Might try this myself for comparison. I regularly train in the 10 rep range and 90 is my warm up weight. I'll take a guess at 15 too.

I suggest we have forum challenges like they do on some others.

suggestions.

Body weight squats for reps

bodyweight bench for rep

100kg deadlift for reps

chins for reps?

50% bodyweight for overhead press for reps?

Other forums make the competitors film the attempt... up to you guys if you want this or not.

Winner to get photo taking tips from Birds.

Sounds good, how do we know if someone has done a complete session before hand though.. could be Cheating :P

or we just gonna go fresh? either/or i dont mind.. fresh will be more then 19 though ;)

Fresh or not, up to the individual...just like any other comp. Maybe a new challenge each month...opportunity for multiple attempts and time to upload a vid.

BOOM! lol

"Even among volunteers who had excess tummy fat"

phew!... I'll keep squatting then... and eating hamburgers

Not reffering to you Nick, but i love how people associate tummy fat with being "unhealthy" on the inside, just as people associate lean and muscular with "healthy" on the inside

You are what you eat, and just casue it doesnt show on the outside, doesnt mean your guts and arteries arent rotting (to speak figurativley) on the inside..

totally agree... my mate lifts and is very lean with full abs... but I live much healthier and completely destroy him in pretty much any athletic competition we try (and I tell him about it... a lot)

I'm mostly interested in performance however I'd still like an awesome physique... but I refuse to sacrifice my health for it

still the excess fat isn't doing me any favours... fat doesn't lift weight and unlike muscle it does slow you down

Im not doing no comp when I know Ive got bugger-all chance in winning! lol; same reason I dont bet....

:( just not strong enough..........................................................

....yet

Lifts are going up each week & Im trying different body part exercises (today was "new" day; do what I havent tried before), so Im gaining strength & Im positive my teste has risen of late, plus Im feeling good & loving life. Frame is building, slowly.

But - TBH I do this for me, and have got SFA to prove to anyone else bar my next weights session

Ask me in a year, perhaps. But I'll quietly admire your efforts :)

One thing I noticed today, after just a few sessions on shoulder shrugs (via dumbells & panetta deadlift machine), was how much meat has been added superior to my clavicle. Other thing today was my knees hate me for doing leg extension.

I meant real coffee... instant coffee is :sick:

can you take casual shoes and go for a walk on your lunch break?

No espresso machine at work and I prefer making my coffee myself if not I go free instant. Plus I don't need the kick of a real coffee yet, would rather an instant then another halfway through the day if necessary.

Could maybe go for a walk but I like my free time and it's only a 30 min break.

no tricep kickbacks

no special rules for guys who are female weight (Hi Troy)

no calculators

no excuses about just did a work out before this attempt / coil packs are buggered / it was too hot / ceramic turbo wheel / have a full time job / intake is not 3 inch / ran out of micronised isolated cluster creatine so had to use regular etc etc.

I'll start a new thread on the comp for January.

The winner of that comp gets to pick the next one for February (out of the ones listed so far and maybe some others we can come up with)

You get to attempt it as many times as you want in that month

Film it and post it as your attempt.

    • HPA do an interesting video on tuning, and Adrian shows on the dyno, moving from 10:1 to 12:1 (And I think even 13:1) and the power moves SFA. However, a couple of degrees of timing has a HUGE impact. Exhaust side of things will more be the length of the exhaust and how many bends and turns you have. The straighter you can keep it, the better. By a lot. Oh, and getting the diameter right. Bigger isn't always better. Going to big can actually lose you power.
    • I have to say, most people I see on the road fit the bill of atrocious drivers. Whether they be cowboys in their dual cabs, bogans in the Commodores, or the soccer mums. Pretty much most people on the road put zero freaking thought into driving. Barely look further up the road then the end of their bonnet, and have never even thought about how catastrophically wrong shit can go, by doing what they all deem as normal driving. Especially their late braking, racing to stopped lights, and sitting half a foot off the bumper of the car in front at 110km/h. Wanna know what's even better? By the time their kids get to be old enough to learn to drive, they've already got in the back of their brain what is normal driving, how annoyed you're allowed to get at people etc, and then their parents who actually have zero freaking skill at driving (Even though they constantly say "I've been driving for 20 years and never had an accident!") teach the little twerps how to drive, or should I say, how to make a car move. Literally watched a parent teach their L Plater, on a 4 lane freeway, that you just slam the brakes on, and push your way over, even with a B Double bearing down on you, and that's how you should drive, rather then, just keep going to the next exit. Same shit happens all the time for side streets etc, watching numpties pull dumb shit turns pushing across 3 lanes of traffic, rather than just go up the road another 30 seconds, and take the next turn that'll get you to the same location... Oh, and the damn right lane bandits. Or the retards driving along with their headphones in, and can't hear the ambulance or fire truck right up their ass about to run them over...   Pretty much, people drive on the road, like ego centric f**ks, and don't actually think how dumb shit their driving is, how it could easily kill them or someone else in a split second, or at the very least, how they're driving is contributing to all the shit they're bitching about on the road, like shitty congestion!
