You're joking right? To skip chin-ups?
Don't be so sarcastic laaaa....

I'm sure yeahs4.1 doesn't mean what he said, you should keep pulling at chins. Chin ups, are peculiar movements, it's quite a bit of CNS to pull yourself not just arm strength, so if you don't keep doing at it, you'll never develop the kinestesis ability to execute the movement.
On t-nation.com, there's a very good article about pull-ups and how to develop the ability to do them. It's quite comprehensive and detailed.
Do read it.

Ah, well I know how that feels. Felt dumb every time my coach said "Snatch classic, 8x" but I could only do "Power Snatch"

Anyway, here's an excellent guide to pull-ups from t-nation. One of the few T-nation articles that actually contains good information written with modesty and not the "hardcore" mentality and "marketing" idea.

I say just train the muscles hard, heavy and fast. Just do the squats, deadlifts, benchpress, pull-ups (learn to do it) and overhead presses and rows la....Just stick to this for the moment. By the time you stagnant (3 month of consistent training), you'd have learned enough of your body to modify.

That's why, keep training journals. Or you could talk to us about what you'd like to modify.

Try channeling that sort of focus to your workouts. Then tell me you don't feel hungry.

Can you please cook it. It's not good for you, there's a risk of salmonella. And it doesn't absorb fully.

Food poisoning x 10=Salmonella.

Don't risk it.

He was in a hurry
Lay off already, let the boy be.
Now at least he knows, he'll cook it the next time. I hope.

Hey, truth be told, if already two people said it's wrong and I said "I get it" and then comes another 3 people pouring comments saying it's wrong some more, even I will get annoyed and just fcuk you guys up.

I don't blame the kid actually. Cheerios.

FOR YOU!!!!!

7PM meal was messed up

chicken chops are likely breaded already and you get carbs there. You probably didn't need the rice anyway. Ur cutting, don't forget.

I really don't know why you have such a hard time balancing school+training. Perhaps you need to throw those story books away for a bit, while you spend more time training.

My birthday is on the 24th of April and I'm far younger than I wrote on my profile. I used to be a bookworm like you, but one day, somehow, weightlifting and fitness just overtook my obsession for books. You can never ever tell. Like they say "Never say never"

Here's a dirty suggestion.

Chances are you're paying in excess of RM10 for the chicken chop with rice, or you're paying RM9 something. A better idea is a 3 piece chicken from KFC, remove the skin and just eat it. It's one of the cheaper ways to survive eating in KL.

WHy don't you say hi to him instead of waiting for him to say hi to you, cuz he has no clue who the heck you are anyway.

Mike Tyson has a saying, "Everyone has a plan, till they get hit"

We all PLAN, to help someone if we see them in trouble. But often, when the time comes, we'll just sit and stare in amazement/surprise/shock.

I'll be brutally honest here but still politically sweet, but your workouts are quite...a waste of time.

I'll show you why aight;


Workouts:

You've got a total of TWELVE exercises.

You do it like, legs, chest, back right?

Ya know, my morning workouts go like; power snatch, power clean and jerk, push press and front/back squats

Evening workouts; Squat snatch, clean and jerk, jerk from rack, snatch and clean pull and squats.

And yet, I take only 1 1/2 hours to complete. My main lifts, go to about 3x3. Then the accessory work go to about 5x5. This is all after my buildup sets. Don't get caught in the belief that more is better. There's a line between improvement and mere wasting time. At one point, your ATP declines and your muscles aren't recruited as you'd like them to be. At that point, you'd be better off resting, eating and training again later in the day if you want to.

Just a lil input. Hope it helps.

I didn't want you to get it the wrong way, but it seems you did.
I used to believe more was better.......but then as I researched more and read some thesis papers I borrowed, I realized, ENOUGH is better.

You should know this already, but as the period of training increases, the intensity decreases and your fast twitch muscles exhaust themselves. After that, you're only relying on your slow twitch muscles. These muscles aren't too significant to raising your BMR to burn more fats..well actually they are, but those little isolation movements aren't gonna do much for it. If anybody else disagrees, do a bench press for 1 month and do a squat for 1 month exclusively. And put them on the same diet.

If you lose more weight doing bench presses, I'll quit weightlifting.

What I'm suggesting is, a routine that involves more heavy lifting, and then an additional few sets and exercises for the minor bodyparts. Zatorski said that, accessories aren't bad, but never make your accessories your obsession. Don't make your bicep curls numbers be more important than your pull-up maxes.

Cheerios. I hope you get what I'm trying to say. And don't get so touched and emotional about me saying these extra movements are a waste of time. Not every compliment is an honest one, but every constructive comment is.

OF all the rows I've tested (Let's see.....db...bb....yates..hmm hmm, chest, t..hmm..about 8 different rowing variations) the best lat/upper and mid back killers IMHO goes to these;

1. Chest supported incline rows (Eliminates all lower back involvement. Deload each repetition)

2. Yates row (with a suppinated grip, soreness)

3. Dumbbell rows (With straps+heavy weights+HUGE oblique twisting movements)

For me, these movements work tremendously well. I've been able to pull 190KG's without my upper back failing and front squatting 140KG's after a session of snatch, cnj, pulls, and I'll attribute a huge amount of upper back strength to these row variations.

I believe for movements, where you cannot get other parts of your body to help, then use a light weight for high repetitions. If you can, then use a heavy weight, and go for even higher repetitions.

China weightlifting textbooks, FTW!
