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.

If you can carry you shopping your not buying enough food. If you cannot carry your shopping your not lifting enough. And go.

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.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
