Theoretically, 2.5kg each week is going to be over 60kg in 6 months. Assuming he can pull off the increase each week, that'll be 200kg for reps midway during this year...

P.S. catching you in deads Troy. I pulled 150 the other day, after squats and deads. I reckon fresh I might give you a run :P

Because Birds

This.

I have been considering putting squats on my push day...where they technically belong...to give deads a bit more potential. Problem is, after all the chest exercises on push day, I'm utterly sapped of energy.

Truth be told, I added deads and squats to my routine at the same time, so always just did them one after the other on the same day. There's interference, but I'm still progressing in both exercises, so maybe when I plateau or get sick of fainting I'll swap one over.

My deadlift is currently at 140kg for 5 reps.

Not great, but not doing too bad either.

Its going up steadily with your 5x5 program

Are bench and squats moving at a similar pace?

on another note, i have decided i enjoy doing back workouts the most. Nothing better than rows, deadlifts and weighted chins

Bench is being stubborn, but I'm incorporating heavy negatives on the smith machine to work through my sticking point.

Squats are slowing in progression, sitting on 92.5kg full depth, will probably try for 95 tonight.

Don't forget the forearm pump from back workouts too Troy!

so my Mrs bought me an Inzer lever belt, Tshirt and knee wraps for Christmas... Thanks to Markos! lol

squatted with the belt once before I left for Vic Harbour with a bunch of mates for 2 weeks of sun, beer, food, beer, sand and... beer

got back yesterday, hit the gym today... oh dear..

one week off is great every few months... two weeks off? not so much

What gym Nick? 2 weeks is ok a couple times a year, but its the 2 weeks Plus the beer that does it...

Not enjoying pasta of late, feel so blah afterwards.....

Big workout tomorrow; bribing my boys to behave in the small kids room with a reward of a cinema night - haven't gone in there yet with the kids in tow.

And my gym has chalk now...wtf Genesis...

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
