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

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
