please post bitaw height and weight.

I'm...

Height 5'11"
Weight from 247lbs. to 190lbs.(my goal was within the 180~175lbs. but I'm very ok with this already.)
Bodyfat 27.4%(obese, my goal is 15% or lower. will take another measurement maybe next week or January na tingali) <
BMI 26.5(obese, measure2x this just for fun. The body I'm aiming for goes beyond BMI )
Lifting for more than 2 years already.

dili lang ta muapil ug post2 ngari kay makaulaw kaayo hahahaha! bug.ata ana inyo gipangAlsa, next Dec. maabot na unta nako na mga kabug.aton

hehehe.. ayaw ka shy..pero naa ra na nimo if mo post pud ka or dili.. hahaha.. mas dako pa gali ma lift ni goryo kai sa nako..

slow gud na from the beginning like I remember doing my first bench press it was only 60lbs.
and when I try to push it to 80lbs. na lata gud ko, and it happened again when I tried 100lbs.

It looks and feel cool when you lift heavy weights at the gym but for me what is important is form... I'd rather lift light with correct form than lifting heavy with wrong form. :mrgreen:

the new motto should be "slow but sure" not "no pain, no gain"

OT: it really depends sa goal nimo... lower reps(4~6 reps) means more strength but less endurance(mo burot gud ka ani) and higher reps(15~25) means less strength and more endurance(think of those long distance runner)...

moderate low(a little more power) reps(8~12 reps) or moderate high(a little more endurance) reps (12~15) gives you best of both worlds. IMO this is the best because it promotes "functional strength" and also sakto ra ang size and power...

of course reps alone won't do work with out the right weight.. it's like spoon and fork.

too much weight and high reps might cause major/serious damages to the muscles... dangerous.. and too light and little rep.. well.. you might as not lift at all cause there's very little or no effect kai dili ma challenge imong muscles...
