You do realise how much an IPF certified combo is compared to a monolift?

110kg

Yeah I'm not talking Eleiko gear. We're allowed to use our regular generic stands and bench in local comps, as long as dimensions are correct. Every gym in the country almost has a power rack that squats can be walked out of. The expensive part is the calibarated plates and comp bar.

Your mate would be 17th in Australia this year if he totalled that in an IPF comp. Puts it a bit more into context when you say he's been training for 5 years.

I also said he used wraps though. His best is 260 without them

Another big name dropping out of the Olympia.

Kai Greene gone, not allowed to compete and not allowed to attend the expo.

This adds to Dana Linn Bailey and Steve Cook both not competing.

Any confirmation on Greene's non attendance?

Why ergh?

Heath looks amazing

preferred Dexter over him. Also hopped Wolf would come in better.

I did see a still of all of them on stage and heath did look the most symmetrical out of the bunch.

Also, I dislike Heath whenever Olympia comes around. He becomes the biggest douche bag in the world

So many people offended people

Mainly all fat people

would have been a good competition between these two

I think i still prefer Phil's physique

Recent events with Kai annoys me. He always gives 15mins ramblings of why he didn't compete

  • Like 1

Wouldn't of mattered, still would of gave it to heath. I thought Wolfe would of been fighting for #1, but I'm not a judge.

Yeah id say you are right but it would have been good to see.

I wasnt impressed with Wolfe, i actually liked Dexter this year.

But heath was probably the most rounded

My back has been feeling OK lately so I've added squats back into my training again, I've also swapped out my accessories for more basic stuff, I'm on my second month of it and so far so good.

Benching more than I squat is arse at the moment but as long as I take it slow it will progress nicely.

Its still based on 531 by Jim Wendler which is a simple and effective program which is easy to use.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
