or a combination of presses, standing isnt too good for the back when going heavy. like the arms you should hit the 3 main areas of the shoulders, so presses, lateral raises , and using the cables are good.

All this time i didnt even clock this topic here....anyhooo.Ive noticed when i go gym I been gettin lazy real quick and leave after like half an hour. How can one motivate oneself?

[GT]

how long do u man go gym for ??i been goin for an hr a day after work (5 days a wk) 30 min cardio 30 on waights this cool ??

[GT]

also how do u man rate them waight machines ?good ? or sud you just go on the free waights ???(sorry 4 the newbie questions )

[Carpe_Deum]

local loop do you drink water along with your workout? alot of people dont, and this can affect your training..making you feel drained or tired easily. if you do, then maybe try changing your workout excersizes, or get a training partner. GT machines are good, but your workout should be like 70%/free weights. if ur gym has more machines its not bad still, but if you have a choice..focus more on freeweights,

Yea, I be supping the government juice whilst trainin.I could change my workout plant but i dunno what to change it to, currently i use the weight machines and buss 100 sit ups on the ball thingy. Im not really sure what else to do!

[Guest Vegeta]

lol 100 situps on a medicine ball wont get you that six pack.use more freeweights and less weight machines, plus nutrition is important too

[LocalLoop]

I dont want a six pack- it would look too mannish.

Does anyone use hammer strength machines? Theres one in my gym for the chest, it looks sick. It's not made by hammer strength but its exactly the same model.Loaded 50kg on it and it gave my lower chest a good pump.

[8BALL]

Hold tight the guys that have a 6pack without doing 1 sit up

yeah i use that, 10x 40kg, 8x 60 6x 80.I use the one for the back as well, i thinks it's called a 'behind the neck pulldown"

They're machines that are worth using right?And yeah i also saw one in my gym thats a lat pulldown thingy, and a behind the neck press.

Considering I pay a wedge for my gym it hasn't got a decline bench.What other exercise can I do to work the bottom bit of my chest

Use a flat bench, put an object underneath to make it decline.The best variation would be weighted dipsMy gym has a decline DB/BB station x10

[Guest Reggie]

Okay 1st session of September 2moro, going for the landmark of 100k flat bench press.Its been sick to see the gains I have made.May up a video
