good inspiration to everyone.
i respect him for being passionate and determined.
damn... i wish we could just have passion like him...

I wonder how he does his leg exercises...

I would actually prefer chicken legs compared to huge legs.

But of course, working the legs is a must to maximize growth and to create a more balanced-looking body. But hey, 99% of the time, nobody notices small legs. They notice a big upper body. To bodybuilders, every aspect is looked at, not only the upper body. But, the ordinary person on the street does not see things the way bodybuilders do. A decent upper body is adequate in their perspective. That's what I think, at least.

i want look good when wearing short or naked

if u got huge arm, not too wide upper body and chicken leg..
proportion is yes..
unless its limited by genetic factor.

come on guys.. dont you ever want to wear short, lepak-lepak at beach, swimming pools... kolam air panas at selayang

have you guys tried scuba/diving suit? if you got big upper body and small leg.. you will see how funny it is.

unless it is your intention by using optical illusion to make people see u have big d-ck...
by having huge quad.. its look small..

Actually even a normal person can notice small legs. especially when the upper body is so significantly much bigger than the legs. i can easliy notice it too even way before i started weight lifting.
but mebbe thats just me

You think he can still do leg exercises

What?

I mean he can't walk right... How does he do the leg presses and hack squats like his journal says?

some ppl just workout the upper body more than the leg...they do it intentionally bcoz they just want lean ripped but not so huge...like uhuk-uhuk mentioned, they just target to get a decent upper body...

but then of course if some serious bbers working their upper body parts like hell but not the legs, that's just wasted...

p/s : for a fat ass like me, no problem if want to lepak² at the beach wearing shorts as i'm fat and i dont have chicken legs...

Got a silly question. Does workout at young age will sustain height growing?

Only if you do things with incorrect or potentially dangerous technique or form.

My friend said that dumbell exercise will result in shorter height due to the force acting downwards? Help needed.

Ask your friend to explain Arnold Schwarzeneggar, who started bodybuilding in his teens.

Problem solved. Thx. Nice answers~

No worries, mate. I actually let my friends make me doubtful and a bit worried about it, up until I did my own research.

Seriously, how heavy is a dumbbell?
You carry your school bag daily pun dah 5-6kg on your back. Did that stunt your growth? No, right?!

Anyway, if you do resistance exercises (e.g. dumbbell work, push ups, pull ups, sprinting, weight lifting, swimming etc), your body releases growth hormones to increase strength and body mass. Growth hormones make you grow, IF you eat right and sleep early.

How can growth hormones make you short?!
Illogical, right?

Unless, you gatal. Lift super heavy weights with no supervision and injure yourself. <--This will cause stunted growth.

This really doen't make sense~ Btw, overweighted means? Im lifitng 12kg dumbell with 7-8 reps. Consider over?

12kg is peanuts. Don't sweat it.

For you, not for me =.=

How old are you? How tall and how much do you weigh? If its too much then adjust the weights. Go heavy, but not too heavy.
