May question ako, mahina pa lang kasi ako so magagaan pa lang mga binubuhat ko pero para sakin mabigat na yun. Ano ba mas okay, yun kaya lang na weight para ma complete yun set o mabigat then magpa spot?
Thanks prolevelz. Satisfied naman ako sa progress ko, nakaka inggit lang kung minsan kasi ang lalakas na ng mga nakaka sabay ko. Hehe. Tuloy-tuloy lang, makakarating din ako dun. :-D

ok lang mag pa spot, pero ang spot na to is just simply helping you unrack and rack the bar when your reaching failure, but help w/ the entire lift? nah! thats not proper spotting, also about the poundage it should be heavy enough depending on the reps per set you are targeting w/ your program. like if your target it 5-7 reps per set, load a weight that you can make at least 5 reps out of it.
I'm doing 3sets of 8 reps. Usually I'm struggling to complete the 3rd set. This happens when I'm doing flat and inclined bench press. Dito ako mahina, any advice?
Thanks mighty_oak, mukhang maganda nga yun 5x5, just read it sa archieve. Parang more of isolation exercises yun program ko. Okay lang ba yun pa din gawin ko then instead of 3-4 sets of 8, 5x5 ang gagawin ko?
Back day yesterday. I did the following:
Barbell bent-over row
Close grip pulldown
Bumbbell bent-over row
Lateral pulldown
Cable straight arm pulldown
I also duscussed sa gym instructor na naggu-guide sakin yun suggestion ni mighty_oak na 5x5. Pero sabi nya wag muna. Stick daw muna ko sa ginawa nyang program until may pondo na (strength).
Ang naintindihan ko kasi sa 5x5 you'll increase yung weight na kaya mo by 5-10%. Then pag nakakaya mo na ulit gawin yun 5sets of 5reps add ka ulit. Tama ba? Currently may program ako na mostly isolation exercises, pwede ko ba i-continue yun at instead of 3-4sets of 8reps, gagawin kong 5x5.
I tried it yesterday para sa shoulder day ko. I did the following
stick w/ the program of 5x5 muna if your going to use its protocol, there is a reason why ganun ang structure nung program nya. it's kinda too early to be tweaking your programs at this stage since nasa process pa ng adaptation ang katawan mo pag dating sa tension sa weights. just saying.
Front Squat
Ski Squat
Machine Leg Press
Machine Leg Curl
Calf Raise
nag-add ako ng 10lbs sa squat ko kaya di ako makalakad ng maayos ngayon, sakit ng legs ko.
Naghahanap ako ngayon ng Personal Journals na naka 5x5 program. Planning to shift to 5x5, sana supportahan ako nung gym trainor na nagtuturo sakin (hindi ko naman sya personal trainor pero sinu-suportahan nya ko, he's making my programs)

ganyan din ako dati.... magaan lang muna hanggat kaya ko na - aiming for more na ako,.. lift more and dont forget to rest... rest... rest...
Tuloy tuloy mo lang bro.

apir
Yung weight na ginagamit mo sa program mo ganun pa din tapos papalitan mo lang yung sets at reps to 5x5?
I tried it yesterday para sa shoulder day ko. I did the following
Machine shoulder press
Dumbbell lateral raise
Bar upright row
Rear lateral raise
Shrug
Surprisingly naincrease ko yun weight na binubuhat ko ng around 20lbs pag 5reps instead of 8reps ang gagawin ko.
exactly....
