Might want to rephrase that, makes no sense.

what i mean is pretty simple... no weight training... nothing intense like sprinting tht could lead to muscle loss!!! anything involving muscle meaning you're solely working your muscle instead of pumping your heart!!!


anyway here's my fat loss progress and increase of lean muscle mass throughout my 2 weeks... im keeping my night meal small so tht i can really start my day totally fresh with light cardio but at times craving comes in... i do follow my weight workout routine as what registryeditor says... keep your workout intense... i keep my rest 30 seconds for the regular exercise and 40 seconds if im doing supersets... the only downside to this kinda regime is tht you can't lift as heavy as you can actually push cause short rest pumps your heart pretty fast and not easy to push heavy as your muscle fatigues fast... but you can definitely feel the pump and hardness due to the constant blood flow...



here's my pic after a a week plus of morning cardio... not bad... could see obvious difference and i only skip.. really wanna do jogging in the morning but due to certain circumstances...

Last set la bang..from 150-160-165KG, each doubles tau. Then 4 sets lagi.....mana kaki aku tak senget. tongue.gif


Added on November 27, 2008, 8:03 amHere's something for discussion hopefully;

I noticed most people that don't squat deep, have a tendency of being able to rise up faster. However, those that squat deep, with near maximal weights+fatigue kicking in, always have a tendency at being stuck where the legs are parallel to the ground or JUST slightly higher.

MY theory is that, as we descend, the tightness and stretch reflex in our muscles move from the quads to the hamstrings. As we bounce out of the hole, the quads need to take over at the position where the hamstrings recruitment is at it's minimal level. At this point, the quads aren't flexed. As of this, the sticking point happens and we have to grind out from that position.

I've always noticed this happening and did an experiment. I took 150KG'S but only stopped at parallel and immediately got back up. There was NO sticking point, but with a heavier weight. If I stopped at that position and exploded back upwards, there was STILL no sticking point, and I'd gather this is because the quads are still in an isometric flexed position.

I'm going to try to descend next time I squat, while keeping my quads constantly flexed and see if there's a difference in the rising speed. Or if anybody else's squatting today, do tell me. I'm goin to squat only tomorrow.

weight and height? proper lighting also, coz the shady lighting can make your body look defined as to where the light falls. not that i am telling you that you are not ripped or whatsoever. no offence btw.

erm, i would suggest you not to do HIIT first without proper supplementation of sufficient fats and protein or it could lead to greater muscle loss rather than fat loss. jog for at least 15 mins about 60-70% of your MHR.

as for weights training, you can try supersetting opposite muscle or circuit style or even giant sets but always remember to keep the intensity high by reducing the rest between sets as much as possible. just my 2 cents that worked for me.

I thought some people might get a kick out of this.

While cleaning out my hard drive, I came across some old photos...including the one on the left (the other is from a few days ago):

From what I can remember, I weighed about 150 lbs back then--right now I weigh about 230 lbs.

Maybe I should rethink my 'bucket of KFC a day' diet sad.gif
