Shaved head, piercings, covered in tatts, both arms, back, chest lol

I've shaved the head right back a couple of times, got 4 piercings on my ear/face, one tatt on shoulderblade..but you win :P

Lifts kettlebells in Ugg boots. lol

Kicker right there ladies and gentlemen.

6'6" and 160kg. He's 21yo and had his first ever session on June 8 2010

He failed a 40kg x 5 bench press that day, only got 4. He weighed 105kg

He now squats 300kg, bench presses 180kg and deadlifts 300kg

Those figures are just obscene.

The best motivator for improvement is competition

The highest level of competition is Worlds

If you cant make big improvements going to Worlds, may as well hang it up now

Tolga, Max is now 89kg in the morning, he wants to lift in the 100kg class next year

Jacks improvement has come about because of his 55kg weight gain, plus not missing workouts

Yeah Jack is obviously a bit of a unique case, his genetics are obviously near on PERFECT for powerlifting. Normal people don't get that huge and that strong. He's gifted, that's for sure.

I'd love to get into competition, but since I ultimately lift weights for appearance reasons, I can't make the time for competition regimes :(

Spiros, Emad and Max all hit PB's today, 17 days till they lift at Worlds

Spiros squatted 230kg, Emad squatted 232.5kg and Max squatted 250kg

Nina and Amanda both hit bench PB's, theyre off to worlds as well

Amanda benched 67.5kg and Nina benched 77.5kg, thats 2.5kg above her own WR

Had 5 new people join the gym this week, strength is on the rise

Waiting for Nick to do a Saturday morning session, best session of the week

Me? not sure I can hang with those boys! what's the go on Saturdays? I could really do with some coaching...

That squat from Max was soooo smooth, serious power

How much does Emad weigh? bloody strong for a lean bloke!

So in an attempt to get stronger out of the hole I setup the pins at the very bottom squat position and did dead start squats... I attempted the PPP program in this fashion but it was not happening... had to drop 10-20kg off each lift! ... bloody hell its hard with no bounce

Then bench, going well, trying to practice the pause

Then straight leg deadlifts standing on blocks... stretch those hammies! I can barely touch my toes:/

Dips / face pulls

good session

already feeling better/stronger... even pinched some protein powder off my old man

    • Nope, but they are definitely one of the default choices. Well established.
    • Has anyone used > https://performancecoating.com.au/  
    • Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now. 
    • Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.
    • I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.
