I recall looking into this when it last came up. Came across a "story" written by a guy who consumed what he feared to be a large amount (I think it was like ~400g/day), and when he spoke to his doc about it he was advised it was high but acceptable, for his size (he was like 200lbs built I think). The article then went on to explain how your body handles excess mercury etc which was pretty interesting

I do recall a few years ago of some athlete who ate a lot of tuna and having higher than norm mercury levels. I say it would have to be an isolated case. Well hoping anyways... I eat the best " John west " lol

Not me, I eat shitty Coles brand tuna and it tastes like ass to be honest. Meh, I eat tuna for the brotein, not the taste.

Well looks like I'll stick with my "2 cans of tuna a day routine" then haha :)

The trick is to time your purchase of tuna for specials...JW/Greenseas usually $1 a can at either woolies or Coles.

Or buy 4 pack of JW/Greenseas, which works out 1.50/can.

Yep, saw that come on sale right after I purchased 24 cans of Coles tuna. FML.

Hahahaha bad mistake

I gave the Coles tuna a go the other day, lemon and pepper

It tasted like a lemon meringue, disgusting

Yep, worse even was that I threw the receipt in the bin and couldn't exchange them for the JW ones :(

I made that mistake once, so I jsut stick to springwater now. There's an old saying about not being able to polish a turd..... hahaha

Give the JW or Greenseas lemon and pepper a go, it's much better. Hot chilli is good too but my digestive system didn't agree so no more :(

Will do mate, will keep an eye out and stock up hard when they're on sale again :cheers:

Hey guise - I don't have a build thread but I did a few measurements last night after 3+ months of solid gym work. I don't want to sound like I'm tooting my own horn too much, but I was really excited by the results; and most of my work in the gym has solely been attributed to information I've extracted from the health+wellbeing section on these forums. Much love brah's. :wub:

I started my first day weighing in at 76kg's, 174cm tall, 17.8%bf, thin, pasty, scrawny and generally weak as piss.

I started doing around 4 or 5 exercises of each upper body days, followed by lower body days, then a day off, then repeat.

For upper body:

Chest press 3x8

Shoulder press 3 x 8

Lat pull down

assisted wide grip chin ups

incline bench press

Military press

pull ups or bro curls

suicedes

rope pull for tri's/

For lower body

Squats

Deads

plate leg press

quad extension

hamstring curl

lunges

standing/seated calf raises

I would also try and do some hypertrophy stuff after each workout, mostly 30 seconds on/off on the rowing machine or spin bike. Or I'd do some sprints in the park or on the beach.

So last night, I weighed in at 78.5kg's, 18%bf, and a 7cm increase in chest width, 1cm decrease in belly circumference. 2cm gain in arms and legs.

tl:dr: Massively stoked that SAU fitness can provide excellent info. Cheers!

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
