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.

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
