Question from the Infirmary for people with experience in hammy strains.

When looking at my left (good leg) from behind, the main tendon on the outside of the leg keeps twinging and carrying on, sometimes just walking, sometimes bending over to get things.

What's the process for fixing these sorts of strains? It only pulls a little up into the "meat' of the hammy so to speak.

I've been foam rolling it and doing stretches. I skipped gym Monday and may skip tonight as well as I've got some other niggles at the moment and haven't taken a full week off in a while.

yeah I've been finding them quite amusing and informative and have inspired me to really start busting my arse at the gym again instead of being scared to keep going heavier - I hope you do collate it all into a book and make some real money out of it!

Why would you title it 'where do you live', or is that a joke? Do you also have published somewhere the kinds of stuff you do for your cardio routines?

The newsletter that caused them to go viral was this one

http://ptcfrankston.com/doc/newsletter/PTC_Newsletter_IssueNo17.html

After this one got out, originally they were simply for my clients, everyone wanted to get on a mailing list

I cant believe how big it is now, up to # 180, subscribers all over the world, Kenya, Russia, Netherlands, America, Ireland etc

Its not my favourite, but its the one that got people to notice

My favourite is this one

No better place than a Skylines forum for that one, I love it

It's going to much easier to lose the fat with more muscle mass, but it's not like it isn't possible to do without gaining first. Timeframes, training, and goals would all play a part in this decision.

no I probably wouldn't - I've been training and cleaned up my diet for 6 months now, but after reading your newsletters, the thought occurred to me that I might be under eating instead of eating more to build muscle, and therefore increase my BMR.

Possibly even to the point of just eating more meat and having less protein shakes.

It's unfortunate that I can't find anyone in my friend group who is interested in trying the PTC style of training (3 x a week compounds, 2x of cardio with weights), everyone is still dogmatic about the bodypart split thing!

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
