That's a good thread. Biggest agreement is keeping the routine 'basic and simple'. Srsly I have so many people saying do this, do that, should be adding these exercises etc. Honestly if I listened to everyone I'd be doing 100 different exercises a week.

The best part of that thread is in someone's signature, a quote taken from Alan Aragon:

“The fitness & nutrition world is a breeding ground for obsessive-compulsive behaviour. The irony is that many things people worry about simply have no impact on results either way, and therefore aren’t worth an ounce of concern.”

Exactly find what you want and stick to it, dont have to listen to every person thats there.

Also what weight bars are at your gyms? Are they just the 20kg weight or do they cheap out for the 15kg types?

Thank you for proving my point there, Count Calorie...

:P

Don't have much choice lol (while the weather is warm at least)...I'll either over eat and be unhappy, or drastically under eat which is even worse for my health.

Does anyone bother with pre work out boosters? Such as bsn no xplode, MP assulat, Jack3d ect.

I would advise against it. I takem them still and I dont even get the effect from them anymore, it's become a bad habit. I've actually given them to the missus so I can take a break, serious lol.

You might count calories, but you're terrible at counting years...

bahahaha yeah that'll keep happening for a couple more weeks I think....at least I haven't written 2012 when I'm dating things yet.

Yer can be addictve, ive heard of cases of that with jack3d. I may use one a week or two weeks. Thinking of getting C4 to try just todo so. I looked at this Volative but its Us only atm.

Pretty certain they are all 20kg. Haven't used a 15kg one yet!

good questions

Just want to keep in shape that's about all.

Maybe put a bit more muscle on.

You will become more picky as you go ;) You cannot simply 'keep in shape' into Mordor >.> Sense this makes none but you get my point.

I've drunk alcohol on 4 occasions this year, last one was 22nd of October. lol

I have being drunk twice last year. 21/9 for and 31/12. Used to have 4 coupons to use up a year.

Knowing after a gym sesh in 35 degrees that the only way you can get home is on a motorbike:

But once you're on after 20 minutes of procrastinating and the wind is blowing through your jacket at 100km/h:

lol Charlie, I ride a pushbike to the gym...I can't even go fast enough to get the cool breeze...not to mention it's a full-downhill bike, so takes a buttload of effort to get anywhere on :(

Ouch. Ride back wearing shorts only? Eh downhill I do not envy you at all. Even a road pushy with suspension is a bitch!

Hard part about the bike is getting your pants and jacket on over sweaty skin. Gets stuck and you have to fight while exhausted >.<

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
