:yes:

well nismo?

so I went down to the PTC yesterday... cool little gym and friendly bunch of people, thanks Markos!

I took it relatively easy as I've never been to a PL comp before and didn't want to embarrass myself... so definitely some more in my squat, and heap more left in the deadlift... totally underestimated how nice the proper DL bar is to use and could've easily gone 200+... maybe next time;)

Squat > 160kg

Bench > 110kg (failed @ 115kg)

Deadlift > 190kg (should've opened with this)

not a bad effort considering I don't train for power lifting... but some super strong guys down there, makes for a humbling experience!

Not sure how to embed video from FB here? can't link due to privacy settings on my FB page

Nick did really well, his only issue was weight selection. His last deadlift of 190kg should have been his opener, I think Nick could have pulled 210kg+

This was a novice comp with mostly first timers, none of the 9 lifters I have going to Worlds lifted, theyre really strong

Nick also displayed excellent technique on all the lifts

As far as equipment goes, nothing better than what we have exists, we have the highest standard available anywhere in the world

The bar they guys benched and squatted with costs $2000, the calibrated plates are $14kg

This is important as we send lifters to Worlds.......no surprises when we get there

Tom, the best gym in the ACT is Elite Physique

They hold numerous comps there. Next one is the GPC National Push/Pull, a bench and dead only comp

This event will be held on the same day in VIC, NSW, ACT, WA, QLD, NT, November 18.

South Australians are coming to Vic to compete this year

Nick missed out on the competitors meeting, I explained we judge hard

Even though its a novice comp, we judge it like a Worlds, no second chances or whoopsies

One guy had his 175kg bench press red lighted because he put the bar back before the rack call

Massive difference between gym lifts and comp lifts

Nick now has official comp lifts to judge his progress by

If any of you guys feel like helping out some of the NSW peeps that would be great.

They have just started a thread for all of them to get healthy.

Seems to be a lack of good info other then exercise.

Drop in and give some tips if you have some free time

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?  
    • I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.  
    • Welcome Mark. Do you have a Skyline or are you looking to get one?
