the PCYC has a court upstairs so I'll go shoot hoops for 15mins to warm up... then squaaaats;)

put a hoop up recently... on the front of the car port... haven't had a hoop since I was living at home many moons ago... daylight savings is awesome, get home from work and have enough daylight to shoot around

having a basketball game the day after a powerlifting comp doesn't work particularly well... feels like your in slow motion... epic lower back pump

If you can carry you shopping your not buying enough food. If you cannot carry your shopping your not lifting enough. And go.

Bought myself a close grip handle for T-bar rows since the one my gym has for the seated row is a ghey piece of shit without a recession to sit the bar in between the handles. Turned up yesterday (I think it was overnight delivery lol). f**k I love T-bar rows, back is really feeling it all the way through my traps and lats right now.

One of the many great purchases out there to take to the gym with me. For $35 it's not bad.

I find T bar rows the best back exercise for the mid back... especially with the little v handle... better than barbell rows IMHO

I always use the smaller 10kg plates for this... makes for more loading/unloading but you can get a better ROM as the bigger plates hit you in the chest before you can really get your elbows up and back

you can also use that handle on the pull up bar... lean back a bit and pull your chest up the the handle etc

I can get a better contraction with my hands in that position... I feel it works the rhomboids better... as long as your not too upright and using lots of body english to swing the weight up (then it becomes a half shrug movement)

I also like Pendlay rows and one arm dumbbell rows... The Pendlay's I like to go heavy and not too strict on form... T bar and dumbbell rows done strictly with a pause at the top

barbell rows into my stomach, navel region... T bar rows into my sternum area

reverse flyes for rear delts... powercleans for traps... pull ups for lats... Deadlifts for all of it

love training back lol

Ok so i'm going to try Rippetoe's starting strength for the first time tonight. I'll be working at it for 6-8 weeks over this summer as I now have down time to sleep and eat a bit better now that my CIT course is finished.

Lets see what sort of strength gains I can make...

Got Milk?

PS - there isn't enough deadlifting in his program...

I know he goes on about it needing more recovery time etc etc.

But I got stuck on a shit weight for a long time doing it his way.

added more volume for deadlifts and shot up many kilos for it.

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
