Doing things to challenge yourself
susanlea replied to georgegeorgia's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
With pushups you put chest to floor not your todger. Go back and do another 200 correctly. -

Flat bench press is a terrible exercise for those with shoulder issues. -

If you don't go to a gym regular or lift at home or do regular bodyweight excercises what makes you think you can do pullups? You probably can't do any. It might be a low bar for an 18yo gym goer but for most people over 50yo it's a hard exercise. -

Most likely as most people either don't do strength work or eat too much. When you are in a shopping mall look around and see how many people over 50yo look capable of doing pullups. You won't see many. -

Probably 99% of people over 50 can not do a strict pull up. Nothing personal against you. -

Static holds and slow eccentrics build up tendons. -

I do the Arnold presses for shoulders. Feel much better. Doing face pulls helps build up shoulder tendons too. Dips with weights can be dangerous too. This exercise can be replicated using cables. A lot of top bodybuilders now recommend cables for rows too as less injury risk. A chest supported one arm cable row is very good. -

Does your chest touch the ground? -

I can do lat pulldowns with bodyweight but can't do 1 pullup as it is harder due to the need to stabilise the body which takes energy. -

Then you probably can't do any like most people. -
If you flew to Thailand to have fun you shouldn't be depressed.

Pull ups are hard for people over 50yo or untrained. -

Lots of europeans eat many desserts and don't have any excess issues which indicates diet is not that important if you don't eat in excess. Eat what you want but not in excess.

Life is short, just eat foods you enjoy. You never see people living to 150 and if you don't like salad don't eat it.

Living Year Around in the South - I don't get it

Air quality was terrible last month in the north. Samui is in the gulf so not really south that much. Hua Hin is a nice city and close to Bangkok. -

If Thai wages were doubled then the cost of everything goes up and less people visit Thailand.
