Imbalanced Muscle Training

[unitight]

Far too often, we see many gymmers focusing only on their upper body training and ignoring their legs and therefore their body look very imbalance. These are not only applicable to regular gymmers only but also for quite a number of personal trainers.

I find that a balanced well-rounded muscle guy looks sexier than the guy who has his arms twice the size of his calves .. although this is my personal preference. Any comments on this guys?

Agree with you.

There are a lot of gymers looking good in tight tops but horrible in jeans with skinny legs and flat butts.

[Utopaen]

way too many of those around...chicken feet gymmers..haha

but then again, in their defense, leg training is really a bitch.

btw, i think there is a website that actually lists down the perfect proportion for bodybuilders/gymmers, one of the considerations was calf size, it's supposed to be as big as your upper arm flexed.

True .. legs training is very hard. It is recommended to have a trainer or gym buddy who can spot as well as force you to do all those gruelling lunges (with weights), leg press, deadlift, etc, and once you reach advanced level, there are sometimes no more weights suitable for you at the gym haha .. (as all are considered light) I love to have legs muscle soreness the day after my legs day .. well worth it!

hehe...yar...i don't like to work out my legs unless I got a gym buddy ard...so can push one another.

unitight, not sure if u have heard of an exercise called the leg matrix, it's kind of cardio/metabolic training that uses ur legs a lot.

Leg Matrix

1 set = 24 bodyweight (BW) squats + 12 lunges each leg (BW) + 24 BW jump squats + 12 jump lunges each leg (BW)

try doing the whole set without stopping (of course if need to rest a bit is ok..but as little rest time as possible)...max i did was 2.5 sets and my legs were all jelly..if u wanna feel the ache.this is one good training!

Thanks Utopaen .. I've never heard of this exercise but will google and find it out later, looks very tough but worth to try ...

Maybe my buddy can motivate me to do this exercise haha ..

I thought legs training is easier because they just need to run run run ... ?

But some short guys have very big legs look ...

One colleague of mine always asked me to join running but I just dont want to have big legs as him so refused many times.

I thought flat-butt is quite difficult

I believe just by running our legs won't get a wholesome definition (thighs and calves) as when you train it with weights.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but normally runners only have a defined calves whereas cyclist have bigger thighs. And for bodybuilders - because it's more about the balance between all the muscles - normally have both ... I prefer to have both too ..

[browncow]

I dont have problems with "imbalanced training" though.

My ex-bf taught me one way to prevent that is to have a full body workout each time. (starting from the desired muscle group first for core concentration and then moving to the least desired for the session).

It works for me, though I limit myself to spending not more than 1 1/2 hr in the gym.

Castaway: depends on what kind of leg training you are talking about, just running alone does give you strong legs, but I believe unitight is talking more about muscularity. I think good examples can be found on Sunday Times Hotbods section, quite a few guys that have been on there have nice upper bodies, but if you check out their legs, while they are defined, the size is often disproportionate to their upper bodies.

I think short guys with huge legs look good though. as long as their upper body is similarly huge.

It is not easy to train legs especially for guys with slim legs, you can't see the result as obvious as chest and arms. I guess that's why you hardly see guys training their legs in the gym. But never says never coz it is possible to have better legs if you are willing to put in hard work. One of my friends succeeded after putting in lots of efforts - now he is a more balance gymer. :thumb:

Leg training is a good overall workout for all our body parts (e.g. when doing dead lift, we are also training our arms and back at the same time), so it is important to keep it as part of our routine training.

I am one of those short guys with thick legs in the gym.

Guys with thick legs are certainly sexy ... especially when they wear tights or spandex and you can see their curvy 'n shapely thighs, well rounded ass and nice defined calves yumm ...

I guess their mindsets are prolly 'I'm wearing jeans so no one can guess how toned my legs are.'

Cause first impressions do count.

I guess I am the lucky to be blessed with thick strong legs. I got that from climbing stairs everyday during my youth when I stayed in one of those walk-up apt. Stair master certainly will help with building nice legs.

I must agree in breadth but not in length. But nothing to frown, in our circle short legs is a plus. Told you I am in a bitchy mode.

[GachiMuchi]

Bitchy or Itchy?

Thick tighs turn me on.... especially tanned guys.

As on the topic of balance muscles, i have a problem with my arms. As my master hand is my right hand the muscles on my right arm is much bigger and its quite obvious . Its quite irritating when i find a tight t/shirt that fits my body but my arms dont fit the same so how and what excercise should i do?

As regarding guys with thick chunky hairy legs sure melts me everytime i get to massage them hahahahahah but itss also the hardest to massage too heheheheheh

Muscle imbalance happens with everyone including you and me. I believe everyone has more strength on their left/right hand side and as for me, it does not determined by the fact I'm left handed - in fact my right arm is stronger and my right shoulder looks rounder as well.

I think your case is a bit extreme. Most guys body part are different but hardly can be noticed by people who look at you in a glance. What you can do is to workout more reps on your weaker hand - there are many exercise that you can do it separately especially for arms: hammer curl, biceps curl etc. Unfortunately, it takes time for your left hand to catch up with your right.

Good luck!

Hey man, Thanks for the info and i am trying to do more reps on my left arms nowdays.

I have strong thick legs too.. but the best part of my legs.. yeah butt..

A btm must have smooth perky butt that a top would get hard just by caressing it.

Yeah, especially when the top rubs it with his pre-cummed dick The precum can become the lubes as well before finally inserting his tool into btm's warm aresehole.

I also got few compliments on my butt so much so that guys always wanting to screw me .. actually I'm top :whistle:

totally agree about being balanced. actualy the legs is what caught my attention FIRST -

as a top, i would think that if that other guy has great legs, he will make an excellent bottom for me...

muscular guys with skinny legs are a maj turn off for me.

PS: btw you are totally hot

To avoid such unbalanced Muscle training.

I divide my days up to train different parts of my body so as to balance out, so I don't look weird.

Monday - Chest

Tuesday - The a.b.s ? Why is the word censored?

Wednesday - Arms

Thursday - Legs

Friday - My Back or butt (whichever I feel like doing)

Saturdays and Sundays are spent going out with my boyf, or stay at home watching TV, playing games ETC.

Thank you for your compliments. Rest assured that my picture is real, unlike a very few members who grab any hot body picture from somewhere in the net and claim it to be themselves

That 3 letters of word is censored because of some major problems with one of the very well established local sauna which has the same nickname. I'm not in a position to explain it further.

Next time perhaps you should use a complete word of 'abdominal' to explain anything about this part of your body ..

The other day, I saw 3 guys from behind. They had V-shaped torsos with bulging arms.

But their legs were the same size or mine was more toned than theirs.

 

Now that's what I call imbalanced.

Oh I call them "drumstick". If you look at drumstick, it is very meaty on the top with boney/skinny at the bottom. Lolx. Edited December 15, 2013 by bluerunner

Couldn't agree more on this. especially the bulging butts in tights are mouth watering
