    imho, effective creatine for me, i gain strength, pero hindi yun instant strength ha, just done benchpress, from 120lbs max last week, now up to 140lbs max, wala spot, wala marunong e, kaya half ko lng binaba.

    Half reps= .5

    If you'll ask me there's no such thing. You either can lift it or not.

    first off, what are your stats? how many years have you been lifting?

    my take on half reps specially with chest- if youre doing half reps for chest, make sure youre doing it at the lower half of the lift to stimulate chest muscle. if youre doing it at the upper half then youre training with your tricep muscles.

    Re: Deadlift

    First time kong may nakita bukod sakin na nag dDLs sa kalawang gym dito. Kaso yung back niya eh round tapos ang taas ng hips niya sa starting position niya, tapos sobrang ang lean back niya sa paglolock. Gusto ko sanang lapitan kaso ayaw kong magmagaling haha.


    minsan may mga plifters talaga na rounded ang back pag nag pull, mas bigger poundage nalilift nila sa ganto, prone sa injury ang gantong technique pag d ka talaga skilled.
    Mga boss! Gusto ko po sana bawasan yung leg muscle ko dahil hindi na po ito proportional sa aking height and upper body. Pwede po ba ito magawa? I am 5'4" 20% bfat with 24 inch thighs. Thanks in advance!

    para bawasan ( LEG MUSCLE), kung yun ang goal mo, wag mong i train para mag atrophy or pag maintain ng size mag stick ka lang sa poundage na bubuhatin mo,minimal volume...

    friendly comment lang sir, wala ako magawa today eh..doing partial reps on bench press to target ur chest is not really effective, HOWEVER,I agree that partial reps can be done on some occasions not to stretch the muscles but more on neural training(STRENGTH EMPHASIS rather than hypertrophy..(board presses, pin press..etc.) you can do partial reps to break plateus.(but very draining on CNS). halimbawa sa pin press, gamit ang power rack, kung 1RM mo is 100lbs. you can train partial reps using 120lbs, just position the safety bar (tha bar that will save ur freaking ass pag di mo na angat) just below the pins, un rack the bar, ibaba hanggang sa safety bar at i press.next workout, ibaba pa ang pins, and so on and so forth until such time that ur actually doing full reps using new RM. hope that helps..

    Meron din, kaya extra effort din kung sakali. Pero as insan DS said check your routines/nutrition din
  • DSmallDivideDSmallDivide Posts: 4,565
    ^^

    Meron talaga it has something to do w/ genes but it doesn't mean kasi that it will not grow, so it may be has something to do w/ execution/form/progression of the workouts, nutrition also is a factor. I had this problem before and na realize ko nde pala masyado nasestretch yung fascia ko sa chest kaya mabagal sya lumaki kahit tama nutrition ko and rest.

    by focusing more dun sa lower part ng movement pag sa bench press, nowadays i dont push all the way up (though sometimes i still do old habit kasi hehehe) when doing bench presses para andun ang tension mismo sa dodo naka focus hehehe at wala sa triceps hehehe. Gaya ng sabi sakin ni sir milk "ibaba mo pa!!!" LOL!
