ive increased my food intake by adding another 2 meals a day. Still have not noticed the benefits.

guess im still not eating enough

Use bodyfat increases as a good sign. If you start gaining weight, then you're likely above maintenance which is what you want for breaking plateaus. If you're not gaining weight, you're likely just maintaining or still on a deficit.

beach body? my outlook is no one cares if you have abs if you only weigh 70kg.

body has toned up a bit more, but that could be the change in routine. Went all the way to slopville when I was doing 5x5, but now back to higher reps seems to be coming good again.

Also a marked improvement from my reflux issues. Started drinking those Yakult things each night, can now drink milk again with seemingly no issues. Have pushed it to sitting on the lounge at night with a 2 liter bottle of chocolate milk and just swigging it until bed time. No reflux issues during these times and no issue in the morning. Will try for protein shakes again in the future.

Tried using Zantac or going to a doc for pantoprazole? I've been using it for years, hoping that once I ditch the gut, I should be able to stop taking it.

I seem to have gotten my diet in the sweet spot - losing about .5k a week now.

After working off of power poles and constantly moving all day and wanting to sleep at night I bought a product called pre workout by elemental nutrition I find it works well. Doesn't give me a huge hit like mesomorph but gives me good clean energy for my workout and I can take it in late arvo and still sleep well

C4 and Craze both work aight IMO

Got some White Flood for $10 at GNC (down from 99) cos it's expired sep this year. Might give it a go tonight

Pre workouts decent if you're having one of 'those' days I reckon.

dafaq is 'clean energy'?

on another note, anyone hit the weights on speed or cocaine? I played the best game of soccer on speed one night, so good after the game i was ready for another.

She's been on it for a week now, she is always messaging me about something/wanting reassurance etc so yeah possibly.

Her message 10 minutes ago:

3 months til summer, panicing I havent got my summer body yet...

Thats a challenge for sure.

Takes time to realise that adopting a new way to live is the secret to getting there and staying there. Your friend sounds like they are 'dieting' in the approach to both training and eating. She will fail long term and may even fail short term.

The decision to live differently needs to be embraced. Then changes will be permanent and the body look will be also. Works when the changes are enjoyable and not punishment without reward.

pendlay rows vs conventional bent over rows anyone?

decided to take your advice and skip flat bench the past few days Rev, the right shoulder was feeling better today so did a bit of light bench (cardio day), but it seems to have aggravated it. Since I obviously should give flat bench a miss for a while, what's a good substitute for it? Not having any dramas doing dips or OHP otherwise.

'clean energy' is a term I mainly see being used by supplement selling bros about their new pre workout or "pump enhancer" supplements LOL.

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
