I told the guys in the gym about this challenge, they think its a great idea, getting you guys deadlifting.

No non members are eligible obviously, but theyre having there own little comp in here

Martin went 227.5kg x 10 @80kg body weight

I have vids but I wont put them up here unless you guys want to see them

Obviously no one here is going to do 1.5 x bw for max reps.

I think Nina is going to have a crack at 100kg for max reps tomorrow, she weighs 59kg. I'd be surprised if she doesnt get 20 reps

Keep going fellas, good to see you guys deadlifting

Pretty sure the only people attempting this challenge already deadlift, but it's still good exercise and goal setting nonetheless.

As much as I'd like Skyline window selfies for reps...in the off chance I win...the next challenge will be 50% overhead press or 1x bodyweight bench :D

Did a test today, didn't want to push it as I'm still adjusting my form so would rather someone there to make sure I don't f**k anything.

Got 20 out @ 65kg with gloves. May have taked a little long in between reps, was max 2 seconds I think. Could have definitely done more but as the above states, would rather not push it. Will try proper without gloves next week, and maybe not at the end of a workout.

As I was leaving the gym one of the girls working there started chatting saying how impressed she was with my lifting, did I compete blah blah blah. Then she says 'you were lifting, like, 40kg!'. Me: -_-Uu obviously looking at the plates only. And I didn't understand the awe 65 seems baby to me especially since I'm only a month in :/

And just watched your vid Simon, awesome!

I like the pretty colours of the weights, reminds me of that candy that came in bracelets and necklaces that you could eat. Nom!

I judge Simon harshly because he deadlifted 240kg@78kg in my gym

His effort is so poor, by our standards, and he knows this, that my 59kg wife would smash his 25 rep effort with 150% bodyweight (90kg x 25)

He was once the strongest guy in my gym, now would get beaten by the women

I'm not judging anyone else on here, but he's one of mine

Failed hard at this tonight...120kg for 6 reps before my grip gave way. Will do deads at the start of my next sesh for the filmed attempt. On the plus side, I'm up to 165kg for the 1RM.

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
