    Pendlay Rows. Pero mas parallel pa dyan ang pendlay rows(strict form).

    This.
    BB Rows kasi tawag jan ni mehdi.
    Stole the 5x5 and called it as SL5X5. Renamed the pendlay rows to bb rows. lol


    Ito yung bent over barbell rows.
    Pwede ka din mag underhand grip.

    My knee has been acting up lately. During squats and leg extensions and other exercises, no pain. Paggising sa umaga meron to the point na hindi ko siya magalaw. More than 5 times na siya nangyari sakin and I usually extend my knee very slow to full extension and then flex my knee slowly to full flexion. Ayun, nawawala rin. Should I be worried?

    How about the other joints in your body?
  • JettieJettie Posts: 3,763
    Ako naman after deadlifts, parang ayaw gumalaw ng buong katawan ko pag kagising parang bigat ng gravity. Hehehe

    Sa knee naman before, yung bad technique laging may ganun na tulad sayo. Nung ginawa ko yung technique ni Candito ayun umayos.
  • XbrainXgainXbrainXgain Posts: 818
    No problem sa other joints sir. And it doesn't matter kung nagtrain ba ako ng legs o hindi.
  • Mighty_OakMighty_Oak Posts: 3,940
    Well I asked kasi baka onset na ng gout yan. If it's an injury it should be painful when you're doing a certain movement since it aggravates the injured part.
  • XbrainXgainXbrainXgain Posts: 818
    Whuuut?! Noooo! Hahaha. Sana naman hindi. I should go see a chiro pag may time and money na.
  • Mighty_OakMighty_Oak Posts: 3,940
    Chiro?

    Have your uric acid checked instead.
  • XbrainXgainXbrainXgain Posts: 818
    Sige sir. May nakita ako sa net na about sa misaligned pelvis causing knee pains. Nonetheless, I'll still kill my legs. I want bigger wheels. Grrr.

    Baka naman IBT pain?
  • XbrainXgainXbrainXgain Posts: 818
    Parang below the knee cap yung sakit sir. I'll see tomorrow pagkagising ko para maverify. Thanks for helping sir!
  • Mighty_OakMighty_Oak Posts: 3,940
    Hindi nga kung ganun. May ganyan din ako kaka b-ball ko noon pero may parang bukol na maliit or bone spur yun ang sumasakit.

    Hello mga masters:) Ask ko lang if what are your thoughts on reverse grip bench press? I've read a couple of articles saying that this exercise hits the upper pecs more than the traditional incline BB press. Any thoughts guys?

    TIA\m/

    after checking some articles and videos on this...i decided to give it a try last Sunday...followed the proper form & execution based on the given instructions & videos...
    so far eto findings ko:

    1. got DOMs on my delts instead of my upper chest
    2. i cant feel the effect on my upper chest compared to the traditional inclined bp...

    mali kaya execution ko?

    comments from those who do this are most welcome...

    good pm mga sir! on fat loss po ako ngayon, actually chan yung gusto ko alisin. ang diet ko po is nililimit ko yung rice ko ng 2 cups lang per day then yung other meals ko is puro chicken breast nlang. syempre may workout, then cardio pag off gym. nag switch po ako ngayon sa red rice, does this mean na pede na ako mag rice sa bawat meal ko? thank you!

    pasensya na po sa tanong. sorry din if wrong thread ito

    Regarding reverse grip BP, the problem hereis the grip because it limits the ROM kung straight bar gamit mo. Try it on dumbells for more grip variations and better angles to hit.
  • XbrainXgainXbrainXgain Posts: 818
    I tried incline reverse grip w/ dumbbells too. Ganun din naramdaman ko. More on delts and triceps. Ramdam rin sa chest pero not so much. Di ko alam kung sa form ko lang pero I checked jim stoppani's form, gayang gaya ko naman.
  • badass_vinchbadass_vinch Posts: 4,471
    Try lowering the incline kung adjustable yung bench or much better gawin mong flat. If you still dont feel it in your chest maybe your body structure is not suited for that exercise. Its hard to fully isolate the upper region since the whole pec area is contracting. More trial and error pa siguro brother hehe. Mahirap kasi iassume na its not working especially pag mararmi ka na nagawang pressing movements. Exhausted na yung assisting muscles bago mo tamaan yung upper pecs.

    kaya dapat e di msyado mabigat agad ang load jan sa RGBP... mhirap tlga sa una gaya ng cnbi ko. pero so on masasanay din... ako parang diko msyado rmdam habang ginagawa ko sya, pero rmdam ko n may nagbago sa upper pecs ko. at diko sya nararamdaman sa tri's ko. sa delts medyo pero wala lng... more on pecs tlaga sya. :sport:

    normal ba na mas mahirap pag more than shoulder-width ang grip sa pull ups ?

    last week kasi, shoulder-width ang grip ko sa pull ups. this week, i tried a bit wider grip at same reps lang ang nagawa ko. nahirapan ako magdagdag ng one more rep

    experience ko on pull ups and nabasa ko, it doesn't matter. Personal references lang talaga yung pagitan ng grip neto.

    Literally mahirap talaga to if you are following the strict form ha ( Not the half pulls or anything related ) Max ko lang ata dito na may weight eh +20lbs para na akong mamatay lol.
  • nrg500nrg500 Posts: 1,233
    ^ yes, based on preference ang grip width pero ang tanong ko kung mas mahirap pag ang grip ay wider than shoulder width

    i always do pull ups at shoulder-width grip but I've tried yesterday to use a bit wider grip. same reps lang ang nagawa ko


    full reps din ang ginagawa ko sa chin ups at pull ups. arms fully extended at the start of each rep
  • DSmallDivideDSmallDivide Posts: 4,565
    for me yes. in fact pag pinaglalaruan ko ung grip width and variations ng grip (supinated, pronated, neutral) i can tell i'm activating a different small muscle group sa upper back whenever i do the pull and it might just be me but i also notice differences leverages during the "slight" kip w/c allows me to pull better and faster depende sa grip. :)

    Ano yung sinasabi sa tpc na :

    -your knees are exceeding to your toes

    Nalalabuan talaga ako sa roy_techguy mag post lol.

    if its extremely wide im sure mas mahihirapan kang i-execute ng maayos. i usually do it a little wider than shoulder width cause that is my comfort zone na i can stretch and contract ng maayos. well i have tried a much wider grip before and yes it feels awkward to the point na you cant give all your strength to do more reps or add more weight.
