hahaha dont think i could afford travel costs for him to tour NSW :P

good on him, if i could do something like that as a second job to earn more coin i would. But i'll assume pasty skinny white boys with no dance skills isnt in high demand for hens parties :P

Lol no partner

Have got a few compliments :turned:

Only really like this one chick who isnt into me so that sucks...

Guess I'm in the same boat, started gym to impress but now its like I'm just doing it because I have nothing better to do... Motivation really long gone, struggle town atm :/

I just
I just really want to take a whole loaf of bread, smear each piece with peanut butter and eat the whole loaf.
Repeat with 2 more loaves. :rant:

lol so do it man, nobody is going to give 2 shits. You will work it off the next session anyway, if you have no mad goals or aren't competing, don't punish yourself, it should be a fun thing to do, not a chore.

Yeh but was just to prove a point amongst friends, 6-pack is do-able without cardio. I def wouldn't work off 6000+ cals in the next session haha.

Yeah I did no cardio either

I can also confirm Birds like to take off his clothes. Gets unsuspectingly posted on my FB newsfeed

After stalling on nearly everything I have decided to cut away the Strong Lifts 5 x 5, doing cardio/cross fit 3 or 4 times a week (mandatory at work) and trying to squat 3 times a week drained me, my age (48) is my excuse and I'm sticking to it, LOL.

I have now gone back to my old routine with some minor changes.

All major exercises have 4 to 5 warm up sets from 10 down to 2 reps before working weight.

Current weights in kg follow sets and reps ( I have deloaded about 10%)

Sessions are all straight after work.

Critique at your leisure.

Monday

Bench 5 x 5 107.5

Inc DB 4 X 10 35

Dips 3 x 10 20

X overs 3 x 10 27.5

Tuesday

Clean 5 x 3 82.5

Shoulder Press 5 x 10 47.5

Superset of:

DB curls 3 x 15 12.5

Rope Ext 3 x 15 50

Wednesday off

Thursday

Dead 5 x 5 125 (Rubbish but working up)

Over Grasp Heaves 4 x Max BW

Arched Close Grip Heaves 4 x Max (I use the handle off the seated row over the ladder section of the heave beam)

Lat pull down 4 x 10 50 (used for the stretch)

1 Arm Row 4 x 10 35

Friday

Squat 5 x 5 107.5 (Rubbish but working up)

BB Lunge 3 x 10 40

SLDL 3 X 10 60

Superset of:

Ezy Curl 3 x 15 25 (without bar weight)

Skull Crushers 3 x 15 32.5

Saturday and Sunday consists of family stuff, cake, booze and enjoy life to the fullest.

My goal is to up my weights and see how I go.

All exercises are full range of motion (ATG and all that other correct form stuff, I am overly strict on this due to previous injuries, from me being a stupid dick).

One off the guys at work who does powerlifting has tried to get me on the 5 3 1 routine but it has to much math and shit, all I do on mine is up it 2.5 kg if I get all sets and reps.

If I stall again I will just deload on that exercise or do 5 x 3 for the main lifts and see how it goes.

Just got off my human growth cycle run whilst in Thailand. Had put on 5 kgs, ate 6000 calories, looked leaner and stronger. Now that I'm back from my honeymoon it's time to start a round of sust/deca combined with anavar. f**k supplements I say :)

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
