What do you mean if you were skinny?

In high school you'd have been a rake lol

Now you're a fatter rake?

Lunch time! DING DING DING

EDIT: Oh I agree also, people taking offense to mums is stupid, Kate is kg or two heavier now than she was pre-pregnancy - boobs - and people are on at her about what diet she used

None. I kept eating healthy and I walk every day (until she can get back to running)

It's not rocket surgery people.

I'd agree with that, Girls/Guys different views that is.

I've already got a missus, so I'd honestly say I care more about how other guys perceive me. In that, I'd rather look a bit bigger and more intimidating so people might be less likely to try shit.

You've got a bit more height which makes up for that though, us short guys have to rely on width instead :D

6ft is hardly short lol. But yeah agreed. There is ego to be had from impressing guys; it need not be sexual. However...if you can impress girls, that can be another way to impress guys...or make them hater jealous dream boats!

Anyway, the important thing here is...we deadlift.

lol in year 10 all I did was bicep curls, so I had a mean set of bis exacerbated by a lack of muscle everywhere else. And I quote "you look like you've sewn tennis balls into your arms".

Its definitely personal preference in terms of what size is desirable, but im 6'1 and 90kg with about 12-15% bf I would say, Im not happy with my size yet.

I have been lifting for 2 yrs (the first 6 months were pretty much wasted by not knowing what I was doing) when I started I was like 75kg. If I think back to what I looked like a 80kg I definitely wouldnt be content with that. You still look super skinny at that weight and height.

If I was to cut id probably only be like 85kg or a little less, but my abs are still somewhat visible as I am now and I see no point in cutting when im still trying to get bigger and bit stronger.

Im not really a selfie person sorry birds...

Hahaha if you've got it, flaunt it figgy :P

You look good Birds. What do you squat now and what did you start at?

Cheers dude. My volume sets are around 80-90kg ATG. 1RM after that is usually 110. Also do 5-7 second pause squats after that; between 80-90kg. When I first started ATG squatting, I was pretty tired after a set of 40kg x 10! So much harder than parallel.

In all honesty I'd like my squat 1RM to be higher...just to match my bench and deads...but I'm pretty happy as long as the legs are growing, and they are. Also have a couple of leg niglets that I'd like to sort out with a break from gym and then start proper 1RM training for the squat.

    • Oh, and I forgot that the main point of this topic was to reduce unsprung weight! 
    • So, the wheels in question come with 255 tyres from factory but I guess semi's are usually a bit fatter, maybe that's too much for an 8.5. I'm currently running 245 front and 265 rear with Federal 595's on my 19's. There are no OE square setups so to run square I either buy 2 sets of OE wheels or get an aftermarket set. I was thinking about the OE 17's I have because I already have one set (17x8, 17x8.5) and you can get another set for under $500.  I do have another set of the same 19's (I have a bit of a wheel problem) so I could put together a 19x9 square setup but I'm conscious of the cost of semi's this size. 255 square on the 19's would be pretty cool though.  
    • I might be the only guy to be able to go back to the dyno like:
    • Hopefully more pedal gives more powah! Boo to paint jail, I want dyno comparisons!
    • Sounds good. Might be worth double checking what size rim the tyres you are running want. Generally I'd expect to see a 235 tyre on a 8.5 rim. Any possibility of an easy to source OEM 9.5 wide rim? Also with the thoughts of the square setup, I'd still say wider is going to be better. Say your currently on 235 front and 255 rear. Going to square 255 will be better. But say you could fit, 255 front and 275 rear, that will be better again.  In hypothetical land there might be a world where you go so wide that performance starts to go backwards, but I don't think you'll ever bump into that situation in real life.
