Also Dan...do a pinch test with your stomach skin/fat...it's the cheapest and easiest way to see if you're gaining or losing fat. It's not accurate, but it's better than looking in the mirror and it doesn't need to be accurate. Good biofeedback.

This is basically how I control how much junk food I can afford to eat or need to cut back on to sit around my happy 10%

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

Im going to say there isn't too much muscle mass gained there. but thats only my opinion

Interesting, I'd always thought that squatters got bums. What are you basing this off? Just personal experience? A study?

Glutes, hamstrings and quads. They make your butt bigger.

This is what I thought, but maybe I just want that to be the case because I'm now J-Lo...

Why can't you be more like Troy and send money without all these legitimate questions.

I'll be sending a sample of BN chocolate as it's one of the most commonly purchased proteins/flavours on here and it's the only one I've got. I based the cost on only sending in one sample. I assume $50 or whatever it costs will only cover one sample.

If it doesn't go ahead or there are any indiscrepancies, I'll just refund your monies through PayPal.

OK I'm on board.

I hear people talk about this but what's the best way to go about it?

If the chocolate tests positively, then no real reason to do any other flavour. Good enough indicator that they're legit.

Agreed, I'm using the WPC but if they are right about the WPI then I'll assume they are legit.

I'm gonna assume it's his mum's, lol.

Also again I don't see the point in testing multiple products. Test 1 (choc WPI) - if it's pretty well spot on what the label claims for protein content, then we should be confident all their products will also meet their label claims.

This is amusing for 2 reasons.

1) The subject and message content was not mum appropriate.

2) 16yr old using mums account... lol

He's not legally allowed to have his own paypal account.

(I realise a 16yr old totally can have one, shaddup :P)

I was basing it off the fact that even if your muscles have grown, the reason you are larger is because the fat hasn't disppeared. unless youve grown ridiculous amounts of muscle.

At 10% bodyfat women start to get problems, their periods stop etc, or become very infrequent. They start to look manly in the face. Most mistake that for being on gear.

I'm talking about a true 10% on a dexa scan, not a broscience one

11 in women in about a 5 in men I think?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSP male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSP reducing bush?

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
