underhand grip doing rows puts the wrists in a bent back position.

and using a straight bar means they are bent back and twisted out. Then from there they get pulled upwards by the arms, and downwards by gravity.

Use double overhand grip.

either thumb under or over to see what works best.

cheers, makes sense as to what the issue could be.

Bought commercial cable cross over for $100, a second corner cross over unit for a friend of mine for $180, laying down back row for $90, commercial peck deck for $20 (that's right, $20) and a commercial ab crunch machine for a friend for $20. If I had more space, or had known that it was going to be that cheap, would have organised some storage space and bought a lot more. couldn't believe the prices. will post pics tomorrow once I have it either in the work bay or hopefully at home. the $100 is missing the cables that go with it, so will have to source them somewhere, but that's easy enough.

Having seen your dumbell racks I'm guessing you'll be charging membership fees for your garage soon...

I wish I had seen this auction before I bought all my gear. Would have saved thousands

Full commercial power rack went for $180. It was ridiculous.

Worst marketed auction ever. I only saw it on gumtree and decided to pop in see what was there. There were about 30 people there, and they were all looking to privately buy equipment for their homes.

A lot of the gear was very badly presented as well, covered in dust and some of it in mould, with scratches here and there, but it was still fully functional.

I will post pics by end of the week once I get it all home and cleaned up and assembled.

I think I get away with no wrist issues due to using bitch gloves that wrap around and support the wrist a little.

Just buy a proper pair of wrist wraps from the likes of Inzer or Titan and wrap them properly before a set.

If there is still pain you might need some fascia release or treatment on the muscles or tendons.

finally, a pic appears.

going to have to move the tv cabinet thingy and fan out and put the pec dec there and will wall mount the tv above the dumbbell rack.

have sold the calgym chest press, and am now already a few hundred ahead of what I paid for all the gear. wish I had bought more....

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
