And this is fking cool even if it is expensive and wankerish http://www.mybottleshop.com.au/product/johnnie-walker-porsche-cube/

Fk you Nick. You are the worst influence on my bank account. FYI Aldi liquor has it for $400 so DMs retail is a tad inflated for the offer, given they are usually the cheapest at retail price. Still a good price though. Also Hamish...I've given my dad about 6-7 bottles of Johnny green over the years and drank a couple myself. Really hating myself for not just KEEPING THEM when people are offering them for this kind of money (not that they're necessarily getting sales at these prices). http://www.oldrichmondcellars.com/spirits/blended-whiskey/johnnie-walker-green-15yr-1litre/

Greg I really feel like posting this in your spare parts thread Take Greg's parts, but beware...they carry a terrible curse...but they come with free postage...the postage is also cursed...but you get your choice of carrier...the carriers do not offer postal insurance............that's bad...

Just missed out on the 300 club, that's gotta hurt! Haha

Got a tread depth reading? How old are they time wise? Street driven or tracked? If so, how many track days?

As an aside to this, when I was training low weight bench for a couple weeks I got my 60kg reps up to about 27-28 and my 1RM was probably around 115, however during my strongest 1RM period (122.5kg), when I had mostly been focusing on low rep sets, I gave the 60kg challenge a shot and only completed around 23 reps.

That could certainly explain my observations, and also why 1RM calculators are limited to a 10 rep input...though I always thought that was because the algebraic equations would blow out reliability with any number higher than 10. Probably also explains why my <10 rep sets are affected by my intensity during a prior 1RM, yet I always have room in the tank for the high volume weights. Would like to know the physiology behind it. Slow vs fast twitch fibers being used for one and not the other? Can we therefore assume that if these different "strengths" operate independantly of one another, I could train both rep ranges in the one session (as I'm doing now) without them negatively impacting each other? Creating a rounded combination of strength and endurance?

I see what you did there

Martin can have his ear infection sundae This is my diet

You like the people in Final Destination, only with cars So maybe call it No Destination given you never actually make it there lol

I'm a bit sleight at the moment, weighing in at 81.5kg lastnight, so they were 98% bodyweight Surprisingly my 1RM isn't going up, despite consistently adding a rep or two to the 80kg volume each session. Usually I can bounce one off the other (1RM vs volume) and vice versa. With certainty in bench, I know that if I can get out 7-8 reps of 100 then I can do a single of 120 etc. Squats seems to be a different ball game! A bit of empirical theory; I suspect that in the high volume squats I have more time during the set to gradually recruit each muscle in the chain, which could explain my second wind after 10 reps. Comparatively, a 1RM being a single rep, if you don't have everything doing it's part straight up, you won't be lifting to your potential. That and the lower weight squats are probably more controlled? Combination of lots of factors probably.

Not impressed Martin, keep it coming

uwotm8 Are you saying you're not indomie

I bought that cous cous fgt Rendang, it's f**kin tasty

New squat PB of 80kg x 20 reps, all ass to ground and high bar. Up 5 reps from 15 last session. WOW, simply one of the most intense pieces of exercise I have ever done. It is 99% a mental battle, standing there with the bar across your traps, the weight feeling heavier and heavier as time goes by, struggling to catch your breath and wanting to throw in the towel after every rep - I wanted to stop at 10 but had this insane drive to keep going and going. Racking it after 20 I promptly collapsed to the ground because my legs couldn't hold me up anymore lol. Took longer to catch my breath after that than my old 3km HIIT sprints used to. So yes, painful and energy sapping as all hell, but so damn rewarding. Not looking forward to stairs and toilet seats tomorrow.

Congrats on 77.5kg squat New pb!

Jono what are you studying mate, an arts degree?!? Try a psychology major

Mohsen makes the worst decisions of anyone I know But knows how to effectively use a semi colon I don't get this world

Haven't tried these but I'd be interested in giving it a go. Used to do superman push-ups fairly easily so these shouldn't be comparatively as hard? Boz have you tried captains chair leg raises as opposed to hanging?

A few of my lightning pics from lastnight

As a biker I can't stand how arrogant, self righteous and hypocritical so many bikers can be. The worst are the ones who engage in road rage with cars thinking they can come out of that battle on top. CSB warning. I remember when I was driving Alvin's 34 and I had a motorbike swerve into my lane and put on the brakes hard, which made me slam on mine, then he changed lanes as I did and put the brakes on hard again; this time his rear tyre connecting with my front bar (put a rubber mark on front bar that polished out easily enough) and he looks back at me like I'm the one driving like a moron. He then slows down to let me pass and starts tailgating me really close with his high beam on. I'm loling cause the dick head is playing traffic wars with 1.5 tonnes of metal...I tapped the brakes a couple of times to scare him away and he quickly got the hint that he would end up second best if he kept it up. He got the bird when I turned off, cause that's how you finish off a situation like that.

You'll have to explain this one more clearly for me, as I'm not up to date with Maree

Yeah they do that Had some f**k heads come up quickly behind me on the west gate freeway the other day, obviously on the way back from the GP. They weaved in front of me and then one (on L plates) slows down to 60km/h in front of me talking to his/her mate in the lane next to us, then I change lanes to move around them and the biker looks at me like I've done something wrong lol? Then does the shittiest wheelie I've ever seen. f**k heads give the rest of us a bad name. Can only hope they take just themselves when they inevitably end up a road trauma statistic.

Or drive his Pulsar for even less effort and money

Roleplaying gift for the wife, Terry?
