    PHAT TRAINING - DAY 1

    inspired by one of the journals here, I'm going to try out PHAT training for a couple of months, maybe three, just to see if I get stronger from the increase in frequency. Kapa-kapa muna sa weights ngayon, not sure pa ko sa mga 1 rep max, etc. ko.

    Day 1 - UPPER BODY POWER DAY

    Bent-over barbell row - 3x5 at 110,110,120lbs
    Pull-up - 2x7,6 at bodyweight+15lb plate
    Rack chin - 2x10
    Flat DB press - 3x6,5,5 at 65lbs per DB
    Weighted chest dip - 2x10 at bodyweight + 15lb plate
    Seated DB shoulder press - 3x6 at 45lbs per DB
    EZ bar curl - 3x8,8,6 at 40,45lbs
    Skull crusher - 3x10,10,8 at 45lbs


    For lunch at work (baon ng ilang araw). Paired with brown rice and veggies or served on wholewheat pita with cheese and veggies:
    Seared beef sirloin (1 kilo)
    Baked skinless chicken breast (1.5 kilos)

    @GrandeCapo oo bro stick muna sa current. Tingnan ko lang mga exercises kasama sa phat para ma-youtube narin.

    Ayos no excuses nga kahit nasa travel workout parin! Daming tao dyan? Musta weather?
  • Dagat yung tao! Pero enjoy sobra walang katulad :)) maliligo ka sa alak, pawis at pintura. Mainit nung hapon nasunog nga ako eh pero malamig na rin nung gabi. Will definitely go back.

  • Haha punta ka na lang next year para maranasan mo ;) photos don't do it justice.

    Ang weird, mas mahirap mag neutral-grip seated rows sa lat pulldown/row machine ko kaysa sa lower pulley ng crossover machine ko. Hmm. Nabawasan ang weight from 190lbs to 140lbs nung sa kabilang machine ako nag rows.

    ..."

    Check the cable system, i.e. the number of pulleys and length of the cable itself. More pulleys equate to less effort required to pull an object from a surface.
  • That makes sense. Though both machines have 3 pulleys each, the lat machine looks like it has more distance between the individual pulleys. This is why I hate physics hahaha

    Took a day off from working out yesterday; got home too late. Oh well

    @ GrandeCapo

    Ano current lifting stats mo ngayon sa:

    Conventional Deadlift
    Romanian Deadlift


    Thanks
  • Last time I did conventional DLs, 2 reps of 265 lbs so using the 1RM calculator, mga 273lbs max ako I guess. Romanian, still working my way up, buy my guess is mga 220lbs for 1 rep (I'll update you on this soon)
