Have you tried stretching or using a really light weight at the end of your sets to try and push lower? I've always had good hip flexibility despite my long legs. My hamstrings are pretty poor though.

Next session go

bar x 10

40 x 8

60 x 5

80 x 3

100 x 1

then go 115 and 120

stop doing a million reps before your 1rms

Why you gotta hate on my gazillion reps? I love the volume stuff.

I know that's the best thing to do to increase 1RM, i.e. cut down on my volume...so I'll probably turn to it when I start plateauing bad with the current setup. But for now I enjoy sticking the 1RM after a heap of working sets. Because Birds

Yeah I gave up reading after the first two comments. The chosen answer supposedly a trainer for an international weightlifting association? Err...

There's misinformation and then there's MISSINGinformation!

do your volume after you go heavy, not before... just do enough to warm up, hit a pb, then do a heap of volume work

^^ This.

You're not going to find your 1rm doing it your way.

You're only going to find your exhausted 1rm.

Do it like I said, then once you fail a 1rm, have a 5 minute rest, then load up your volume sets and go for broke back mountain

60kg x 10

75kg x 10

90kg x 8

100kg x 3

110kg x 1

Got a bit worried on the 90, being down a rep from Friday. Felt good about the 100 x 3 though, so I shot for 110kg and there it is. Will try and get 2 of them next time or shoot for 115.

60kg x 10

75kg x 10

90kg x 8

100kg x 3 (died half way up on 4th rep)

115kg x 0 (died half way up)

Didn't make the 115 tonight; back just didn't want to work with me after the fail on the 100s. Next time maybe!

Was sick with a cold this week, debating whether to come. No one ever got anywhere by being home with a cold, so here I am.

Feel like I'm leaning forward too far on the heavier weights and the motion is turning into a bit of a good morning, as my back is giving way before my legs are. Seems to be consequential of trying to squat all the way to my ankles in oly stance; need to sit back on my heels more and keep the hips from coming up before my back. Hoping to post better results next sesh.

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
