I started this thread because there was so much stuff being posted that I didnt agree with in other threads, but I realize that not everyone wants to be strong

This thread is for those that do

So my posts in my powerlifting thread will always be about increasing your 1RM

Looks like I'm going to be getting lots of bench practice for the next week or two

did something to my lower back... right down the bottom, near my upper glutes... can't bend over at all... sitting and standing are very painful... lying down is okay... getting dressed is a challenge... might just go to bed clothed, will make things easier tomorrow lol

I've strained my erectors before but this is different... lower down and much more painful

I'm lifting at Nats... even if I have to do so in a wheelchair... so my back can kiss my arse

there's two vaginas... a front one and a back one;)

yep will be seeing Jason Mawby as soon as i get the correct phone number lol

leg movements are okay... walking not too bad... hurts to twist

anything remotely like a deadlift movement hurts the worst... TBH I'm pretty sure I did it last week... thought it was just tightness/soreness so I did a long warm up and lots of rolling... felt sore but I went for my working set anyway... it didn't pop or anything just knew as soon as I'd finished the set I was in trouble

just hit it with the hot water bottle and it's a bit better... which leads me to think it's just a strain... hopefully I can just skip squats/deads this week and it comes good

Wayne slipped on a roof and cut his leg very badly... Liam has a knee issue that he had surgery for... surgery didn't work but then they found another issue that needs time to heal

I think I hurt my back as a direct result of giving Wayne crap about having to load his plates for him... karma is a bitch

I'm off to see Jason tomorrow morning, then drop in at PTC for a bench session after... hopefully it's just an alignment issue, maybe a pinched nerve that can be fixed with some manipulation

That time of the year again. A few of my guys are riding that fine red line atm as they prep the final stages for nats.

Seeing emads snap has shocked a few of the guys into spending more time on

Mobility - rehab and prehab is up more than normal.

Saw Jason this morning, have to go back on Thu after I get my X rays

he told me to stand in front of the mirror and showed me how crooked I am... it was ridiculous and weird that I've never noticed it before

he did say it's possible I have bulging or slipped disk but I think I'd be in much more pain... definitely no nerve damage which is good... lots of ice for the next 48hrs

hopefully the ice will reduce the inflammation, the x rays will be clear and some manipulation will have me back lifting in a week or two

he did say once he gets me straightened out I should see a strength increase

on a brighter note I benched 125kg x 3 for 3 sets... still on track for my first 3 plate bench press

lol......no amount of prehab would save anyone from what happened to Emad

The operation is tonight, they are doing a biopsy on his bone to find the cause of the snap, as in disease, it has nothing to do with lifting weights, your humerus doesnt snap benching 110kg. It doesnt snap benching 400kg. It snaps if there is an issue with the bone.

I know mate lol. I should have clarified.

His was a freak accident.

Nothing could have prevented it.

It's pretty rare though I haven't seen such a break before.

Any specialist ideas on what caused it?

Plenty of guys bench for years without snapping it as such.

Keep us updated on how his going after op.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      This car has run before on this z32 ecu can get the part number for you, I have tried with no AFM it didn’t change anything, I compression tested today 140-150 across all 6 cylinders, also set fuel pressure to 43psi. The only weird thing was cylinder 1 plug was black and fouled other 5 cylinders were just wet with fuel. Spun cas by hand and confirmed injectors are clicking

      Since you came here to ask for help, have you thought about answering our questions, that might help us lead you to why it was skipping, or have you given up on getting advice?

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...
