To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

so my coach worked me and the other guy in my class until i thought i was going to vomit after only 30min. there is nothing like an intense practice to make you feel out of shape.

Originally posted by Orbax the last time i did 6.5 kg I was 5'11 and weighed 62kg and was 16 years old. you gotta be doing something wrong

So, i went to the gym today and figured i was indeed doing something wrong with the bicep curls.. on the upwards movement i wasn't rotating the arm, but instead already having it facing up at the start of the movement. Still, i can't get past 6.5kg on my left arm, it's fucking weak, it's already hard to do it right on that weight. With my right arm i can do 8.5kg correctly. I seem to have my left side under-developed or something, my left shoulder is lower than my right too.

A question for you guys: is focusing on doing lots of cardio instead of machines and lifting weights, the best way to lose weight? That's the claim of a guy I know, but I'm not sure if I should trust him since he's been on the gym for years, and still has the same weight as me, lol.

I seem to be seeing results already from 2 weeks of gym, lost 1.5kg and generally feel better.. at this rate I should be where I want to in just 2 or 3 months.. then i'll start focusing on maintaining my weight while building some muscular mass.

What the baby arm !?!


Your posts always make me LOL so hard!

But seriously you might want to start lifting on machines so that you get the proper motion and technique. You dont wanna be doing something the wrong way you may end up doing more harm then good. As for losing weight go light with plenty of reps something like 4-5x10-12, cardio is a must for losing fat you might want to look into HIIT cardio as it expends the most fat loss. If you want I can give you a little mini workout program that would be good to start.

Well, I don't really need a program, since I'm going with some mates and pretty much following what they're doing, but you can post it anyway if you want. Although I don't know the name of any exercise, not even in portuguese, so the comprehension of what is going on in this thread is a little hard.

I'll try looking into that HIIT thing, thanks for the tip.

There is no 'correct' way to begin or end a curling movement as far as when and where you twist your wrist along the way, if that's what you're talking about. You don't have to rotate anything when you do dumbbell curls.

Yeah, because you'll be losing fat. If you put on muscle with weights you'll see less of a weight loss because muscle weigs more than fat and you'll lose fat, but the muscle you gain will offset that and you will not lose as much weight overall.




I don't see what the big deal is about doing DB side laterals with 60 lbs man. I'm starting to think this 'super strict form' bs with laterals is a load of crap. Like on every other muscle I do i'm sore the next day at least, but doing strict side laterals with like up to 40-45's wasn't seeming to blast my side delts at all. I started doing heavy ass 55-60 lb sets of 4-6 reps with a slight cheating movement at the start of my reps (but not letting the weight hit my thigh at the end of the movement). It seems to blast the hell out of my side delts and this could be exactly what I need to make those ******s grow.

hey moobs any suggestions for my workout or anything you see that is wrong?

I worked out today.
