Good news on my abdomen, it seems I only tore some muscles and not another hernia, no heavy lifting for a while though.

So today I started some GVT, day 1 was chest and middle back, 10 x 10 of DB bench followed but 1 arm row for mains.

As I haven't done a lot of volume for a while 100 reps of each although with a light weight I am feeling it now.

3 months of this should be interesting.

I'll drop in my program once I've been through it and am happy with it.

Sadly no squats, cleans or deads in it till my current injury is sorted.

I'm using 600mm step ups and RDL for legs if the guts can cope.

100 step ups should be interesting, I'm also waiting for Thursday when I'm meant to do 10 x 10 of heaves, I assume I will need more than 10 sets to get the 100 out.

Fun times ahead, LOL.

Did some legs today against the doctors orders. Only did real light weight and made sure i had correct form. Only exercise that gave me a lot of grief was squats.

Have pulled up real tight. Will see how it is in the morning

Good news Bird, well done!

Here's my update.

I took random bathroom selfie to text Kate while she was out walking the dog (excuse facial expression, was not meant fo ryou guys).

Still missing a good 3-4kg, so I'm about half way there on what I lost way back when I hurt my back (still not squatting, only doing bike work) also carrying much more mid section fat as you can see (abs could be worse given my ab work consists of a few basisc planks for back strength and some swiss ball morning glory type things).

Still down on all lifts also after that shoulder strain which is sticking around a little but slowly getting better.

Could be a lot better but given my diet has suffered (not that it was ever specific for training but I tried to eat healthy, but with a child, work very busy,etc) and that I'm only getting 3x 30min sessions a week (including a good 10mins of bike) I am managing to maintain some shape at least.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
