Nick wrapped for the first time.

He needs to get used to them, Max went easy on him

you can tell Max knows what he's doing with those wraps... good for me as they take some of the pressure off my knees... can't wait to have a crack at 200kg

Australia Day 2007 I held my first comp, and I've had one every Australia Day since, except this one.

On that first one we had 8 competitors, here is what they squatted

Neil 90kg

Ghosty 105kg

Cory 105kg

Jovi 120kg

Adam 130kg

Simon 140kg

Herc 140kg

Benny 145kg

All lifts were PB's at the time, some by a long way.Move forward to 2013, heres who was in the gym squatting and what their squat PB is.

Rowdy 210kg

Zoran 225kg

Martin 227.5kg

Emad 232.5kg

Spiros 235kg

Daniel 240kg

Max 250kg

Jack 300kg

The strange thing is, with long arms like his he is supposed to have a huge deadlift and shit bench, like Fuzzy

The prick still benches 150kg

By the looks in his deadlift vid , Martin has a very strong upper back as well. He finishes the deadlift movement with some good power in the top range. That strong upper back is likely one good reason his bench is solid despite long arms.

    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
    • I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.
    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
