Bitoy Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Notice.. puro machines. And then for W2 if you take it, they'll put you through a battery of tests but none would really be used in writing your program down. Sorry to say this but I know this not from heresay but I have been a member of gold's even nung ginagawa pa ang makati branch and I also worked there for a time. If you want a better approach, let me know and I'll help you out Bro, is there anything wrong with puro machines? What the PT in Gold's told me is that since my primary target for now is weight loss (I am 5'9", 221lbs) my routine should primarily be cardio. What would you suggest as a better approach? By the way, what is W2? Pasensya na since newbie talaga ako sa gym. Quote Link to comment

By the way, what is W2? Pasensya na since newbie talaga ako sa gym. Well I just believe that free weights are actually better options. Dude, no offense to that PT but most pTs in gold's DON'T KNOW JACK SH1T about how to train people. Some are even glorified steroid dealers. Did he even explain why you should do more cardio??? I'm sure he didn't w2 is workout 2 sa gold's aka "mediocre fitness assessment test" ser what is the Basic EDT?...can you suggest some tips to have a lean and define body?thanks ulit mga bossing can't afford to have a PT kasi ipon pa Here's a read on EDT. Please read throughit then if magulo pa, please feel free to ask me http://squatrx.blogspot.com/2008/01/unders...ng-density.html Quote Link to comment

Olympus Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 always the functional athlete. Opinion ko lang kapatid, I believe that one can achieve those desired definition by just switching free weight exercises. And as always, iilan ba talaga and dumadating sa point that they are really in the advanced stage?? Quote Link to comment

And as always, iilan ba talaga and dumadating sa point that they are really in the advanced stage??haha. oo nga eh. pagkatapos ng siyam na taon ng weight training, naintindihan kong ito lang ang importante sa akin sa strength training (in order of importance): squat, deadlift, military press, barbell row at bench press. hindi na ako naniniwala sa "left gun on mondays and thursdays, right gun on tuesdays and fridays" split para makapag-maximize ng sets and reps ng concentration curls. for the record, i fully support free weights. only.

ryujin6190 Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 i :heart: free weights... Me, too. I really love doing it. :thumbsupsmiley: Good thing that I've read some sites (years ago) about the significance of strength training. I admit, I used to do splits. But after many years of doing it, I never achieved the results that I wanted. :thumbsdownsmiley: Not until I switched to doing compound exercises (bench press, squats, dynamic rows, etc). I'm amazed that I became stronger, and bigger at the same time, in just a matter of months. Quote Link to comment

kryptonite666 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) you do crunches and the likes so that when you cut weight you'll see those packs right? Anyways dont expect solid/well defined abs if youre like say 17% bodyfat, oh yeah and BTW i read somewhere that squat and deads even pull-ups hit the abs in someway is that true?

Palakol Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 (edited) ^ palakol, ikaw na ang epal, atrimitido lang ako ano ser iyong "atrimitido?" hehe... you do crunches and the likes so that when you cut weight you'll see those packs right? Anyways dont expect solid/well defined abs if youre like say 17% bodyfat, oh yeah and BTW i read somewhere that squat and deads even pull-ups hit the abs in someway is that true?everyone, and i mean EVERYONE, has the proverbial "six-pack." some even have seven or eight. it's just an issue of the layer of fat covering it up. (refer to a diagram of the human muscle system) you don't necessarily need to do a single crunch in your life to have visible cuts on your abdominal region. you just have to have less than 10 percent bodyfat.
