^ only for the people who know nothing...but I'm so tempted to write/stick a note on his ad(s) - please show me the evidence that you can achieve site-specific fat loss with exercise and diet changes?

You're not seeing the subjective definition...spot could refer to shedding fat on the spot at the gym. Also the possibility it refers to one big spot...*draws circle around person*

a real BIG man was struggling at the gym today, could see his motivation wasnt there.

went up to him and simply said "think of your body as a toilet roll. work hard and you'll strip off a square each time. you might not see it, but in time the toilet roll becomes depleted; the layers removed." could see him go up a notch after that.

great session today :)

Love hot days like today in the gym - nothing but the dedicated in there.

Damn straight. I remember last summer rocking up to the gym when the aircon wasn't working and seeing that it was 36 degrees inside. Place was nearly deserted. f**k yeah nobody in my squat rack!

good video this, only watched the first part out of three.

Seems like a real cool kind of guy as well in this.

Ripptoe is boss for techniques. Look into wendlers 531 program for strength gains. It doesn't seem like much, but after 6 months and you're still gaining its rewarding.

If you look for 20kg gains in a month you'll probably end up at the same place, lifting same sort of weights with no progress.

Consistency is key imo.

Agree^

Seems to be that oh-so-human-nature trait of wanting everything as fast as possible and then getting it as slow as possible. If you're not using 1.25kg plates because you think it's a pointless increase, you crazy.

I give no f**ks what it looks like squatting with them on the ends of the bar...I've been making my steady increases of 2.5kg a week without dropping reps to accommodate the new weight. Come at me plateau!

what's everyone's thoughts on Albuterex used with Alcar (Acetyl-L-carnitine)

I've gone up 3% in body fat, since August but still the same muscle mass and if anything have increased my workouts, diet is healthy etc

Feel like I need something exta but dont know what.

thanks

Lol i'm sorry but I can't watch a Kai Greene vid after the whole grapefruit thing. The guy is an odd fella.

Wendlers 5/3/1 program looks alright, pretty common sense based, and it's something I might look at doing down the track. No way am I going from starting strength to that though lol... Same lifts for low reps would drive me insane of boredom.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
