is that 6 reps or 6 sets?

Whats the point of doing low reps?

I do no less than 10 reps when squatting

6 reps x 3 sets. Atm I'm focussing on strength and size. Every few weeks I'll mix I turn and do higher volume stuff - lighter weight, higher reps.

lol

My legs are defined champ.

I doubt its as chiseled as mine

6 reps x 3 sets. Atm I'm focussing on strength and size. Every few weeks I'll mix I turn and do higher volume stuff - lighter weight, higher reps.

I train my legs no different than any other part of my body, by gradually increasing weight as i see fit with average reps of 10-11. Anything less than 10 reps and 3 sets is inadequate for me but most of the time i do 4 sets especially with squats. This way i get both mass and definition happening all at the same time. The idea of seasonal bulking and cutting up the next is only useful for beginners or hardcore builders, been doing this shit for 8 years now. It was only 8 weeks ago that i was squatting 60kg, however with consistency, last night finished 4 sets (first set 80kg as a warm up, 3 sets in 100kg) with relative ease. Looking into moving on to 140kg in 8-9 weeks time frame.

heavy weights with low reps are just another tool in the box mate.

People respond differently to different training methods, and most people will respond best to doing high reps AND low reps, mix it up.

Having 'big fat' legs or 'chiselled' legs has NOTHING to do with how you lift your weight or how much weight you lift, muscle is muscle, the only thing

that has to do with it is diet.

An ethiopian has chiselled legs dude ;)

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
