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.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
