Nice setup.

I weighed myself this morning for the first time in like 2mths, a I'd switched to slightly lower weigtht but sets of 10, up from 8, and still with 90-120sec breaks. Cut total workout time down to 35-40mins where possible.

84kg, prior to that I was usually 87+ in the mornings.

Have also been a bit under the weather during this period also, but interesting to see that I can still drop weight. I had wanted to shed a couple kgs specifically in the mid section, which is looking better, but was unsure if my metabolism would allow it now that I'm a bit older. I did adjust eating a little too, not too much less volume, but a bit cleaner.

Nothing new or exciting there, I just found that surprising as it's the most weight I've lost in a while.

When I need to get under 80kg for our work comp I switch from Pepsi to Pepsi Max in my rum a week out.

Works a treat.

Talking about dropping weight, I'm 2.5 weeks out from 4rm test at work for deads and squat.

I'm going for 4 x 170 deads and 140 for squats (slow progress).

Will be fun.

Yeah I think he was a bit worried that's why he checked with the ref straight away. The boys from my gym competing tomorrow, if there's any vids I'll chuck them up. Owner from my gym came second in bench already and the other guys should do well

Recently it's been taking ~8 business days to get my BN orders lately, usually it's only about 4. Anyone else experience this?

Yeah they've posted on fb due to a few new product lines including, new thermowhey flavours and N03X they've been pretty under the pump, should slow down once the novelty of N03X wears off.

Sorry BN PR

Frikken bench spotters...no matter how much you tell some people to stay away from the bar until I've dropped the bar on myself and am screaming out for help...they still rush in to save the day at the first sign of a struggle.

If I wanted a bro rep I would have let you help me from the get go :/

I'm a good spotter!

You know you have calluses when you peel one off to find another one beneath it, and a suspected one beneath that too.

dungeon bars are the most callus causing shit I've ever come across lol, my calluses rip and bleed when I do deadlifts

    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car  
    • For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..
    • +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
