Training a lady.

From Captnj.blogspot.com
This is a picture of my sister, shes a occupational therapist by profession. She weighs 55kg only which is ... i would say... just nice for a girl of her height. She has been training in the gym for 3 months ONLY and has made more progress than any other person at the gym we go to. Her training is all compound movements. Core work and pre-hab for the hips and shoulders. Today was a NEW PERSONAL RECORD (with many more to come in the future I'm sure). 70Kg in the parallel Box squat. She tried 75kg but failed....we will get it next time. I'm really proud of her.
Does she look "big" from weight-lifting?No...then stop propagating nonsense. -
her shoulders look rather stiff

How about the other time people said that people who go gym and weight train are stiff.
Then i post a video of marco_simone doing 11 one legged squats and no one had anything to say?
maybe it looks stiff because it is broader than yours.

to paraphrase Brook Kubik:most people in the gym are just PRETENDING to train...

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE TELL THIS CHINESE NATIONAL WEIGHTLIFTER THAT HE IS FREAKIN STIFF??

FLEXIBLE ENOUGH? -
people with big muscles will become muscle bound and hence can't run... -

This kid does almost the same things as the lady in the thread -
At first I thought his "sister" was the barbell when the second picture didn't load yet.
I think I can go commit suicide liao.

People keep throwing all sorts of myths at me and i proved them all wrong.
People say 6 pacs are the epitome of fitness, i showed them a clip of a guy with a belly doing 32kg weighted pullups for 5 reps + his bodyweight of 80kg.They kept quiet.
People say marco_simone those dua jia size guy cannot do this or that.I showed a clip of him doing single- leg squats for 11 reps and they diam diam.
People now say weightlifting creates "stiff shoulder" and seemingly other stiff body parts.I showed pictures and they have nothing to say. -
the mods here very ...erm.. snobby huh...

I receive all sorts of nonsense PM from people critiquing me about my hobby, how i would become stiff ar, penis shrink ar, run slow ar.Originally posted by mhcampboy:the mods here very ...erm.. snobby huh...
The agenda of the forum is to prove the urban myths of weight-lifting wrong.Yet, most people cannot face reality and keep using the same thing over and over again. -
Just started working with a 18 year old female. Never trained before in her life. I will be posting her progress on www.scientificfatloss.com - first post going up this weekend.
You will see what serious strength training can do for fat loss. -

Wow, that chair is a good idea to prevent injury sia if u gonna do squat, wonder why gym dun have the chair
Coz when i try to fit those parellel bar for safety measure, they make alot of noise which is kinda irritating -

Its not really a chair, its a wooden crate/box.This is to enforce correct technique for a beginner squatter(In a squat, you must pretend that you are sitting back).I have seen metal militia powerlifters using a bench though.Originally posted by pierre^^:Wow, that chair is a good idea to prevent injury sia if u gonna do squat, wonder why gym dun have the chair

Advanced squatters use it as well, so no shame.It might also be used to improve "sticking points". -
