^^ Yep delts and bi's are looking good man!

I went to Sydney for a week and diet went straight out the window! Trying to put it together, hopefully can get everything on track tomorrow.

I CAN'T STAND IT WHEN I AM NOT IN A GOOD RHYTHM!

LOL that's why I hate going on holidays, unless I can find a gym nearby. Same deal with getting sick.

This. I've been thinking of going on holiday for a while but don't want to miss the gym and not eat right. I thought it was bad that I was so worried about it. Good to see I'm not the only one lol

argh im so out of whack with training.. this is meant to be my weight gain season... but with house reno's and car build ups, and working after work and extra before work, im too farked to even pick up a weight...

its good that im doing physical activity, but its not lifting... although carrying bricks and swinging sledgehammers is a great for the shoulders and traps.

bump

my 12-13 month work in progress

edit: anyone recommend any pre-workout supps?

I think those NO type products are a crock of shiezer personally. Slam down a nice protein shake (one with carbs) about 1hr or so before you lift, then some creatine monohydrate about 15mins before entering the gym as i find it gives me that extra oomph to squeeze out those few more reps etc. Failing that, could take the cheaters approach and go see your doc and get a "subscription"

ive sorted out my "no time to workout at home" problem...

ill workout at work!!

im in my office doing lunges, squats, one handed snatches, deadlifts, shoulder press, shrugs and bent over rows with water cooler jugs... its bloody brilliant... dunno why i never thought of it before..

It's amazing where you can workout and with what lol. I always had this weird fantasy of being stuck on a deserted island (as long as I had food and water) and all I could do with the time spent there (besides trying to get rescued) was become some fit as f*** bastard from lifting rocks and shit.

Yer.

Still, nothing beats that first couple of sessions back after a break - the feeling of "I'M BACK!" when you feel like you never looked so big lol.

Ohh man that feeling is sick! But your in for a sore couple of weeks on your return lol + you don't lift as much which sometimes gets you annoyed and you lose concetration lmao but if i feel the burn i am happy! :bunny:

LOL!!! Man I wanna know where you work just so I can walk past your office and see your shirt with dark patches :happy: Or seeing a water jug getting lifted up high from over the desk hahaha

hahaha... dark blue shirt FTW!!.. and im sorta the only one at my office.. so i got free reign of the place...

and birds.... f#$k the deserted island... i wanna go on a massive cruise ship... 6 weeks... eat, train, eat, rest, eat, train, eat, rest.. look at mad scenery, eat... repeat..

Cruise ship sounds plausible. Gotta say I'd laugh if I saw someone in office clothes deadlifting a water bottle for a clean set of 50 :D

Nice collection of info here boys

Got a bit of a predicament for you guys to mull over; training mate of mine has done his wrist (old injury recurring). Hasn't managed to be able to put pressure / significant weight on it for more than a month now. Getting x-rays and stuff, but can anyone suggest some exercises for circumventing the wrist and still getting a good workout, back and chest. For example I think the pec deck is one possible solution for the chest. Any other ideas?

What about figure 8 lifting straps? I've never used them but I believe they take a lot of the load off your wrists and forearms.

Yep straps are good...

Hard to suggest suitable exercises without knowing what motions put strain on the wrist. During which exercises does he feel the most pain?

When the wrist is bending or when it is static? With vertical weight on the joint, e.g. shoulder press, or horizontal weight, e.g. bicep curl?

    • It might be worth having a good look at the chassis behind the bumper then; most people prefer the series 2 look so it might have been changed to cheaper parts as part of an earlier repair
    • The car itself a series 2. I was just curious about the headlights and just wanted to confirm that they were series 1. Good to know the rest of the front end is series 1. It’ll be easier for me to find parts on the aftermarket side of things lol
    • If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.
    • THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
    • Light should be a pressure switch, not a sensor.
