$65 a week wtf?

Is crossfit not something you can do by yourself at a $15 a week gym?

well i work sales in a gym actually so i got free membership and the facilities are very well equipped

it's more so the knowledge i want to pick up but bear in mind it's more than just crossfit, it's also the muay thai etc i'm interested in

i've done martial arts and been to several fight gyms before and prices per week for unlimited classes would equate to almost or about the same price for just martial arts

so combined 65 per week for a variety of styles and classes isn't so bad and olympic lifting (barbell classes) is what i want to pick up to higher level and i can't do that alone from watching youtube videos

How many gyms are equipped for Olympic weightlifting and coaching for $15?

It is something that you could teach yourself eventually.

You once posted a video of your benchpress and had a lot of not so optimal things pointed out...if you'd paid a bit more to have a coach, people on this forum wouldn't of had to coach you.

I asked if he was paying $65 a week to do crossfit and he already answered my question thanks

And no, no one here has ever coached me with my bench press, nor has anyone in real life. In fact I've never received training or coaching from anyone, amateur or professional, for any exercise I do. All that was said in regard to my video was Markos' doubting that the bar was reaching my chest due to the obscured view.

Unlike your analysis I actually used items of proportion not static amounts based on an unknown bodyweight lol

Of proportion? Cut out a meal and lower fats? What proportion are those measurements you gave?

Mine were grams per body weight. So it doesn't matter what body weight the person is, the ratios are still the same but the end total will be different.

Practice what you're trying to preach here.

Oh my mistake, didn't realise it was the 'obscured view'

You told him to operate at a 500 calorie deficit lol

  • 2 weeks later...

Gastro can EAD, over the last 4 days I have survived on about 5 peices of toast and a box of ORS.

I dare say if you are pushed for weight loss gastro might meet your weight loss needs, you don't even need to leave the security of your bath room.

Did I mention that gastro can EAD.

At the very least, your insulin sensitivity might've benefited a little lol

And agree with Birds. It's quite similar even when you're not unwell; only the psychological 'hunger' remains. Just annoying that when it's easy to fast because you're sick, it's bad for recovery....because you're sick :(

My body hasn't stopped flushing out for 5 days now, put something in, wait 20 minutes and out it comes.

The only keeping me sane and hydrated is the hydration salts that I'm chugging through.

As for eating, nothing spends enough time in the gut to be of any real benefit.

I am averaging 1 roll of TP for my bung hole every day.

Will throw myself on the scale this arvo to review the damage.

Ended up dropping 4ish kg, will see what its done to my strength during next weeks program.

Will take a few weeks to get strength back mate.

I ended up having a heap of time off due to various reasons and the main one is i kept getting sick on and off for about 6 weeks. Started back this week and very impressed with how strong i am considering. But sore... Wow never have i got this sore from training. I dont want a break like this ever again i can barely move haha

    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
