Thanks birds

So I'll just keep doing what I been doing the past couple of weeks. Chicken breast and broccoli for lunch, Fruits as snacks and oats etc for breakfast.

Dinner what ever I feel like but make sure it's healthy with brown rice, brown pasta or mashed sweet potato.

And instead of running can I just keep pumping phat weight sessions because my ankle is farked from jumping off a cliff so can't run far

Don't be scared of fat though, eat a decent amount of polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats (avocado for example).

If your ankle is screwed, try rowing. Rowing has to be one of the absolute best forms of full body cardio around, and it's super easy to manipulate your stroke rate etc. for a harder or easier session.

Yes. And drink a shit ton of water, nothing but water.

You can try rowing, as Tom suggested, or boxing (my personal recommendation) as a substitute for running. Boxing will have you sweating and even though you hop around a lot on your feet, it doesn't as such put a lot of pressure on your leg joints like running does. Even shadow boxing is very good cardio.

Thanks for all the info!

Birds whats this protein you are currently taking?

I havent been taking any since I started this workout plan but now its gotten more serious I am in the market for some.

From what I have read I need to find one with no carbs

Price has gone up recently and is explained on their page why, but even still in my opinion (and that of many others) the quality and taste of BN protein is well above most competitors.

So far I've personally tasted vanilla, chocolate, and banana flavours and they all taste exactly as you'd expect (nothing f**king retarded and gagworthy). Karl however (Star33) had choc-mint and didn't like the taste...but honestly I wouldn't expect an obscure flavour like that to taste great anyway :P

Just the other day I received my 5kg vanilla and 2kg powdered oats and am as always very happy with my purchase from these guys.

As Troy said, BN WPI. Committed to a 5kg bag, no regrets.

Next time your on the rower nick.. See how fast you can do a 500m sprint.. Now that's a flogging :D

Best time we have here on our record board is 1:26

Obviously varies from machine to machine and resistance settings

After a back session yesterday, I jumped on the rower to finish off. I was stuffed after 4 minutes! Well 3 really but pushed to 4!!! Definitely going to do this more often but I'll change it up and do rows after back, cycle after legs and running at other times. It will be my first real go at any cardio in 9 months of training...

Just smashed a good 2km on the rowing machine.

Then pumped some boxing and then back on the machine for another 800m

But for the 800 I did 100m slow and then 100m as fast as I could etc.

Seriously hard work that machine!

I think my average was 2.10 for 500m

GTR_JOEY: sounds painful and unpleasant! a lot of my friends were rowers in high school and watching them race each other, then collapse and throw up in the spew bucket was enough for me lol

I do see many people using the wrong technique on the rowing machines... pulling with the arms before your finished straightening the legs... like the oly lifts, the arms should be kept straight to maximise your leg power, then only use your arms right at the end to finish the pull... its a leg and lower back exercise!

legs > back > arms... then arms > back > legs

good vid, its a bit too technical for non-rowers but has some helpful tips of you skip through

Yea they're an excellent fitness tool,

We sometimes throw short sprints in our circuits and it sends the heart rate straight through tue roof..

Damn I feel it in my glutes and hamies though.. :D

hehe I don't think you realise who Markos is... Yet :D

lol, thanks. We've shifted our focus mainly to competition and away from general fitness training, so I wont get too involved in the general stuff, but if anyone is interested in competitive powerlifting, i'll gladly help.

Were currently prepairing to send a team of 17 to Slovakia in 5 weeks for the Worlds, hopefully Auatralia can win its first ever Team Medal from a WC

I have decided I'm actually going to start being a bit more serious with going to the gym. Not flaking on a session because I don't feel like it and stuff.

What do you guys reckon is a good number of times to work each muscle group per week, 1 or 2 times? Currently been going with one/ none because I'm lazy...

And Do people still use creatine mono hydrate pre and post sessions these days?

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
