is that 6 reps or 6 sets?

Whats the point of doing low reps?

I do no less than 10 reps when squatting

6 reps x 3 sets. Atm I'm focussing on strength and size. Every few weeks I'll mix I turn and do higher volume stuff - lighter weight, higher reps.

lol

My legs are defined champ.

I doubt its as chiseled as mine

6 reps x 3 sets. Atm I'm focussing on strength and size. Every few weeks I'll mix I turn and do higher volume stuff - lighter weight, higher reps.

I train my legs no different than any other part of my body, by gradually increasing weight as i see fit with average reps of 10-11. Anything less than 10 reps and 3 sets is inadequate for me but most of the time i do 4 sets especially with squats. This way i get both mass and definition happening all at the same time. The idea of seasonal bulking and cutting up the next is only useful for beginners or hardcore builders, been doing this shit for 8 years now. It was only 8 weeks ago that i was squatting 60kg, however with consistency, last night finished 4 sets (first set 80kg as a warm up, 3 sets in 100kg) with relative ease. Looking into moving on to 140kg in 8-9 weeks time frame.

heavy weights with low reps are just another tool in the box mate.

People respond differently to different training methods, and most people will respond best to doing high reps AND low reps, mix it up.

Having 'big fat' legs or 'chiselled' legs has NOTHING to do with how you lift your weight or how much weight you lift, muscle is muscle, the only thing

that has to do with it is diet.

An ethiopian has chiselled legs dude ;)

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
