I think the guys that own it are christians but they arent born again in your face mention it all the time kind of christians. infact they have never even mentioned it to me. The owners are great theyw ill always stop for a chat and to help you out. Also will answer any questions about certains excercises, dieting etc. Ive got several friends to sign up and they love it there because it has a more "homely" feel to it. They arent a big business like zest and stuff.
Also the owner has won heaps of awards for bodybuilding and the gym is aimed at weights instead of have 10,000 cardio machines like most gyms looking to cash in on women after winter haha. It has everything you need including boxing circuits and stuff. I wouldn't go anywhere else. |

First of all this a very great answer , complete with tips as well, which is according to the question... Excellent! Now, looking at ur Mon/tues/wed, wouldn't it better to change the shoulder/ tricep to another day because u just hit tricep/or shoulder indirectly on ur chest workout like bench press, cuz i thought they need rest a day/2? and is it really enough to only hit each muscle a week rather than twice a week? what im thinking to do is 1 day - chest,tricep shoulder 3rd day - back,bicep and repeat it twice a week or just one muscle like yours and do it once a week is better? |

That guide was rough I tend to mix it up each week to make it more fun. Your right that you hit it indirectly but because you give them the 5 or so days to rest its ok. If you are doing them twice a week you aren't leaving them enough time to heal and you wont be lifting as heavy meaning not as big gains.
Somethings do work differantly for differant people though, however I suggest trying each group once a week and pushing the absolute heaviest you can while you are bulking. Your body can handle ALOT more than the brain lets you know so you will get used to your "second wind". If your doing 4 excercises on your chest and pushing the absolute heaviest you can and repping it out you will feel it over the week and I guarantee after a good day it WILL take the 5 or so days until the tension goes back to normal. If you are cutting and therefor Isolating certain muscles for more reps at lower weights then doubling up during the week would probably be ok as your trying to tone. If you havn't checked out www.bodybuilding.com yet get on there and have a look at some of the routines on there. As I said you will notice differant things work for differant people and mixing it up to find what works best for you is part of the fun. Never let it get boring, Gym is fun time not a chore! Also one last tip that i was told by a friend (who is huge btw) he told me to put gym above everything else, never miss a night. Once you make an excuse for one night you will do it again and again and again. If your mate asks you to goto the movies at 6pm and thats your gym time its OK to say "I'm sorry mate, I finish gym at 7 so after that is fine". |

how much is it to join coliseum? both on peak and off-peak. i hear good things

ive been to coliseum, arena, craigie leisure....would rate craigie over coliseum...but its still a sweet gym and the owners dont try to pressure new members to the 1 yr membership like most places do.
Wouldve stuck with craigie if i didnt move south of river. Telling people to lift "absolute heaviest" isnt the best advice, going to lead to bad form and injury - Prob the mistake i made with squats when i started gyming. Heavy deep squats = not so great for knees. Ide say focus more on form with an amount you can lift with proper form and pyramid down 12, 10, 8, 6 etc. Cheating with heavy weight has its place but not so much for a beginner.. Everyone is different and a lot depends on genetics so youll have to figure out what works for you not going to bodybuilding sites and trying to copy a pro bodybuilders routine. As said above use as many freeweights as possible and diet plays 70% of any results youll see. Last edited by nicecar; 13-06-2008 at 09:16 PM. |
