Sweet, gonna check these places out.

Thanks guys! Would love to be training with you jamis but that place is too expensive for my short term stay!

Cheers.

I have no problem with my grip for normal deadlift. It happens when i perform the wide grip version. Couldn't complete 5 reps without pausing.


Jamis,

Plenty of video instructions on youtube ~! I looked at those ~!

Yep, its in Section 13. Getting there is pretty straightforeward, its actually inside one of UTAR's campus blocks (the one directly opposite the Bosch factory, Block C) so if you know how to get to UTAR then there won't be a problem finding the place.

REYZAI also mentioned the place here.

Address:
Heritage Sports Centre
2nd Floor,
No. 3, Jalan 13/6,
Petaling Jaya, Selangor 46200


Google Map directions from Federal Highway.

That's closer to Jaya One than I thought. Just needed an address! Thanks Lynx.

@mofo, i think those ghetto gym is best option for you, pay per entry.

there is quite alot in klang valley, i always go Iron gym at wangsa maju, RM4 per entry and with quite alot of equipment, just that sometime it is too crowned

We have it but we're all the way down south. However, if you go to 1U the climbing place there or to Pushmore, you can ask them where they get their supplies. Pushmore's one is slightly more ....how should I say, it doesn't crumble that much.

Good luck. Don't hurt anything. Nowadays my coach does tissue massage and cracking my joints. It's giving my back and thighs a much better time.

@yeah_guyz : Wangsa Maju is so far away from my house.

btw, near Hartamas area is a sports massage centre @ RM 150. Not bad. I haven't been but I was told about this

muahaha... joints cracking syok rite? =.=
never done it but by the sound of it, its fun...
tissue massage? hmm... dont know how its done... muahahah

foam roller? it have a very good review

Talk about strength.

It works but it always misses a few spots that are really deep. Then people suggest tennis ball. However, the best is still a human leg, elbow, knees and hands.

The thumb of a professional is always better mah.

Perhaps I should try some Chinese massage here.
Pizzaboy, remember what your coach said about the hair saloon parlours in Wenzhou?

Oldie, but a regular guy would pop their shoulders out.

injuries are part n parcel of any training, sticky on this anyone?

injury- lower back injury (oh nooo my squat.... just when im progressing.. sigh)
what can you do while one wait for it to recover?

-any lower body movement is a pain to to the lower back
-no bending, standing up to walk can be a pain
- seated calf raise is a maybe

im thinking arm training, but nothing heavy that involves stabilizing the DB
certain shoulders, bi, tri, traps, forearms routine

Partial isometrics sounds like an idea.

I'm goin for a talk by Dr. Yang Jingzhen from Uni of Iowa about sports injury prevention. Then we've got a Malaysian, Dato. Dr Ramlan about sports injuries and management of the injuries. Maybe then I'll know better

Try front squats. (But it's even more technical than the back squat, and you risk killing yourself if you do it wrong.)

Was doing squat just now and after i pushed the last rep i feel real sharp pain on my head. somewhere at the temples on both side. Somehow i just walked quickly to the water cooler and felt better after a drink

What gives? Not enough water for the day?

never exp this kind of pain before

what make your 1st thought is no enough water intake? obviously you not taking enough water, that's why that is the 1st came to your mind.

do consume at least 1 gallon of water per day for bber!

No problem man, let me know if you're gonna check it out.

Sudden increase in blood pressure due to exertion.

Drink more water all the time, and go do a medical check ASAP.

You don't want to get a stroke halfway through squatting.
