did front squats today - with the clean grip I was doing it wrong cause it was loading up my wrists, was much more manageable with arms crossed, but I think I might have had the bar sitting too far forward on the delts. Did manage to get 5x100 out though.

Wow that's alright!

I'm assuming that's 55% of your 1RM, which you'd have a loose idea of.

I like my exercise to be very simple so to me that's a bit too involved.

I'm also not keen on splits where if you miss one day for whatever reason you miss that work for a week - but I realise splitting allows greater targeting and emphasis which is great for those with a specific goal.

I'd have a thought a full body workout x times a week would be fine for you Leesh, as you seem to want general fitness, well being, and some nice aesthetics. OR are you now looking to be a fitness model or something?

Mitch beat me too it, just times anything you need by the percentage number with a decimal in front of it.

That chick is too muscular IMO, but if that's your goal then a split routine will likely be a must, as will excellent diet.

You can do it!

Thats your speed day and your meant to be moving the weight explosively to train the muscle fibres and neural system, its not to try and build muscle.

Do a bit of background reading on louie simmons westside method and itll help explain the ideas behind each day

    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
    • Hey all, Noticed I have a hole on top of which im guessing is my transfer case/gearbox. I can see it from the middle of my firewall looking down. S1 R33 gtr Any advice or can pinpoint what this is/caused this?
