  • Just a suggestion @shane , ano kaya baliktarin mo yung sitwasyon? Bumawi ka sa 5 days, cook your own food tapos baunin mo sa work, then eat crappy sa weekend. I think 5 days of good nutrition is better than your current setup which is only 2 days (e…
  • Missed training yesterday due to hectic and busy schedule. Arrrrggghhhh! :arghh: :arghh: :arghh: Hopefully, I'll be able to squeeze some time today after work to train and lift.
  • (Quote) Kung conditioning ang habol mo, ok talaga yang prowler. Tagal na rin ako naghahanap niyan dito, kaso wala eh. Ginagawa ko na lang, nilalagay ko sa neutral yung kotse, tapos tulak. Haha! Parehas din lang naman. Just an unsolicited advice la…
  • @rtravino29 Actually, whole body exercise siya, pero main muscles na natatarget is yung traps, upper back and forearms. So yung observations mo sa mga nararamdaman mo, spot on. Normal din lang na bumigay yung grip mo especially pag last set na. Now,…
  • January 30, 2015 BW: 59.2kg [size=medium]Strength Phase, Block 1, Microcycle 4 (Week 4, Day 2)[/size] Pec Deck Warm-Up : 5kg x 20 reps, 10kg x 20 reps, 15kg x 15 reps Worksets : 20kg x 15 reps x 3 sets Seated Cable Row Worksets : 35kg x 20 reps …
  • 5 months ago... (Image) #flashbackfriday Fast forward today, yung upper ab na lang visible. Haha! I miss being lean this much. Oh well, probably next year I will go lean out again. For now, I'm still going on with the slow bulk plan. On the othe…
  • (Quote) For ordinary folks, I'd say "none of the above". That's the hard cold truth. Yes, you can be muscular, aesthetic and strong with CrossFit, that is, if you belong to the 1% of the general populace who are considered as genetic fre…
  • I have to agree with @BroScience and @Ohsnap It's just another way of getting fit and challenging yourself, setting aside your physique goals, of course, especially if you really want to build muscles. Whether you like it or not, CrossFit is the ne…
  • Picture yourself spending time with your other half 10-50 years from now. Do you see yourself still enjoying her company through thick and thin after all those years? If yes, I think it would be safe to assume that she's THE ONE. :)
  • (Quote) Based on experience, mas maganda gawin araw araw yung mobility stuffs. 10-20 mins daily is more than enough and would do wonders to your movement mechanics. Regarding foam roller, stick with the basics, kahit nga PVC pipe lang puwede yan e…
  • (Quote) Yup. Basta be consistent lang talaga sa lahat ng bagay na gusto mong mag-improve. Small things done daily for a long period of time yields GREAT results. Tried and tested ko na yan. IT professional for almost 15 years now and sitting for a…
  • Honestly, anything could be SHIT to you but AWESOME for others. You can't generalize everything. The world doesn't work that way. Always keep an open mind. My point of view, as long as you enjoy doing it, don't give a damn if others call it SHIT. :)
  • @yopyopm, Very common sa akin itong problemang ito. Sobrang tight kasi talaga ng hip flexors ko. I've been lacking lately with my mobility habits eh, tapos laging nakaupo lang due to the nature of my job. Usual na ginagawa ko pag nakaramdam ako ng p…

  • Meron din ako nung The Grid, pero I prefer the Rumble Roller nowadays. Parang wala ng effect sa akin yung The Grid eh. Haha! (Image)
  • (Image) Mobility WOD's SuperNova, Gemini and some light bands. Rumble Roller Some of my mobility toys I got last 2013. Hehe!
  • Oh well, kung wala talaga sigurong 24 hours gym sa Makati, I think I might settle down with any gym within the vicinity. Anyway, eto yung isang ma-mi-miss ko if ever I decide to go back there in the Philippines. FREE GYM MEMBERSHIP anywhere around …
  • (Quote) Yup. Set a baseline for that 30 mins time period, try to beat that on succeeding sessions. More reps, more sets, same time period. Parang ganun yung concept. Substitute training lang naman yan for today instead of going to the gym. Puro pa…
  • Due to some nasty blisters I got from Thursday's basketball game, I wasn't able to train yesterday. I can't wear a shoe without aggravating the blisters. Damn! So I just decided to just train at home today. Did a density styled training. BW: 58kg …
  • (Quote) Oks. Got it bro. Thanks for the answers. :) @Ghee Sensya na at na-hijack ko itong journal mo. Hehe! :)
  • (Quote) Yup. Compounds. The big 5, BP, OHP, Rows, DL and Squat. Goal ng phase na ito is CNS and neural adaptation. Pushing the limits of your strength (8 weeks, 2 blocks of periodization). Approximately, I'm using weights around 80-90% 1RM, again, …
  • Since usapang gunzzzz na rin dito, makikisingit na rin ako. Hehe! :) @badass_vinch Bro, question lang. During break in phase nitong current program ko, I was doing high volume, light to moderate weights (around 10-20 reps per set), sobrang vascular…
  • (Quote) Ouch! Sakit niyan. Good thing is, at least you are over that part now and on the way to recovery. And much wiser too. Moral of the story? Listen and be attentive to what your body is telling you. Hehe! :wink: Masuwerte pa rin ako kasi almo…
  • Well, I've been here for almost a decade na this coming March. Sobrang sarap din ng lifestyle dito to the point na halos wala ng challenge eh. Kung pera lang at lifestyle pag-uusapan, no contest, I'd stay here as long as I could. Unfortunately, ape…
  • (Quote) Haha! I think I pushed too hard last Monday so I decided to just rest it out yesterday. Besides, meron din basketball game mamayang gabi so I think it's a wise decision to just rest more then max-out na lang ulit sa pagbubuhat this Friday. …
  • (Quote) Parang nalalayuan na ako sa Shaw from Ayala eh. Haha! Pero depende pa rin kung san ako makakakuha ng apartment na matutuloyan. Thanks for the suggestion. Hopefully, mag-push through nga na makabalik na ng pinas. Sawa na rin dito eh. :)
  • Still not feeling fully recovered from last Monday's training. Can't decide if I should train today or just skip it and rest some more. :arghh:
  • @Emman1986 Ayan bro, dami na advice sayo. Deep massage daw sa sauna therapist. Pagkatapos ng deep massage, wag ka na humirit ng "extra service" baka lalong lumala pa yan. Hehe! :twitcy:
  • @Jiggaman Para sa akin, tuloy mo pa rin training. Avoid mo lang yung mga exercises na nakaka-aggravate sa wrist mo, anything that illicits pain, stop muna. Hindi naman siguro kawalan ang hindi muna mag-curl or barbell bench press or dips. Think of i…
