haha all good mate :P I ordered like 3:30 this arvo before I left work anyway, gotta get it done now before I run dry on WPI.

Thank god mate.. otherwise you would have just melted away or have to resort to eating chicken, beef, eggs and weird shit like that.. :D

Shut up :P I know it's just a supplement, but I hate having an eating routine thrown out of rhythm when something isn't available. Lately I've barely been making use of protein shakes and have been relying almost entirely on chicken breast mince (and now Kangaroo mince due to not being able to get chicken) for the bulk of my protein intake.

I just like to make things simple and easier to manage - WPI makes it so much easier.

HAHA!

I love how there are recommendations on servings on a lot of products. Take a scoop morning, lunch, tea......no, just eat.

someone should have told me about the 'stop 1 from your max reps' rule before, the other week i was doing bench and then I got to 7/10 and at the top of 7, i thought "hold on i'm tired maybe ill let it down slowly to rest and then i can push back up" = ended up with holding the bar above my chest, only able to push it up halfway and not high enough to set back on the racks...guy from the next rack came to help me.

hahaha, and you've just encountered pretty much the only use for a spotter ;)

well i was actually benching my lowest weight, but this was at the end of my workout so I kind of did AND didn't take that into account.

Bench doesn't quite work like squats haha. Once you're out of energy, you're finished.

I know that now.......hah....

tonight at the gym i had a bit of a funny moment.

had to do squats, but the squat rack wasnt free so I jumped on the smith. Anyway after the first set, I had real lower back pain. To cut a long story short, after the second and third set, no more pain.

Squats really does cure bad backs..... or maybe better form, not sure.

Just a theory that the experts can correct me on, but I would have thought the fixed bar position of the smith machine would cause all sorts of form issues because the bar should move around to suit your body's movement, not the other way around? Smith machine seems too linearly up and down...

That is correct

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
