I say 145 if you're really going to do it
I'm also 5"6 and currently 135 which is way too skinny imo
I was 145 at one point, but diet fell behind
I'm looking to actually be 150-155 by the end of the year and eventually around like 170-180 (after years and years and years lol)

Hey fcukedd
When you switched from low reps to high reps on bench did you keep the long break or shorten it to 30s-1min

I don't count how long my breaks are, but I rest enough to where I feel I can hit the same amount of reps (+/- 1) from the set before.

I personally don't believe in the typical 30s-1min hypertrophy, 2-3mins for strength timed breaks.

Yeah I was just wondering
My usual strength breaks are usually 5-6 minutes lol
Pretty much the same as what you said, enough time to get +/-1

So same thing for hypertrophy? Just started hypertrophy training last week
I did 30s-1min breaks, but IMO I feel like its kinda short

^awesome transformation. I don't think chest is lacking. Again different people different opinions and goals. Chest looks perfectly symmetrical and aesthetic to me (slightly homo).

Unless you know something that the ingredient label is hiding, it is 100% coconut water.

quick question brahs, so im going mexico in november and trying to lose some lbs here, now i know in this case its all about the diet but i need some help in regards to my workout program

what im currently doing is this

day 1 : lowerbody training (3x8-10) , 20min cardio
day 2 : 40min cardio is the recommended
day 3 : rest
day 4 : upperbody training (3x8-10) , 20min cardio
day 5 : 40min cardio is the recommended
day 6 : full body training (3x8-10) , 20min cardio
day 7 : rest

now i feel that it lacks in the training section a lot..just because i feel like i dont do enough of a certain-muscle in that day and i feel that it doesnt motivate me enough to want to do it. Should i change it up? before i use to do the a-muscle-a-day type of workout (so mondays is just chest, tuesdays just back, ,etc etc )

but i was thinking of going into something more like this (i made it up) :

day 1 : chest n bi , cardio
day 2 : cardio
day 3 : back n tri , cardio
day 4 : cardio
day 5 : leg n shoulders , cardio

and my rest days are the other 2 days off (this doesnt mean itll be saturday and sunday as i havent decided what "day" goes on monday, tues , etc etc )

anyone got any good recommendations on a good workout plan , or better yet those who are on the plus size, something that has worked for you to lose weight ?

Honestly I would consider the cardio as a rest day.

Found out today that my knee pain has nothing to do with my ACL

it's actually the misalignment of my patella with my femur bone (patellafemoral pain syndrome), that causes too much rubbing on my femur bone, because I have flat feet and I'm quad dominant LOL

hamstring and calf days here I come!

Tried out my TK knee sleeves today. No idea why it took me so long to buy knee sleeves in the first place. Great investment! My right knee has been clicking for the last week and the warmth from the sleeve got rid of this annoyance by my third set. Also, the compression gives off a false sense of security, which I kinda like... My knees feel more stable.

I think that my knee pain is caused by my quad... Its not firing as well as the other one.

Yeah I know that feel

i was told that when I squat down, because I'm so quad dominant (with particular respect to the outer quad), my quads push my patella inwards and its rubbing on my femur

if I work more on glute max, hamstrings, and adductors,(via recline leg press, short stride lunge, and hamstring curls yes, the dreaded hamstrings curls) it'll help stabilize my knee as i squat down... So in a sense, I'd be isolating the posterior through the exercises rather than pure squatting with weights which will emphasize/amplify the muscle imbalance

If I were you, I'd do chest n tri on one day and back n bi on another day simply because when you do chest, you work your chest. And when you do back, you work your bi. Unless you have the intention of working bi and tri twice a week.

i believe this was discuss a while agoo , prob when you werent a member yet and i know there are two sides to this whole back/bi vs back/tri thing and ever since then ive decided to stick with back/tri :P thanks for the heads up tho
