Daily Dose

Edited for better Reading:

I started working out at the age of 19, stopped at the age of 21 due to busy schedule from my first ever Job which is a sales agent for a Japanese car brand.

I stopped and assumed that I will not loose any of what I invest on my body until I slowly noticed the changes..

My belly begins to look bloated, I started to have a love handle that eventually turned into handles.. hahaha!

Now I'm 29 I became a father 2 years ago.. My wife teases me always of having a daddy belly.. It's a joke that made me realized that I should start going back to the gym.

I enrolled to a simple neighborhood gym that resolved my problem.. It's triple "D" for me.. DRIVE... DEDICATION... DISCIPLINE... Put these in mind and it will make you keep on reaching for your goal..

Big thanks to this community because of the help and knowledge you and we share to other people...

    Hi Sir!

    I have to admit that I'm too lazy to do a leg workout even if I know it's not good not to do it.. I think I need a convincing input why I should not avoid it.. hehe..

    Too bad I can't see the pic you posted due to security feature here in the office.. Though I get what you mean and I truly appreciate the feedback you provided.

    What's current lifts po? I should post the exercises I do?
  • JettieJettie Posts: 3,763
    masarap mag deep squat sir... mababawasan ang beer belly mo dyan if you are lifting hard enough hehehe :)

    I was 36ish inch skinny fat bastard before now 29-30 waist line and just this late march up to current starting to do weighted romanian sit ups and cable kneeling. All belly fat lost comes from squat and deadlifts with of course with a proper nutrition check.

    8pm-10pm. That's already too long for a workout.

    Thanks for new comments Sir. allen101 & Sir. emon02.

    @Sir. allen101 - Those love handles on my pic was a product of 7 years w/o workout, w/o proper diet, drinking, etc.. Now is the time to trim it down slowly.. haha!

    too bad you weren,t able to see the pic posted by jettie...eto yung tinatawag na macho pero chicken legs....
    maybe this would help as far as motivating you to work on your lower body...

    i had a motorcycle accident back in 2006 which injured my right ankle...i wasn't able to walk for 3 months, after i got back to walking, it would still hurt from time to time, so i was contented with biking as exercise for my legs and was afraid to do squats and deadlifts thinking it might cause further damage to my ankle.

    Thanks to the motivation of members here, i got back to doing squats & deadlifts again, as of the moment, i can squat 60 lbs and deadlift 110 lbs...its not much compared to what most people here are doing, but i'm doing it slowly but surely...walang madalian...better than none at all...wouldn't you agree?
  • BorexxxBorexxx Posts: 167
    Sir. Noel,

    Thank you for sharing your story.

    I have to agree that I really need this exercise.. Almost 95% of people who goes to the gym where i work out was doing it, so why can't i? :)

    I'll start on this one this coming Monday. May lakad lang sa sabado na kailangan ng mahabang lakaran.. hahaha! Baka di ako maka tagal kasi sure na sasakit legs ko if i will start tonight. :)

    Leg day is the hardest but most fulfilling part of my program :^^ sabi nga nila " if your going thru hell,keep going " "if its too easy,it aint worth it " kudos bro! :^^

    in my case, i started it on a friday...because i was expecting DOMs the following day, at least i can stay at home & rest sa weekend...

    That's normal since you're doing 5x5.
    Very minimal (if any) lang naman talaga ang DOMS sa 5x5.

    Pero once na matry mo siguro mag dedicate ng isang session for legs only, Squats, Leg Press, Leg Extensions, Leg Curls, Calves Raises, and/or DB Lunges, Sumo DL, SLDL, etc... that would change the whole story kung may lakad ka kinabuksan.
    Hehehe.

    Hi Borexxxx, just like what others suggested. Do the legs! HAHAHA ganyan talaga sa umpisa nakakatamad. Pero I tell you. Kapag nakita mo na nagdadagdag kna ng plates sa squats ma-aadik ka. Naadik na nga ako sa legs eh. Dati lagi kong naiisip "Hay legs nanaman bukas" ngayon naman sinasabi ko "Ang tagal ng legs day!" HAHAHA Matindi magpapawis yung legs exercise. Maraming legs exercise! I think more than 15. Sa deadlift maganda rin yung stiff leg deadlifts for legs din tsaka may back.

    Dati nagiisquat lang ako sa may machine medyo heavy pero half squat lang tapos suggest nila dito mas maganda yung squat talaga out of machine ayun mas masarap lalo na pag babang baba! Mas tagatak ang pawis hahaha. Sa pinagtratrainingan ko bihira lang yung mga taong nagiisquat kaya agaw pansin kapag may nagsquat sa cage which motivates me tapos. Best yung Ass To Grass! Kung kaya ng tuhod go go go! Kasing bigat ng bench ko yung nagagawa ko sa squat so mukhang okay lang. hehe mababa but full ROM.

    Pag nagsawa kna sa traditional squats, try mo paminsan minsan front squats. Masakit sa beween arms at delts pero maganda posture mo at MASARAP sa abdominals!

    Hi Sir, pa daan lang basa basa thread.

    Ako rin takot sa leg workout usually ang sinasabi ko is i have an operated knee or a bad knee. But ever since na try ko mag SL 5x5 training I can say, lessen na knee pain and I can even do ATG squat right now, belly ko din laki ng liniit.
