the possible Issue with mixed grip (rare) is a torn bicep.

Having that hand turned out puts the bicep in a kind of flexed position.

Gotta be careful not to bend the arms when doing deads (some people have a habbit close to lockout on really heavy weights to flex that arm a little)

It's a common injury in Strongman comps during the tyre flip events.

as you grab the tyre with both hands, palms up and lift to get it off the ground.

mixed grip has nothing to do with shoulders.

Using straps will probably help you lift more weight, but it just masks a weakness.

masking a weakness leads to injury

It's not that I have trouble with grip it's more the fact I have no powder and there is none at gym and over 100kg hurts the callus on the hands.

who uses powder? :/

your deadlift is improving Troy :D

haha, I should add I haven't managed to lift 170kg by the way!! Most I've locked out is 165kg. Have recently reset weight and doing 4 sets of 5 reps. Currently on 135kg, stepping up 2.5kg each session.

lol riiiiiggghhhhttttt... a freind gave me a big bag of chalk once... never used it

He means Chalk.

and all the cool people use chalk.

Yup and thanks, the voice of reason.

This is true lol.

Gonna go back to a simplified routine as well for a little while, just don't have patience to deal with 5 different exercises per session now that the gym is full of new-year resolution clowns.

Squats, deadlifts, bench press, OHP, pull ups.

Shoulder injury currently.

When I'm fine I'd do 3 sets on wednesday

so it would go

Bench, Rows, OHP, chins

My shoulder injury is due to a lot of things, but a major one is more pressing then pulling.

so now on the mend, I just do bench, then lots of pulling..

I'll add them back in later.

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
