chronicles SG I warn you not to take their instructions/advice seriously even other personal trainers/strength and conditioning coach say they suck @ other forums.They tend to have minimal knowledge on weight-training to me.If you dont believe me go ahead and take the risk.They can talk the walk but cannot walk the talk always! You pay 1.50 or at the most 2.50 at SSC gyms how good you expect the instructor to be so i never listen to them- full of shit Their certification is generally less than what you get at cali or someone else
chronicles SG This old man(instructor) told me i must pick a weight which i can do 10 reps only- this is obviously false.There is no such thing as a standard repitition number in the first place.Like how can i ask powerlifter to do workouts which he picks a light weight and do it for 15 repitions for every set that wouldnt fulfill his criteria
borntolive SG i never go gym bef ..but curious to know r they those located in community centre gyms?
borntolive SG maybe hes trying to say pick a weight that is heavy enough for u to do 10 rep before yr hand is out of strength...theres no standard rep but heard from experts that use a weight that is heavy for u such that u can last 8-10 then rest then rep
chronicles SG No they are located in SSC sports stadiums already stated as above Singapore Sports Consuel, some of the garbage they say to you.You dont even need to be experienced to detect whether its dubious or not.
chronicles SG 1-5 reps of a very heavy weight is More for strength, likes say like around 90% of 1RM 8-12 that kind is MORE for hypertrophy, you still get strength gains but not as significant as if you would really do it very heavy
chronicles SG I hardly do that 11-13.5kg? Suprisely many people do not even know how to do it properly, keep locking their elbows or push their hips up or use their lower back,
