I find I can squat and bench multiple times a week and still get quality work in on other movements

but deadlifting has to be planned out a bit because of the lower back fatigue... once the lower back and grip is gone I find it hard to do much else and need a full 48 hours to recover... otherwise my workout is compromised... lots of foam rolling on the lower back helps

I used to give equal time to squatting and deadlifting but now I'm focussing more on squatting and just deadlifting once a week... I find a stronger squat helps the DL, but it doesn't work the other way round

First time for a while where we had only novices, no lifter was a member of a fed

No novice comps in February or March due to the ProRawQualifier and Vic States

April before our next novice comp

^^ you don't have runners?

I've got a $20 pair of K-mart specials lol - I don't ever really use them. The closest I get to an activity that warrants runners would be riding my bike, which I wear my skate shoes :P

I do actually have a pair of Vans Authentics that I've squatted in before and they did quite well, though personally I prefer barefoot anyway.

i'm not talking about just lifting, I wear weightlifting shoes for most most of my lifting.

I didn't realise he didn't run, sprint, do circuits, play some sport, or do anything apart from lifting weights.

I sprint barefoot on a grass track :P I ride a downhill bike which is horrifically inefficient when not going down a hill....aaaaaaand I'm considering taking up soccer again this year, so I'll obviously need to buy boots for that. If I have time for it at least.

I just don't have time and couldn't be f**ked doing anything other than the above on top of lifting. Don't see the point.

I didn't realise he didn't run, sprint, do circuits, play some sport, or do anything apart from lifting weights.

I don't do any of those.

Drive to work in Business attire.

once home I walk the dogs

then lift

then repeat.

I do have sneakers though... for the walking of said dogs

^ I used to think the same, now I look over to my shoe rack and see work boots, black business shoes, and trendy fasion shoes not suitable for anything practical. Oh how the times change, back in the day all I used to have was runners, would wear them everywhere.

    • UPDATE: Yes the GSP Axles are compatible. I installed it on my R34 today and they are working a treat! Turns out that the S13, S14, S15, and 200 SX all used the same axles as the HR34, and ER34 NA models. Which is 2 bolt x 3 pairs.  
    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing
