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.

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • 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!
