There's a pin-loaded seated leg press machine thingy I've used a couple of times, but unfortunately even on the max weight setting I still manage sets of 12+ reps lol

I like doing single-leg incline press with ~100kg loaded up after whatever my main leg exercise was (squats or proper leg press).

Fortunately for me, our leg presses use the old thin holed 25kg plates, which only fit on that and the smith machine. So our plates stay in the area or on the leg press itself...usually find 8 plates already on there thanks to a lazy individual.

not sure if it's been posted yet but:

guy faints squatting 180kg (vid inside link)

Think we've all seen this before...

Honestly, any gym where guys are trying to squat probably 2x or more of their body weight on a front squat is going to have the potential for failure, nothing special about it being in Markos gym, other than if it was a commercial gym it would've been 120kg instead.


When I thought I'd badly done my back I fully dropped the bar on the safeties hard core, there was just no video.

Sometimes we will fail.

You know what else helps squats and deads?

I started a new thread on Marty and put up his NEW video after I started getting calls from news networks.

This is going to get bigger.

Funny how nobody wants to know about his 290kg deadlift but theyre all over a missed front squat lol

I'm surprised you're not getting told off for making your lifters do unsafe things like squats LOL

This..

Imagine that bloke from L33sh's Gym reaction if someone tried that at his gym lol He would of had a coronary

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
