Wassup Peepz. Any gym goers here? I started gym about 2+ months back and thus far, it's showing results. But I'm looking for more techniques, tips, etc. from long time gym-ers who have successfully toned their bodies. It could be workout tips or diet tips. If you won't mind sharing it, then perhaps you could share it here. :)

Some questions that I have which I couldn't really find answers to on the net (thus far, that is) are...

1- Which muscle groups are different? I ask this because if I work my triceps, I may not have enough energy to work my back. Because I think I read somewhere, it says that triceps and back are the same muscle group. So if I work one out, I'll be left with no energy to work the other one.

2- Is it better to workout weights first, and then do cardio? A few fitness trainers told me that working weights will break down the fats, and cardio will 'wash away' the fats.

There r 2 types of exercises available.

Compound - incorporate more and 1 joints and muscle parts
Isolation - 1 joint movement and 1 muscle part

Also sometime, when you are doing certain exercises, other muscles will come in play as a stabilizer in order for you to perform. For instance, When u Bench press, you will need ur tricep/forearm to stabilize the bar/dumbbell.

As a beginner, I would recommend you to go for compound exercises and a full body workout each time u go gym. U need to strengthen all of ur muscles before u could split ur routine doing 1/2 parts a day.


Go for weight training first before doing Cardio. U need all the strength available to lift those pounds and kgs. If you are planning to gain weight and bulk, there is no need for u to do cardio. It will just hinder ur progress.

as to doing ur back with triceps is not an ideal program on the same day try doing back with biceps as it involves pulling movements (biceps as support/stabilizers)..workout your triceps suggest bench press flat incline decline on the same day...

high intensity weight training burns fat faster than cardio but u gotta be fit to take the training and the load must be high hence u might need ur amino acids creatine and most importantly protein power for recovery...if ur into fitness not really necessary...

ur training program accommodates to ur lifestyle so dont overtrain if u sleep late and such

happy training

I was so shocked to see tis thread started by Satria95,and i tot ther is smtg wrong wit my eyes. Hahahaa,hello bro!!:wavey:

Plan to lightweight urself so tat ur car lighter then can save fuel?

FIRST,u need to CUT DOWN on oily food like Nasi Kandar,Kari Kepala Ikan,Ayam Goreng & thos oily foods. Cut down on cigarettes if can. Buy protein for supplement i.e. Muscletech, Horleys,bla bla. Drink more water everyday. Consume vitamins like B-Complex, Vitamin C or multivitamins. All the above is just a basic START ok. If u manage to follow all tat,then v proceed to the next step. And DON'T ever check out the girls in the gym ok. Hahahaa

Noel,
Hey, thanks for the reply, dude. Will definitely see how I can work my programs. I've done some reading up during these 2+ months and thus far, I think I'm going to need to loose some flabs first, especially my abs. haha So I'm doing weights, and then going for cardio. I'm not going on any form of protein yet. Usually, I'll take 4 omega hard boiled eggs a day, with 3 yolks removed. So it's 4 eggs with only 1 yolk. The rest of the yoke is thrown away. haha

TitanRev,
I don't wanna become hulk man. Just wanna feel healthy hehehe

Wah.....Satria into Gym oh.... Wanna become the next HULK and crash MR? Hehehe...

driftkingii,
Dude, mind me asking which gym you're going to? I'm currently going to fitness first. hehe If you're going to fitness first, probably we can workout together. hehe

I've already made myself a diet plan which is working and showing very good results. Thus far, I've lost about 7-8kg in 2.5 months. hehe I don't smoke :)

Well bro, where i stay has a gym with threadmild, some cycling machine n some heart walking machine and i dont go to this fitnest first n stuff .. need $$$$

btw, the yolks u keep la to make cookies for the kids or give to ur gf or mom if they want to make dishes that uses the egg yolk :P

p/s: cannot waste la, damn G !!

 

[satria_95]

driftkingii,
The thing with yolks are... it's usually best to use it when it's cracked out of the eggs. And when that happens, nobody I know needs those yolk. haha Unless I give it to my dog. haha

jinkl,
nizer? Faster get him in here. hahaha

I'm actually looking at protein shakes now. Basically, if I could find protein shakes that could also burn fat, it'll be cool but I doubt there's a multitasking protein that does that. Any recommendations for beginners?

satria bro,

If u do not have any cholesterol problem, just take the yolk la.. wont kill u if i workout constantly. More than half of the protein in an egg is from it's yolk..

 

[satria_95]

Noel,
Thing is... I'm not sure if I've got cholesterol problem or not. I've just done a medical check up and will get the results soon. So that should tell me if I've got a cholesterol problem. hehe But I'm considering protein shakes because it's more specific to it's purpose which is good for me to tone and build a bit of muscles. hehe
