What is the name of the team that our guys play for? I'd be afraid of being on the opposing line against Alex

[probpt]

you think too much... EDT was made to be so simple that you SHOULD NOT THINK SO MUCH ANYMORE!

 

pick two exercises e.g. squat and bench, pick a weight you can roughly do for 0 reps, do each exercise back to back, always avoid training to failure.. in the end what matters is you jot the total time period elapsed, total number of sets and reps per exercise... next workout you know you have to do the same amount of work in less time, do more reps or add weight to the bar... its that simple

ah ok. i guess i was making it more complicated than it really is thanks Olympus.

The DLSU Arrowheads!!! Most guys in the gym are flag football players such as Coach James and Ja, I know Alex is part of the team. I'm sure that with the proper methods used, thier game has probably been taken to a whole different level

Bro if you're gonna be in qc i'd suggest zest or pinnacle over fitness first.

 

in las pinas, I'd suggest fitness advantage

 

for manila or makati, I'd say eclipse

 

avoid the classy gyms since you'll not get what you need there

tut tut tut!!! shame on you olympus for making sweeping generalized statements...

 

It depends on yer experience level.... after a certain time, it does not matter what gym you go to and what matters most is the attitude that you have about training and the quality of training... ]

 

shame olympus...

[Olympus]

The reason why I don't encourage classy gyms is most peole who go there only go there to be seen. I've been a member of slimmers since 2000, a charter member of gold's since 2002. I'm not generalizing here but most members of classy gyms don't really go there to train. So for those who really wanna get their money's worth, I'd suggest they go elsewhere.

True dat...you defintely won't get a model body in those "sosyal" establishments. I've been a member of them as well, and most of the "model" types in those places take steroids. I've watched them train, and there's NO WAY that they could get results training the way they do naturally.

 

I want to make it clear to the lurkers that you shouldn't be fooled by what you see in those gyms. There are a great deal of "dirty little secrets" in the mainstream modeling and fitness industry.

[Olympus]

For the haters out there....

 

The reason why we "advertise" our gym is because we were once disgruntled members of other gyms who couldn't take their lack of quality service and were looking for a better alternative.

 

One of the things that made me proud to be a part of eclipse was hearing from several people that "this is like a gym NCAA and NFL players would train in"

 

about self-serving? heck I haven't been paid a single cent to post what I have been posting, I'm just one satisfied person since I've been treated the way I want to be as a member, and now even as a part time employee of this gym.

 

For the lurkers out there, see for yourself why we talk about this gym with so much passion

[Eclipseguy]

And for all those who are complaining about us "promoting" our gym, at least we are not lying or hiding our vested interest, should vested interest be called to question. Since we are clear and open, there should be no difficulty in the readers being able to decide for themselves what is fact and what is fiction.

 

If anything, we are taking a great risk by exposing ourselves. We only stand to lose if we are lying about anything we say.

[Olympus]

back to topic, It was actually nice to hear a complement from one of the members yesterday saying that I don't look that big when wearning normal clothes, but having a respectable built when wearing a tank top..

 

It actually flattered me to hear a cleint say" I'll be satisfied if I can achieve a built like yours"

 

makes all the hard work in the gym meaning coaching and training all worth it

Promote? wala namang problema yun e

 

Pero yung sabay ninyong aatakihin ang mga establishments na gusto lang naman kumita, crab mentality na yung ginagawa ninyo. Ok hindi kayo nagsisinungaling. Oo gusto ninyong makapagpasok ng mga members ninyo sa gym ninyo, sino ba namang negosyante ang hindi gusto non di ba? pero pwede nyo namang gawin yon sa maayos na paraan e. Ok namention nyo once or twice ang tungkol sa mga negatives ng mga nasabing gym na yon. Pero yung paulit ulit na pagatake ninyo to the point na pumapasok pa kayo sa mga respective threads nila para magblack propaganda, unethical yon. Sabihin na natin, marami silang flaws. Oo totoo yon. Pero ginagawan naman nila ng paraan e. I can attest to that.

 

Yung tungkol sa anumang nagawa nila sa inyo, hindi ko alam kung exaggarated lang kayo o hindi pero nasisigurado ko sa inyo na nasa minority ang case ninyo. At yung mga staff nila e ginagawan ng paraan para mapabuti ang serbisyo nila.

 

Baguhan pa lang kayo sa industry na ito. Matagal na sila sa industriyang ito. Hindi ba pwedeng magco-exist na lang kayo? Kung ganun naman talaga kagaling ang gym ninyo, di nyo na kailangan iexpose ang sarili ninyo, kusang papasok ang members sa inyo.

 

Wag nyo na lang siraan.

If our competitors have nothing to hide and we're lying, what's the problem? I don't understand what all of your fuss is about. What is your vested interest in standing up for the gyms we don't like? Our vested interest is clear. We hated the way those gyms were run as former members, so we did something about it and started our own. As former disgruntled members, we have the right to our opinion.

 

You forget that some people can afford to do a business or work for a business that, for them/us, is purely a hobby. I don't need Eclipse to live well, since I have other businesses and investments. Again, our reasons are clear.

My fuss is simple: Stop the black propaganda!

 

You have the right to your opinion and i have mine and I say your business ethics sucks and your gym sucks. My vested interest in those gyms is none of your business. Your vested interests in this message board including the other board where i also saw u posting however is my concern. I couldn't care less if you can or cannot afford to go into business. I am not here to weigh my riches with yours.

 

Btw, I just talked with management of the two gyms you have been attacking. They told me to let you go. You are what they call "Entertainment". Made me realize wasting time conversing with you when I can just sit back, grab something to eat while laughing at your pathetic attempts to earn a living or better yet, I could just charter a fixed wing aircraft to Amanpulo and enjoy the scenery. Ciao.

They're kinda right though eclipseguy... i gues it comes from being very passionate about your work that you think its fair game to rat down on institutions that just suck... On the otherhand, Olympus did mention other gyms that was worth going to besides your gym. So i guess yer intention to improve the fitness industry is the main concern..

 

Although i have to admit that brotcha crotcha is correct about if you guys do get the best results and you do have the best principles regarding fitness standards, then you guys will surely come out on top in the end... only a matter of time... however, Its kinda sad to say that fitness first really just has a better business model... its convenient.. its clean.. its does not smell like pumped up manhood.. its sometimes smells like a spa for christs sake.. its not daunting.. not intimidating.. and it seems to cater to general fitness.. Given these variables, they really cater to a different set of clients and it wouldn't be fair or nice of you to judge them or the their "happy" clients as being wrong...

 

Its now really a question of marketing.. however if we were to go back to topic, Then yes... I agree that fitness first DOES NOT INNATELY HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO DISH OUT GUYS/GIRLS WITH MODEL BODIES... even if there are people here who do look modellish or are models already, it was not a product of the gym but rather a product of another gym in the past and they just work out in fitness first because its clean and nice and smells good and lots of girls.... all the reasons why i work out there...
