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.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
