Hi Mr. Foo,
ReplyDeletePerhaps you could tell me more of your training...the Intensity or duration you take between sets?
Correct me if I'm wrong...from what you written, you train only 2 days...and for how many hours / minutes...
What's your age, weight and height at this present moment?
Hope to hear from you soon.
Hello Mr. Ho, glad that you reply my message.
ReplyDeleteI’m 21, 59kg, 170cm. i spend around 2 hours to complete my work out every time i go to gym. i take a 30 seconds rest between sets and 5 minutes between exercises.
Dumbbell shoulder press. I start at 35lbs for the first set (12reps) followed by 40lbs for the remaining (to failure). Immediately after the last set, i would perform 10 more reps using 20lbs.
Lateral raise. all 3 sets (12reps) using 25lbs followed by 15lbs for 10reps.

Mr. Foo,

What are the days do you train?
Thanks.
Hi, mr ho.
ReplyDeletei train shoulder, chest and triceps on tuesdays, bicep and back on saturdays.

Mr. Foo,
ReplyDeleteDo you not train your legs as I do not see any exercises for it? If not, why?
Mr. Hi
ReplyDeletei planned to build up my upper body first, after that only train for lower part of body.
TQ.
Hi Foo,
ReplyDeleteYou have to train overall...and that's one of your many mass building problems.
