Anyone else have issues with carbon wing blades/high mount wing stands for the R34? Nothing fits right for me (base of mounts are too small, wing blade bows/doesn't bolt up/doesn't sit on rubber mounts). Sorry for the bump

My car has been off the road for a year. It'll be touch and go but I'm hoping so bad that it'll be ready for this event

I think we got until Monday 13th of October

Many people heading in with sau? Looking at entering the 34

Hopefully my car will be ready.. Pretty keen to try this texi thing out

Didn't realise I was speaking with a bunch of pro lifters lol

I hit up my workout B last night (bi's forearms calves hami's squats) and didn't feel it like I did with the workout a/how I usually would if I was to train legs or arms.. I don't know if this is because I usually overtrain these parts or if I didn't train them enough last night. I felt a bit of a burn while training them but that faded as I went to the next exercise. The routine was Biceps; 3x10 RPx10,9,9 Forearms; 3x10 RPx10,8,7 Attempt at extreme bi stretch Calves - attempted this on the 45 degree leg press and seated calve raise with a 10-12 sec negative and didn't get much of a burn Hami's - 2x10 RPx8,6,5 Squats - 3x8 Any suggestions on what I could've done wrong?/what I should do different

Fair enough lol.. Going off the DC style workout. What is the problem with hitting the hami's after arms anyway

Curls before deadlifts? What are you reading..

Haha it's the worst, jumped on some meds ASAP,, hate being sick, ain't nobody got time for that. Yeah the stretches are defiantly something else.. I got some weird looks while doing them haha, I haven't seen anyone train DC in the gym. Defiantly enjoy the pullovers but from what I read I think I should hit the shoulders a little more.. Do you alternate exercises each time you do workout a/b to hit different areas? Or tend to stick on the same routine?, I used to go heavy with dead lifts and went off them for a bit, going to build them back up slowly but wouldn't mind pumping some reps out in the mean time (also the weight entered for deadlifts is the weight put on either side, just so you don't think in too bitch) Yeah good thinking with the sldl.. Each to switch up to something else, I'm defiantly sticking with squats though.. I always used to train dead lifts or squats as a first exercise so this is a good switch up haha Looking forward to the pain tomorrow!

Alrighty, I wanted to train on monday but ended up doing 13 hours at work and coming down with the flu haha, great timing.. Tried out a workout 'a' today, which pretty much followed your one, I want to post it and you can tell me if I am doing it right or if it needs tweaking; WORKOUT A Dumbell Incline Bench Press - 26kg x 11, 28kg x 11, 30kg x 11, 32kg x 9-8-6 (RP) Chest Stretch like this guy - http://www.t-nation.com/img/photos/2009/09-074-training/07.jpg - 24kg could only last for 15 seconds, it kills haha Dumbell Pull Over - 28kg x 12, 28kg x 12, 34kg x 6-6-6 (RP) (From what I have read I think I need to hit more shoulders in this second exercise?) Parallel Bar Dip - 11, 11, 10, 8-5-4 (RP) Pull Up (had to do assisted with 12kgs ) - 9, 9, 9, 6-5-4 (RP) Deadlift - 40kg x 11, 50kg x 10, 50kg x 10 Tri Stretch - http://www.t-nation.com/img/photos/2009/09-074-training/09.jpg 18kg x 20sec Im thinking Workout B would go something like this.. Dumbell Alternating Curl Barbell Reverse Curl Calves (going off what you told me) Stiff Legged Deadlift Squats I have also read that it is 3 days off so (hitting cardio on the off days) Mon - Workout A Wed - Workout B Fri - Workout A Mon - Workout B Wed - Workout A Fri - Workout B Also a rough calculation of the daily intake minus dinner.. according to DC I need another 100 grams of protein haha... SHIT! P - 287.3 C - 131.7 F - 65

Usually the case with lack of results is eating habits.. And that usually means they aren't eating enough. But since you have said you seem to gain a bit more fat, do you mind if I ask where you are at "fat wise"? Can you see any definition on the abdominal region? I'd still say eat more. Perhaps change the ratio of protein/carb/fat... Fasted cardio (low intensity, like a brisk walk) also really helps to limit fat gain. I couldn't say what I am at as a fat percentage.. I can see my top 4 abs when I flex, but nothing to flash haha.. I started off at 105kgs in 2012 with struggling to push 60kg on bench so I had come a decent way, I just want to take it further.. Defiantly will be trying out that walk.. Possibly on an incline too to hit the calves haha. How much cardio would you do on an 'off' day? So for eg tonight I'll train chest shoulders triceps.. Should it go like this; Incline bench 3x11 1x11 (hitting fatigue and taking 10 or so breathes and going at it until I hit 11?) Flat flyes - same reps as bench Chest stretch Military press - same as bench Side lat - same as bench Shoulder stretch Etc etc? Also, how do you train your calves! Mine are staring to grow, I wouldn't mind adding 3 inches on them haha

I don't separate them, I have bought liquid egg whites haha, it makes it easier and taste better IMO then full egg scrambled eggs, but I'll keep that in mind.. So you think I should be eating more? I seem to gain fat more easily then I can gain muscle so I am always a little sceptical of eating too much shit.. I have used bulk nutrients before, maybe I should head back to them... its just there packaging that gave me the shits, all the seals seem to split haha. Your meals sound insane haha, you must be a a unit! Is that considered as a 'cheat day' meal? I am a similar weight to you but and would have no issue eating that much but I swear if I ate like that on a daily basis I would put on a heap of fat, especially if I am following the DC training and hitting up the gym 3 times a week? In regards to the DC training from what I have read and seen from sample workouts - you perform each exercise as a 'warm up' until you hit a fatigue set in which the RP set is completed and you move on to the next exercise?

haha yeah I'm not expecting any miracles. Currently the diet isn't to strict, I am needing to get something together but struggling on how to approach it a little.. breakfast is either scrambled eggs - 2 whole eggs and about 4 egg whites morning snack - greek yoghurt with bircher muesli or a couple brown rice and salmon sushi hand rolls lunch tends to be brown rice grilled chicken breast and salad, or half a chick and sweat potato afternoon snack would be a casein protein shake, hand full of nuts dinner is what ever is being made haha As for supplements, I have amino acid, protein wpi/wpc blend, creatine, bcaa intra workout, pre workout and a casein custard protein. I'll give those links a read, I'm sure I will have a heap of questions.. SO, from what I have seen and read.. each exercise is done as a 'warm up' for 3-4 sets? or is it you keep training it until fatigue and that is when the RP set is performed?

I do more of a body warm up and do a light stretch in between sets.. eg, if I am training chest I'll start with dips and kind stretch it out in between each rep... Is there multiple types of DC training, should I be looking for a particular routine? I have exactly 10 weeks till Im heading to Europe, so I am all in for focus and consistency at the moment haha

Wow, alrighty haha.. seems as though everyone seems to have a different opinion on what to do and what not to do.. Ill take onboard all the comments and adjust my workouts to see if I'm feeling and seeing any changes.. The only reason why I kept this current routine is because I get a pump like I haven't with other routines. I try to spend an hour max in the gym, sometimes it goes a little over that, but I work a 10-12 hour day so its a struggle sometimes. And currently I would say I have been heading to the gym for around 2 years of actually knowing what to do, I have made pretty decent strength gains and dropped 8inches on the waist so I cant complain there, so not to sure if going back to basics is the best thing..

My goal previously was to increase strength, in which I did.. I am heading to europe in July so I guess the goal now is to lose fat but dont want to get skinny.. Currently my routine is as follows, although I tend to either add reps if I feel I can/change or add an exercise if I feel like I need to work something more CHEST Dips - 4 x failure Dumbell Flat Bench - 5 x 8-10 (~34kgs) Dumbell Incline - 4 x 8-10 (~30kgs) Flat (or decline) Flyes - 4 x 12-15 (16kgs) Dumbell Pullovers - 3 x 8-10 (30kgs) Cable Flyes - 3x12-15 (12kgs) 45 degree Calves - 4 x 12-15 (80kgs) Seated Calves - 4 x 12 (~35kgs) BACK Pullups - 4 x failure T Bar Row - 4 x 8-10 (65kgs) Lat Pulldown (behind neck) 4 x 10 (~60kgs) One arm row - 4 x 8-10 (32kgs) Close Grip Lat Pulldown - 4 x 8-10 (~60kgs) Lower Back Raise - 3 x 10 Abs Abs LEGS Squats - 6 x 8-15 (start at 60kg and add weight each set) Leg Press - 4 x 8-10 (160kgs) Leg Extention - 4 x 8-10 (~60kgs) Stiff Leg Deadlift - 4 x 8-10 (35kg each side.. doesn't feel right to go too heavy with this..) 45 degree Calves - 4 x 12-15 (80kgs) Seated Calves - 4 x 12 (~35kgs) SHOULDERS Standing Barbell Press - 5 x 8-10 (~45kg) Seated Dumbell Press - 4 x 8-10 (26kgs) Side Lat Raise - 3 x 8-10 (12kg) Barbell Front Raise - 3 x 8-10 (35kg) - Super Set Seated Dumbbell Rear Delt Row - 3 x 8-10 (22kg) Barbell Shrugs 4 x 6-12 (40kgs) ARMS Barbell Curls - 5 x 8-10 (40kg) Preacher Curls - 4 x 8-10 (35kg) Concentration Curls - 4 x 8-10 (12kg) Skull Crush - 5 x 8-10 (30kg) Cable Overhead Extention - 4 x 8-10 Rope Extention - 3 x 10 I try to get cardio in on the off days.. really depends on work though haha, I am interested to hear what you think of this.. I have never attempted 1 lift for a squat.. Deadlift probably 160-170kg for a couple reps, never had a strong chest but bench I have done around 100-110kgs

Yeah, it's the way it all kind of fits in with my schedule and work.. What kind of routine would you recommend..?

If anyone is heading from the north shore/northern beaches to pick them up let me know

Thought I'd join in on this thread.. Currently 90kgs and the goal is to gain muscle, before going onto a strict diet/new training program. I have just switched up my routine and train; Chest Calves Back Abs Legs Calves Shoulders Abs Arms Bit of a struggle to push out consistent weight and reps as it depends on how big of a day at work I have had.. I aim for 5 sets of the main muscle of that day/what I think needs it the most and work my way from there. I have come across Evogen Stack which I want to give a try.. it includes a pre/intra/post. One of the supps in a carb loader.. does anyone have experience with this? And does anyone have some feedback for Cellucor products? Anyway, thats me for now

..Or not haha, have they landed?

Landing on the 12th of this month I believe

Hey Longz, how is it coming along?

. Will that be the everything that you ordered? Or is there more to come after that?
