    How high/low should a box be for Box Squats ? What should be the position of my thigh and shin once sitted on the box ?

    Can I use a bench as alternative for a box ? There is no box in the gym

    Thanks

    Depende sa depth na gusto mo itrain bro. Kung hirap ka sa bottom part, better kung lower box. Kung lockout naman, higher box. Depende sa needs bro.

    Ito nakita ko sa google bro. Try it out for yourself kasi di ko rin cinocompute yung binubuhat ko so I don't have a first hand experience. :)

    It depends on the height of the box, for above parallel box squats it's about +10%, for parallel box squats about -5% and for below parallel box squats -10% or so. These values change depending on how far above or below parallel you go and how good you are at bouncing out of the hole.

    i've only trained box squats using a below parallel box as that is where my sticking point is pero tama si bro XB ung height ng box is depende sa weakpoint na gusto mo itrain. when it comes to movement patterns kasi,the rhythm sa box squat is a bit different compared to doing normal back squats. so if you're still testing the waters to get the rhythm of the movement sa box squat, my take is do it around 50-60% of your training max then as you get better w/ the movement pattern you can increase the load up to 95% around 2-3 reps (this applies if you are training for "maximum effort" ha, dynamic effort days obviously has a different loading parameter).

    Is it possible to get bigger biceps, triceps if nagpapapayat ka?

    My wife bought GNC Total Lean Shake that has proteins and stuff and I heard protein is good if gusto mo mag muscle so gusto ko din sana inumin to para kahit papaano e pumayat ng onti dahil malaki laki din ang tsan ko.

    Beginner palang ako sa strength, Biceps Curls 25 reps for a 10 pound dumbells (Train to Failure kaya nalaman kong hanggang 25 lang talaga) and other strength exercises na tig 25 din. Hammer Curl 25 din, Tricep Extension 10 reps lang dahil hirap na ako dito, Tripcep Kickback 10 din and then usually 2 sets ko to ginagawa. Is it also okay to do this every other day?

    For losing weight naman, jogging, crunches din para lumiit din ang tsan.

    tama ba ang ginagawa ko or hindi talaga ito mapagsasabay dahil pag nagbubuhat kailangan ng strength ng katawan so if on a diet at nagpapapayat e hindi masyado madedevelop ng muscles ng maayos?

    Sorry at bago palang sa ganito. Pa-advise. Thank you!

    myth lang daw po yung overtraining wala daw talaga nun, totoo ba yun?
    Thanks

    Overtraining occurs when exercise volume or intensity outstrips the individual's ability to recover. When this happens, little or no muscle growth will occur. The body needs time to recharge itself. Remember: Exercise is the stimulus, rest is for repair. Overtraining will lead to fatigue, which slow down your metabolism. Ayon yan sa Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding.

    Kaya nga try mo sa sarili mo eh, everyday wo ka, cardio sa umaga, weight training sa umaga araw2 7days a week try mo, kung ano mararamdaman mo
  • allen101allen101 Posts: 5,102
    I think may overtraining talaga pero I doubt you are close to that.
    Siguro ung tinutukoy mo na napanuod mo si CT Fletcher, I think what he wants is just to get your ass off the couch and start training HARD.
    Just pure motivation.
  • juneGjuneG Posts: 164
    ^yun nga napanood ko sir haha yung sa biceps training nya, haha
  • @ juneG

    try mo bro! sigurado magbabago pananaw mo sa training. at baka mas maganda maging result sayo :)
  • allen101allen101 Posts: 5,102
    Yep, sa sobrang takot kasi yata ng iba sa overtraining ang nangyayari sa kanila is UNDERtraining hehehe.
  • ^mismo! ang dali naman mag-rest day pag bugbog sarado na ang pakiramdam. kesa naman konting DOMS lang rest day na kagad or 4 hours na tulog skip training na. pag nag-adapt ka sa madali at comfortable na mga bagay ang hirap maglevel up.

    Overtraining do exist pero rare eto mangyari. Sympthoms of overtraining is vomiting saka iihi ka ng itim kasi ung katawan mo maglalabas ng nutrients and minerals galing sa katawan. Nangyayari eto sa mga less active na people tpos bglang high intensity and high volume kagad training. If your athletic at active nmn sa mga outdoors bihirang bihira maovertrain ka as long as you are eating enough. Pero khit rare ang overtraining you should still make time for recovery. 72hour(2days) restday for Big muscle group and for small muscles group khit 1 full day of rest. Alam nmn nten muscles dont happen when you train, it builds up when you recover. Thats why its not recommended to work same muscles everyday.
  • Nagiging itim po talaga yung ihi sir?^
  • hahaha baka STD na yun hindi na overtraining! magpatingin ka na sa doctor pag umihi ka ng krudo LOL
  • aloy0511aloy0511 Posts: 948
    dafaq. itim na ihi? ahaha.

    @vinch
    naku pag umihi ka ng krudo baka padampot ka ng US Government. ahahahahaha.
  • Ahahaha!

    Itim ang ihi? WTF
  • Uu itim nga ihi may research un. Si layne gumawa rin ata ng vid tungkol dito. Itim ung ihi or sabihin nlng nten very dark. Kasi nga nagescrete ung body mo ng minerals. Parang may failure sa sytem mo at nilalabas nya ung mga minerals sa katawan.
