Nice setup.

I weighed myself this morning for the first time in like 2mths, a I'd switched to slightly lower weigtht but sets of 10, up from 8, and still with 90-120sec breaks. Cut total workout time down to 35-40mins where possible.

84kg, prior to that I was usually 87+ in the mornings.

Have also been a bit under the weather during this period also, but interesting to see that I can still drop weight. I had wanted to shed a couple kgs specifically in the mid section, which is looking better, but was unsure if my metabolism would allow it now that I'm a bit older. I did adjust eating a little too, not too much less volume, but a bit cleaner.

Nothing new or exciting there, I just found that surprising as it's the most weight I've lost in a while.

When I need to get under 80kg for our work comp I switch from Pepsi to Pepsi Max in my rum a week out.

Works a treat.

Talking about dropping weight, I'm 2.5 weeks out from 4rm test at work for deads and squat.

I'm going for 4 x 170 deads and 140 for squats (slow progress).

Will be fun.

awesome home gym there mate

Yeah I think he was a bit worried that's why he checked with the ref straight away. The boys from my gym competing tomorrow, if there's any vids I'll chuck them up. Owner from my gym came second in bench already and the other guys should do well

Recently it's been taking ~8 business days to get my BN orders lately, usually it's only about 4. Anyone else experience this?

Yeah they've posted on fb due to a few new product lines including, new thermowhey flavours and N03X they've been pretty under the pump, should slow down once the novelty of N03X wears off.

Sorry BN PR

Frikken bench spotters...no matter how much you tell some people to stay away from the bar until I've dropped the bar on myself and am screaming out for help...they still rush in to save the day at the first sign of a struggle.

If I wanted a bro rep I would have let you help me from the get go :/

I'm a good spotter!

You know you have calluses when you peel one off to find another one beneath it, and a suspected one beneath that too.

dungeon bars are the most callus causing shit I've ever come across lol, my calluses rip and bleed when I do deadlifts

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
