:yes:

well nismo?

so I went down to the PTC yesterday... cool little gym and friendly bunch of people, thanks Markos!

I took it relatively easy as I've never been to a PL comp before and didn't want to embarrass myself... so definitely some more in my squat, and heap more left in the deadlift... totally underestimated how nice the proper DL bar is to use and could've easily gone 200+... maybe next time;)

Squat > 160kg

Bench > 110kg (failed @ 115kg)

Deadlift > 190kg (should've opened with this)

not a bad effort considering I don't train for power lifting... but some super strong guys down there, makes for a humbling experience!

Not sure how to embed video from FB here? can't link due to privacy settings on my FB page

Nick did really well, his only issue was weight selection. His last deadlift of 190kg should have been his opener, I think Nick could have pulled 210kg+

This was a novice comp with mostly first timers, none of the 9 lifters I have going to Worlds lifted, theyre really strong

Nick also displayed excellent technique on all the lifts

As far as equipment goes, nothing better than what we have exists, we have the highest standard available anywhere in the world

The bar they guys benched and squatted with costs $2000, the calibrated plates are $14kg

This is important as we send lifters to Worlds.......no surprises when we get there

Tom, the best gym in the ACT is Elite Physique

They hold numerous comps there. Next one is the GPC National Push/Pull, a bench and dead only comp

This event will be held on the same day in VIC, NSW, ACT, WA, QLD, NT, November 18.

South Australians are coming to Vic to compete this year

Nick missed out on the competitors meeting, I explained we judge hard

Even though its a novice comp, we judge it like a Worlds, no second chances or whoopsies

One guy had his 175kg bench press red lighted because he put the bar back before the rack call

Massive difference between gym lifts and comp lifts

Nick now has official comp lifts to judge his progress by

If any of you guys feel like helping out some of the NSW peeps that would be great.

They have just started a thread for all of them to get healthy.

Seems to be a lack of good info other then exercise.

Drop in and give some tips if you have some free time

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
