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

All I get from this talk is negative crap, if your trying to say if I think I'll take supps and shit I'll get big. Your far from it.

Some positive...

Supplementing your diet with some nutrients you need can help if you don't have time to prepare food. I like protein powder shakes because they are fast to make. So they have their place as a food source and are good value for that.

Taking so called 'pretend' steroids ie: test boosters is a game of fools however.

Things sold as ZMA and others are just fancy zinc tablets. You need more zinc in your diet if you train. Cenovis do a $6 bottle of 100 tablets from coles if you need some (thats the brand I buy). There is a known ratio of B6 and Magnesium even the cenovis stuff has.

I dont bother and nor want to go near steroids, test boost and hormones. Like you said "time to prepare food" its just not that its also being off site no fridges, no eating schedule guaranteed.

Only things i take are protein, Bcaa, Multi and a fish oil tab.

Fair enough, but from outside the box only just coming in seems a little different :)

Yup going hard, lost 13kg in 7 months, Still a little away from proving a non believer but will get there..

I usually do 1 scoop to 600ml water. Watermelon is good, I'm using blue raspberry which is nice as well. I don't notice any diffrerence with the xtend but I just drink it because I like the taste lawl, so usually lasts me about 6 months.

Currently using Cenovis Vitamin C and Nature's Own Vitamin D (I like chewable stuff). But I went to Coles today and on your advice was about to purchase some Cenovis Zinc (they have a "buy 2 Cenovis, get the 3rd free" offer on at the moment)...but I got sucked into their men's multi which seems to contain the same amount of Zinc/B6 plus a lot of other shit. Here's hoping it doesn't give me headaches like the last multi I tried.

My concern with multis in the past has been their minimal content of each vitamin/mineral, but these are quite large pills (guessing because of the fish oil) and the content was on par with a lot of the Cenovis standalone products.

trouble is that you want to take a dose during the day / breakfast or pre workout and then at night before bed.

      spot the stagea

      Oh right, I didn't realise it was your car. Please do! Makes me feel better about mine. I also have a big scrape on the front left bumper where someone presumably used the wall to guide the car into a parking spot  But somehow all the funds go towards mechanical things and the cosmetics stay forever unfinished... Interesting, I don't think I have seen it before. But after seeing @PranK's rusty roofline on the BMW I'd probably leave it alone. Wouldn't want water to get in there.

      Could it really happen......

      Infiniti US are teasing a manual Q50 as a way to refresh a (very old) model. https://torquecafe.com/manual-performance-sedans-arent-dead-yet/ Can't be too technically difficult given the Z has the same motor with a manual gearbox......here's hoping there is a JDM version we can import here, that would save me a world of headaches

      It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?
