My weight now is same as yours when you started working out. What do you think helped most in your weight gain/bulking ? If i can gain 2kg+ every month, i would be very happy indeed.
Must be a man like u & rev up my leg work

Welcome back !
No need worry. Ur a true blue 100% certified loyal to the core bodybuilder, so u'll b back to peak form real soon I think ur diet not supplemented with ur usual protein etc, dats y weight gone down, n due to depleted energy store not enough nutrition for the workouts. When i went for my 1wk vacation in thai, my weight gone 0.5kg though i ate non-stop at the roadside stalls. |

Wow.. you are very detailed indeed mr accountant !
Jus sth i noticed, your 133g of protein is exactly same as mine ! I'm taking 2.3g/kg bodyweight. A bit worried too hi las time but now i've added a bit, i think the ratio gone down. Since u like tables mayb can do a breakdown for calories contributed by protein, carb & fat in each meal. Then can adjust the meals to calilbrate which one to increase/decrease. With my ltd knowledge i understand that HVT is hi volume exercising. So burning a lot of energy. But if u stil manage to get more fat from this furious exercise, mayb your carb is real high. Or izzit the volume is too taxing ? I read that a good rest is important for muscles to grow. If a workout is enough to work thoroughly all muscles and yet not too exhausted for the next day workout, then they have chance to recover & grow. Anyhow the physique is the end result of all the preparations/calculations. And since ur appearance has improved, i guess jus only need some tweaking here & there. Oh ya, happy new year to you. May this year be a productive one ! |

Oh no..
Mayb u will need to switch to porridge with fish. Its easier on the digestion. The protein shakes shld keep your stomach nourished throughout the day. Have a good rest & hope u recover soon. p.s If u looking for nice porridge, theres a stall (with several types of fish meat) at the cnr coffeeshop. The seller jus beside the bak ku teh. Its the same row as those small food stalls fronting the road. |

QUOTE(wallpaper89 @ Jan 9 2009, 11:15 AM) LOL today my lecturer fell sick so college cancelled. Thanks for the well wishes, I'm feeling slightly better this morning Haha.. so u must b celebrating d day off. I dunno d name of coffeeshop but its side road is the entrance to the psr malam. Jus fin my claypot rice. Yum. Have a good exercise day tomolo !Porridge a... Are you talking about the hawker stall in Lucky restaurant? That one if I'm not wrong was advertised and published in the newspaper before. But I have never tried it in all my 12 years of life in Sri Petaling lol... Tomorrow will be Chest Day, I am not expecting myself to perform extraordinarily after a short rest period, especially with me falling sick so often. I will most probably be going for very light weights x high reps. I think my muscle works better with rep ranges of 13-15. I was thinking of doing smith decline bench press, but flat dumbbell BPs sounds enticing as well |

Too self-conscious to go gym leh.. *got pretty chicks there not?*
Wow, 4 workouts for the chest ! Thats hardcore ! No wonder the dumbells wont cooperate ahha.. And lucky u can't afford kfc everyday. Someone posted his progress fotos - b4 & after kfc. I think a kampung chicken looks tougher than him. Sigh.. Oh yah, myvi gave me a tip to have sth during workouts. Yr chest exer must consume lots energy, some energy drink in between could come in useful. This post has been edited by mrPOTATO: Jan 11 2009, 12:37 PM |

That was 3 weeks ago. I just had my weight measured again today after the workout and ta-daaa! I now weigh a much healthier 68.6kg and body fat is at 11.3%! Waa.. someone got his tone back + a suntan too. |

QUOTE(wallpaper89 @ Jan 20 2009, 12:21 AM) Btw just now I just defecated. Was wondering, maybe the feces that I store for the last 40 hours before hopping on the scale gave me an additional boost in weight. Hahha.. i have same thoughts for myself too.QUOTE(wallpaper89 @ Jan 21 2009, 10:52 AM) Odd, how come my workout time took so long. I didn't even rest in between sets. Maybe its cuz I do one arm at a time, hmm... Hah. You are approaching superman speeds already at 45mins Total Workout Time: 45 minutes Happy holidays to you ! |

QUOTE(wallpaper89 @ Feb 9 2009, 10:19 PM) My test is on Wednesday to Friday... thought of doing last minute study tomoro, but when I checked my timetable, I was like DAMN! Turns out I got class from 8am to 6pm tomorrow LOL!! Better start now la... Thanks for your invitation.. I kind of like exercising in the confines of my home cos can start immediately & do whatever after that. But yes, i think the gym might be a better place to focus. But the thought of travelling to / fro the gym also puts me off. Oso the thought of paying monthly fees, i'm the stingy type hahaa. C how la.. mayb in future i might change my mind when i'm bored of home.Thanks for the encouragement btw. If you wanna join the gym let me know so I can get free 1 month lol. And one of the consultants told me they will waive joining and processing fees if you are intro-ed by another member. Sometimes I tak sengaja stare at others when they doing their workout... Cos I'm impressed by their body/form/etc lol. Too bad seldom got chicks in free weight area... Whers ur gym manager chick ? |
