No Crust Racing

FARK! Dat volume! Go for it you beast.

Had one of those sessions tonight where everything feels a bit heavier. Probably because I was hungry. Good to know I could thug it out and get through it though. That's the sort of thing I mean when I say I like consolidate and know that on my bad days I can still do the same numbers before I increase. I may look for a small increase on some things towards the end of the week. Having a doubt period too where I start to wonder why I'm doing this

Well maybe not after watching the crash vids... My car is still on the original shell and I have no plans to change that Hats off though, great driving = great times. Keep at it.

My new plan is to get my car running and then let John drive it and claim the lap time as my own... Easiest time I'll ever cut from a PB

I've seen this car a few times at various events and I am absolutely astounded/impressed at your Winton time. I'm not saying the car isn't well sorted, but I am definitely saying that is a crazy fast time for a car with the power this has. Which is a very good indicator of how good your driving is. Clearly all that track time has payed off and I am going about my car the entirely wrong way! Great build thread dude. I'll come and say hi the next time I see you at Winton/DECA.

Brokeback Birds.

f**king LOL

Hahah, love it. Good to see you on board.

Yeah nice one Jam... Anyway, I had a steak for lunch. AWWWWW YIS

Oh you don't have to ride it out of here, you can circle around the yard on it for a while

This times eleventy.

Like sands through the hourglass? When TTT has finished riding it, I'll grab the llama for you

And THAT'S why I wouldn't have said that Birds lol Walked into that one.

Welcome to every mans life lol

That's the best kind FIG Leesh: Fair enough

All that and the part you focused on was about the build thread. And what is, the 50s were a girl can't make her own choice? My 2 cents, don't do one, you;re not interested in it so it won't serve you any benefit. Put your time into things that have a positive impact for you. Like 33% bench improvements!

As I said, up to you, if you look at mine there has been weeks of the same numbers but I also talk about physio visits, walking/running at some points, etc etc just so I have a record. So you've increased your bench by 33% and that makes you unhappy? So at 57kg you were benching 52% of your BW, and are now benching 71% of your BW at 56kg, so you got lighter AND stronger... Tough crowd... Like I said, I think some of your bigger hurdles are up stairs girlfriend *snaps fingers* but I don't know you and it's not my place to make judgment calls so take all my ramblings with a grain of salt (or some cheese and crackers!).

Yeah easy for me to say when I could go see Matt on the way home from work so do the PTC one when convenient, maybe when next in Melbs? You and le Birds could head out and see Markos for some confidence crushing tuition. (I'm joking Markos relax). Start a build thread only if you want one, otherwise it'll be just another annoyance, I'm pretty verbose and I like to dataz so being able to look back and go lol 40kg squat, or hopefully in another year lol 100kg squat is good for me.

Sorry wasn't implying that this was a fad for you, just saying for me it's a lifestyle thing, if it is for you too then you will always be fine I think I mentioned before, 8mths is not much, and I know that sounds harsh, but it;s been 8mths of decent effort not 8mths of balls (ovaries to the wayy) out and out 110% dedication to strength gains. Whcih is completely fine, I personally don't train that way so it would be remiss of me to give you a hard time. Just saying that realistically you have a ways to go (which is why I like build threads). I looked back on my build thread yesterday to see where I started out when I began project squat dodger/no more curling like a bro. It's been good so far, squatting 3 times a week, haven't curled in ages, getting stronger across the board. Only small gains, but gains all the same. Keep at it and if you can get into a PTC and do a session or two, that was a ral turning point for me, so much so that I consider myself having only been going at it since that time, the time before that was just treading water.

Well I see it a bit differently. My "plan" is to just keep plugging away getting stronger over time until such point as I either get injured or too old to maintain that weight then I'll gradually reduce the weight but continue exercising, MY point being I do not feel like I'll ever "get" to anywhere in particular, rather than I'll be exercising for most of my life because I enjoy it, it makes me feel good, look decent, helps me lift heavy things, work on the car, etc. For me it's not a process with one goal in mind, it's a life style choice. I've taken time off before, well over a year to let things heal up, persue other interests for a while etc and that will probably happen again, but ultimately I always see myself doing some form of exercise. Foir you, well you have some kind of look in mind obviously so you will be "done" when you get there and then you need to maintain it. How long will that take? That's determined by your commitment and determination. About twice the length from the starting point to about the middle... EDIT: As for being disillusioned, when I hit a mental wall, I change something. Add weight, new exercise, move exercise around, buy a new gym shirt, take a full week off (you should not overlook the need to do this every now and then anyway). Then come back refreshed.

Well it's good to have goals, but as was said plenty of girls would be happy to have your physique Leesh, I get the impression some of your battles are fought mentally rather than physically. Girls tend to have a shitful self image, you may not, I'm just generalising. Keep plugging away, you'll get stronger and in the process will have that more defined/lean/muscle look. It just takes time. FIGJAM: Better chance getting them of Birds I'd say.

Pretty sure I posted a pic of a llama for him too, after he'd made his grand announcement that he was leaving.

He did and rode out on the drama llama. I'm sure he secretly lurks though. Dodgy bastard.

Still not enough squatting to please TTT

lol the sphincter of the universes Wah, can't say T.urkey?
