Told you so Dan.

Matt is one of the Top 10 lifters in Oz

Spending money getting taught by a proper strength coach is the best thing you can do if you are serious about improving your lifts.

Look forward to reading about your progress

To say I was surprised is an understatement.

Not that I doubted what you were saying Markos, moreso that I doubted I could do it given what I thought of my back and ankle.

Based on how I feel today, my back and ankle must be stronger than I gave them credit for.

Initially my goal for this year, as in year starting October when I busted my leg, was to squat and DL BW for reps and get those areas more balanced with the bench. I'm confident I can do that and will have to pick some new goals for the remainder of the year.

Really good to hear the session was worth it Dan! Good shit :) Similarly, even without the coaching, I was blown away when I managed to pull 175kg at ~72kg body weight. Nothing compared to the PTC lifters, but I just didn't think it was really possible to do with remotely decent form at my size.

Go as high as you want man; it's about you, not impressing others or meeting their expectations. People will always be more concerned with their own lifts than others anyway. Improvement can be addictive though.

Dan, over 250 clients at my gym have pulled over 200kg, only around 15% compete, the other 85% are just like you and everyone else on this forum, only stronger lol

In time, you will pull 200kg

Good goal

At all? wtf?

I've had... Banana, apple, rolled oats, a few cups of tea, some saladas, home made chicken and veg soup for lunch, plus the aforementioned suffer in your jocks everyone else donuts.

Edited by ActionDan

I've had 1x regular skim flat white (320ml total, 2 shots espresso) and 1x jumbo skim flat white (470ml total, 3 shots espresso), and a multivitamin. Apparently that comes to somewhere around 245 cal.

C'mon man, lack of food is affecting you. I said "At all? wtf? " There's two question marks in there.. Get on board :D

Well you're forked in the head my friend. Going a day without eating is just plain wrong.

Are you some kind of masochist?

Please tell me you're only kidding and you're not in just as much denial about human nutrition and dieting methods as Birds is lol

I'd argue being overweight by eating complete shit is a better definition of being masochistic. Hell, even just eating "bad" food like your donuts is worse.

Going a day without eating is only good for you, short of being lethargic and grumpy.

lol nah you're missing the point entirely.

I enjoy eating food, not doing it is painful, to do that intentionally is the definition of masochism.

I didn't say anything about it being good or bad nutritionally, I give no f**ks for that.

I'm a simple man Troy, food good, no food bad.

Troy not eat food? Bad Troy.

    • 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.
