Which hand is your dominant hand?

I always get a better pump in my right arm, and my right arm is stronger (dominant arm). The muscles on my right arm also look slightly better (better shape, more chiselled so to say) but my left arm is indeed bigger.

My right arm is dominant.

Both my arms are a very similar circumference (right is like 1cm bigger), but my right lateral tri doesn't look quite as big as the left.

With the coming back from being sick, I usually drop the weight to get out more reps, so i keep it to at least 8 reps for the first 2 sets if I'm doing 4 sets.

Its demoralizing as all f**k, but I don't like only doing 5/6 reps. It feels like I've cheated myself in a way...

Either way coming back from a sickness sucks. You can usually tell when you are coming down with something though, because you inexplicably drop a few reps more than usual

While we're on the topic, what do people usually do when they come back from illness / a week or two off from the gym? Regular weight and just deal with pushing out less reps of it? Or drop the weight to shoot for the regular amount of reps?

Eat... everything I can lay my hands on as soon as appetite comes back... then go to the gym with the intention of taking it easy, ignore that intention, try and lift heavy, get frustrated, leave... go home and eat more lol

Ahahahaha this made me lol. It really makes you appreciate the level you were training at prior to the sickness...puts things in perspective. Don't know how Olympic athletes do it, who are at training at the peak of their body's ability...the drop back from being sick must take weeks/months to get back.

    • Was the failed sensor by any chance this one? Did it just fail or start pissing on itself? I ordered one too, for fuel pressure monitoring, and now I am hesitant to put it in, hehe. Where did you find a brand one?
    • You'd be insane, when a brand new 8HP is ~$4k, and all the work to put a 6 in would cost the same as an 8 and the 8 is a completely established swap. If you think that getting a cheap Falcon box is going to make it a cost effective exercise, then you're not accounting for the extra $10-15k that the task will consume.
    • any further information on this? also interested in putting a zf6 in behind a rb30!
    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
