LOL TTT... you get me every time

my Mrs accidentally tried to deadlift 95kg last night... apparently she mis-loaded the bar... broke the ground with 3 attempts but couldn't lock it out... then got really angry thinking it was only 75kg... when I heard the story I had a good chuckle

silly woman

This is Max playing around in a bench shirt for the first time. For those that dont know, powerlifting has two divisions, raw, which is what 99.9% of regular gyn goers do, and equipped.

With equipped, the lifter wears "suits" or "shirts" to allow them to lift more weight. Its actually a different sport to raw, you actually miss lifts because the weight is too light, like in this video. Max can bench 160kg at the moment, but 140kg wasnt heavy enough to touch his chest.

I am slowly going to introduce equipped lifting on here. I dont expect you guys to adopt it, but I'll try and get you guys to understand it.

An equipped lifter is not compared to a raw lifter.

Australias best powerlifter is Wayne Howlett. He has the All time biggest totals in raw and equipped.

Raw its 935kg and equipped its 1010kg

Anyway, here is the vid

I thought the lowering phase wasn't encouraged on heavy lifts. Heard that from strong-man Elliot Hulse

Strong-man is not powerlifting.

Deadlifting a barbell is not a strong-man event..

A deadlift is lifting a stationary weight off the floor and lowering it back down.

not lifting it off the floor then releasing it.

Deadlift in powerlifting requires you to lower it in a controlled manner. this doesn't mean slowly, but it does mean controlled and not dropped.

dropping it from the top means the lift is not counted.

Dropping it from the top at any gym will mean you're kicked out.

anyway, congrats to the super strong girl who deadlifted 105kg then threw it and screamed which is a good effort because she doesn't spend 6 days training for strength which was stated on the video in invisible html code obviously.

      R34 GTT RB rough idle problem with weird RPM gauge fluctuations

      By tsuokun · Posted

      Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?

      +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
