. |

Last month
![]() This Month ![]() I'm in a process of building a belly at the moment. Can hardly fit into my pants now. I guess all my increased weight(current 63.5,gained 2 kgs this month) went to the mid section. Most probably coz I eat dinner late at night(usual time 9pm). I'm thinking of adding a 30 mins run into my routines from next month onwards. Diet will be as usual. I'm quite satisfied with my current outlook, just want to get rid of the belly and make those 6 packs visible. Hopefully I wont loose much muscle mass with the 30 mins cardio. Lipo 6? Mind sharing your cutting workout routines? (high rep low-mid intensity?) Diet? ( 1g protein per pound body weight + calorie deficit?) Thanks in advance ~! |

Hey King,
Thanks a lot. Will work even harder when I start bulking. As jones said, I might not have consumed enough protein previously. I Aint loosing any weight at all even when i'm cutting now. I've kinda doubled my intake of protein at the moment. |

![]() 05/12/07 ![]() I was heavier in the Oct picture by 2-3 kgs. Currently culking, it's either an illusion that i look bigger or i'm burning fat and gaining Muscles. Still need to cut more. Been doing it for 2 months, progress seems slow. It's ok as long as i aint loosing much muscles from it |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Gained 2 inches on chest area, 0.5 inch on arms and 2 inches on the waist. Still Sticking to the same routines doing 3x8 for hypertrophy right now. More visible muscle definitions and burning more fats. I highly recommend consuming BCAA for during and post workout meal. I only take whey in the morning and before going to bed right now. Started with VasoCharge this week and seems very good as a pre workout meal. Am able to lift 10lbs heavier than before with ease. Should be able to go heavier but i'm still on trial and error experiments right now. Go for AB rollers for 6 packs. It's fairly an advance routine but it works wonder. Give it a try. Dare to indicate that i'm at the right path as progress seems reasonable. Will try to further tweak diet as I think it still ain't good enough at the moment. Hoping for bigger chests and better visibility 6 packs at the moment. |
