Pepeng Manas Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I'll use our favorite circuit in Eclipse which we call "4 horsemen" 20 lateral jumps10 bodyweight squats20 lateral jumps10 dumbbell thrusters20 lateral jumps10 pushups20 lateral jumps10 db swings That's one interval. rest 90 seconds and do a total of 3 intrvals. As your fitness level improves, you can either increase the weight used or decrease rest time For one of my athletes who is amartial artist, I made him do 10 burpees or sprwals in place of the 20 lateral jumps wow! that's one heck of a rigorous activity! thanks for the enlightenment, sir EG.

Train yourself first off with Tabata intervals before trying it again. It takes at least a month of preparation to get ready for that interval type training Quote Link to comment

archeripoo Posted November 13, 2006 Share Posted November 13, 2006 Sir olympus, what's HIIT? Ang nattry ko lang na circuit, (kung circuit nga ung tawag dun) e ung body pump ng FF... Quote Link to comment

chicboy18 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 How do you lose the fats on the side of ur belly? Quote Link to comment
Eclipseguy Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 How do you lose the fats on the side of ur belly? You have to lose total bodyweight/bodyfat. It's IMPOSSIBLE to spot-reduce. In other words, what you are asking cannot be done without losing weight in general. Quote Link to comment
the0mouth Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 mga experts, dito uli ako nagtatanong ng newbie questions, almost finished a month of training or workout or whatever i wanna call it. ang routine kasi nung nagtuturo dito is yung program ko is chest, back and shoulder, 2 weeks ko ng ginagawa yun, alam ko na yung mga protein and carbo rich foods, ang question ko is habang nagdadagdag ako ng bigat ng binubuhat ko, lets say, dumb bells is 5kg, kapag 7.5kg di ko na natatapos isang set or yung bar, magkabilaan siya is 2.5kg, so kapag ginawa ko na 5kg na, di ko na kaya buhatin. so anong advisable na gagawin ko. kasi napapansin ko na the more weight na ginagawa ko, the more na sumasakit katawan after ko training or the day after but its ok nagbabago naman katawan ko, hehehe! lumaki na ng kunti katawan.

Your training is crap. I don't see any lower body work. I'd suggest you start the 5x5.. Your trainers apparently have no clue on how to train properly2. You're lifting the weight that's too heavy... focus on being able to complete all sets and reps but still having a challenge Quote Link to comment
the0mouth Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 @olympus sori di ko pala na add, may machine din na training for lower body, yung nakaupo tpos sa paa may bar, dati 10kg lang but parang magaan so nagtry ako ng 20kg and yung 2nd is yung nakadapa na medyo angat yung puwet, ganun din gawa ko. kasi po ibang lahi yung trainer and di masyado marunong mag-ingles. kasi yung isang set niya is 10reps, so bawat training is 3 sets.

What gym do you go to? The fact that you don't do squats already means your training is crap. Quote Link to comment

This is one of the worst programs I've seen (admitted) online in a long time. If you are not doing free weight barbell SQUATS, you might as well not go to the gym. There is nothing that looks more rediculous than a guy with a developed upper body and chicken legs. AND MACHINE TRAINING FOR LEGS IS NOT LEG TRAINING!!!! Unless, that is, you are training for a sabong :hypocritesmiley: Quote Link to comment
