MEDYO TAMA KA DUN EG, MAYBE I USED THE WRONG TERM "EXHAUST". BUT WHAT I MEANT TO SAY IS, USED AS A FINISHER FOR WORKOUT. PARANG "ICING" SA CAKE.

If you are really working hard, "isolation" exercises aren't necessary.

Try a 10x10 sometime and tell me if you are not "finished" afterwards

For everyone who has been asking for this, we have the ability to film it and put it on the Eclipse website...but just keep reminding me...or tell Olympus to kick me in the butt next time he sees me so I won't forget

hey there

i concur. i think compound exercises will be more effective in the long run but isolations add more flavor to the exercise. compound exercise save time. imagine doing 5X5 with bicep curls, triceps, shrugs, etc etc etc.. imagine how much time it would burn to do all those isolation exercise.

Have you gotten your butt kinked already? I really need to know how to do this one sir.

They are similar but different. I posted the description of the dynamic row in another thread here

Nice vid

[Sl@MDuNk_Mitsui14]

nice vid, im really impressed!!! was that EG doing the demos?

on the DRows, do i have to be concious in sticking my head up in front at the top of the pull? and for the power snatch do i also have to do the jumping motion?

That was one of our assistant coaches. You have to look in front or look up as looking down may cause your back to arch in the dynamic row

For the power snatch, the jumping motion becomes secondary after a time. At first you practice tip toeing

Nope...EG doesn't let anyone touch his camera...except EG

(So obviously that means that I filmed it )

well kasi talaga naman mas better ang compound sa isolation. hehe. health, fat burning, muscle building benefits.. compound workouts are better.

[Pepeng Manas]

one thing i've noticed with the compound exercises, ang pinapatunguhan ng korte na katawan ko ay yung katulad sa mga athletes, like dwayne wade. nung isolation exercises ang ginagawa ko, ang laki ng triceps ko at lag ang delts ko... typical sa mga nagbubuhat sa gym. yoko nung ganoong katawan. pero malayo pa katawan ko kay dwayne wade ha?

I agree. Better in a sense that you build muscle more efficiently to a point that you encourage proportion strength and muscle development. They key word is better. Doesn't mean I totally forego "isolations."
