I got a friend to watch my back on the 75 and she said I was rounding it at the start of the lift, which I could feel too so I think at this stage it's just too heavy. My back hurts straight after deadlifts and continues to hurt for the rest of the night which I'm starting to worry about.

How are you finding the volume training? Recovering OK?

Volume training is fine, been doing it since December. Recovery is fine too, except I only have Sundays where I do no exercise; would be nice to have another day off, but I'm not giving up aerobics, yoga and boxing so I'm more tired than anything.

Her sleep is very crappy...very much holding her back IMO, despite me being very happy with her progress. We're trying to sort it out at the moment.

Vegetarian diet makes protein intake difficult, but I think she's managing okay on that front.

Certainly has lots of potential!

there are a few companies out that provide vegetarian protein powders, forget their names but they say there is absolutely no animal produce in them.

they were at the sydney gym expo this year.

Yeah bioflex make one :)

Your sleep and diet must be decent then, or you are not even close to your power potential.

Which is completely fine depending on what your goals are.

Diet yes, sleep no.

Went to the doctors and got melatonin tablets, slight improvement but my issue is extra stress at the moment and not being able to switch my mind off. It takes me at least an hour to get to sleep then I wake up all throughout the night. Not sure how else I can sort it out without going on sleeping pills.

    • Each province differs a bit but we only do mandatory vehicle inspections here for heavy vehicles (Think Ford F350 and up). Those inspections are done by mechanics that are approved by the government. Besides that, it's a free for all as long as the car looks stock.  I asked because I love seeing how engineering differs from country to country. Here in Canada, all designs must be stamped and signed before they can be brought to fruition. (I.E Bridges, structures, Electrical panels, machines, literally everything shy of a wooden table) This can only be done by a professional engineer or professional engineering technologist. Both are protected titles, but the latter having more of a limited scope in what they can stamp. To become a professional engineer, you must complete a 4-5 year bachelors degree in your field of engineering, be part of an engineering order and undergo 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and mandatory continues education. Same story for engineering technologists, but a 3 year associates degree in some form of engineering technology will suffice. If you do not comply, or pretend you're an engineer or technologist, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails and kills someone (I.E Bridge collapse) Off to jail you go for a very long time, your family will be ridiculed on the news, neighbours will surround your home with pitch forks and your dog will disown you.  Same for specialised trades... Example Electricians must undergo 1.5 years of post high school education, 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and hold proper licences. It's for the best, but then we also wonder why we're so short on engineers and tradesmen haha
    • Not currently, I'm at the school where we teach people to build bridges and other fun things that involve making, or breaking things
    • I have a friend who has used Chequered Tuning and CMS. Went to CMS when Chequered had a long wait time which is kind of the norm (for good reason). Was very happy - I'm pretty sure the very simple thing you're asking will be simple.
    • lol that caught up a year quickly! good to see you on the track again, hoping to do it myself one day
    • Nah he was mega organised, the sort of guy that put (almost) every tool back every day, it made trying to work out where things were up to possible.  My shed needs a swedish death clean, I would have >20 part done jobs, its particularly hard to collect all required parts for a job ahead of time when you can't just pop into a shop and grab things
