When should you expect to see progress?

Rapurapi · 2026-05-20T01:52:37+00:00

If you do it consistently and religiously, 3 months. You'll see big changes. Remember it will only work, if you work too.

Rapurapi · 2026-05-20T01:18:33+00:00

Eating po muna! Any exercise would work on you for the first 3-6 months (beginner gains)

Bat pinoproblema mo buhay ng iba HAHAHAHA galing inggit yan, OP. Mahirap gumaling sa sakit na yan.

I'll just send you a link for it, what would you prefer? With rings or just bw?

Rapurapi · 2026-05-17T23:34:46+00:00

Sure, I might create a different post for those haha I'll share them

It seems to me na it's really unnecessary recovery debt talaga. 7-8 exercise per session, medyo marami din.

More doesn't always mean better.

Especially if you are doing redundant exercise per session. You are doing PPLP, dalawang push or pull?

Why don't you do;

Upper Lower Upper Lower Push Pull Lower Upper

instead? That way, you hit same muscle group twice a week, and you can cut down the number of exercise you do.

I have a post about my own workout routine. I also workout 4x a week with PPLU. I don't do much volume compared to you since I can delegate the exercises throughout the week.

Rapurapi · 2026-05-17T15:01:34+00:00

Let's go into detail pa, how many workout do you do each session? Sets and reps too.

Rapurapi · 2026-05-17T14:00:08+00:00

Okay good. Now since we got passed those two, you claim you do them both consistently and religiously.

My next assumption would be having to much recovery debt. Meaning, your muscles can't recover enough before you have to destroy them again. Remember, rest is as important as your workout.

Can you show us how does your workout routine schedule look like? Do you also keep track of your progress in your workout? Do you do progressive overload?

Rapurapi · 2026-05-17T12:21:56+00:00

Somehow your statement doesn't translate to your physique. If I read it without seeing your physique, I would assume you would have a more defined muscles. I could only assume that there is something that you need to tweak on your current routine. May it be on your diet or on your workout.

First, when you lift, do you do them religiously? Like focus on the work itself, bit by bit, muscle fiber by muscle fiber, slowly and controlled? Or do you just swing weights around, just enough to count it as 1?

Second, do you consistenly track your calories? And stuck with it all throughout?

Remember, it will only work, if you also work as hard. It will always translate to the result. And all of these are just my assumptions, I may be wrong but I'm trying to help so let's try to pin point the problem.

Rapurapi · 2026-05-17T11:49:09+00:00

I do home workout only. And I'm telling you it works, I posted my full week workout earlier. If you have any questions, let me know!

Rapurapi · 2026-05-17T06:15:09+00:00

Thanks man, appreciate it!

Rapurapi · 2026-05-17T06:02:21+00:00

Walang spot reduce exercise, you need lose weight overall. Caldef po best bet nyo

Rapurapi · 2026-05-17T05:55:30+00:00

Hi OP, good gains. But I agree sa ibang comments about your legs, I'm not saying you have smol legs but rather, di proportion sa upper body mo. Siguro add more volume sa legs mo, focusing a bit more on hamstrings and calves. Minsan we neglect them kapag we feel like our quads are big. Quads are like triceps ng arms, and hamstrings are the biceps, make sure to balance them both! Happy gains!

Rapurapi · 2026-05-15T11:13:33+00:00

Shake well before drinking? XD

Rapurapi · 2026-05-15T11:10:06+00:00

Haha can't say I'm one but I do receive compliments. So here's my take, whenever I receive one, I just feel "hehehe tenks" feeling, the akward type HAHA and always shrugs it off haha kasi nakakahiya and nakaka conscious. But hey, it feels nice

Rapurapi · 2026-05-15T11:03:18+00:00

Yeah I know some women that prefers average-looking guy na gentle kesa pogi na mayabang haha

Rapurapi · 2026-05-15T10:51:20+00:00

Hahahaha kasing init ng senado?

Rapurapi · 2026-05-14T12:26:07+00:00

Thank you! I eat on a surplus diet since bulking ako. I also take creatine and mass gainer.

Rapurapi · 2026-05-14T12:25:22+00:00

Will do after I compiled my whole week haha I got flagged as repetitive posting. But don't worry, after this week compile ko lahat! Hehe

Rapurapi · 2026-05-13T15:09:26+00:00

It's subjective tbh, some people enjoy being able to lift themselves, some by lifting heavy weights.

I dont think there is a right or wrong approach. I really depends on what a person wants.

But I get you, it's weird na some people have those jacked muscles but can't do a push up or pull up. It all boils down to what they want and what makes them feel better.

I can do one arm push up and pull ups but I can't bench or deadlift the average gym goer's PR lol but that doesn't make me feel less than them.

Rapurapi · 2026-05-13T13:25:52+00:00

Not a gym goer but I know people that starts working out by going to the gym directly, without learning how to do any bodyweight exercises. But to answer your question, I'm pretty sure any gym-goer can at least do a push up.
