Should I mention I am VERY disappointed at your result lol

It always cuts deepest when someone you look upto says they are dissapointed in you lol

Out of curiousity, do you still train/lift on the odd occassion or have you more or less given it away?

Did this just now, got 14 reps at 102.5kg at 68.5kg. It recorded but when I picked it up I must have pushed cancel or something, will try again on Monday. That was without warmups and not Deadlifted in about 2 months, well traditional DL anyway.

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

to be fair Nina would smash a lot of guys at many different lifts... I'm a bit of a fan of hers!

he's not been training for it and still gave it a go so props to him for putting the vid up

your very clever with the way you motivate people, it works too... but your so much like my old man its scary lol

Have not read back to see who's completed the challenge yet, but I sort of gave this a shot for fun on friday without filming.

Did 17 reps @100kg without pausing, so I think I could do 20.

No grip assists, no belt.

EDIT: Did bother to read back through, and realised it's now running on 1.5xBW.

I'll properly attempt it this week. Pretty sure I weigh about 88 so holy shit I have to pull 132 for reps.

Tried this again lastnight; pulled 10 x 120kg before my grip gave way. Didn't have my training partner to video, so will attempt again and film on Friday...maybe at the start of the workout...gotta get that 14...

Also I'll be doing it again this evening in an attempt to better my 14...here's hoping my legs don't give out though, can hardly walk properly thanks to some intense squat sets on Monday lol

Trying doing squats right before the challenge ya pussy :P

    • I usually source pressure on inlet manifold after throttle body
    • Where is the best location for boost pressure source when running mac 3port boost solenoid?  my new turbo does not have a fitting for that on the compressor housing.  how come Garrett make a turbo without that?  im confused 
    • From my memory, which isn't that great, we did have issues getting the large throttle body on my old LS1 to play nicely at idle, first it would stall, then it would only idle at 2k rpm, then it would hang at 2k rpm for a few seconds and then drop and stall, then, finally, the best we got was it would hang at 1.5k rpm for a few seconds then drop to around 800 rpm The tuner stated that large cable throttle bodies are a PITA, and if I wanted anything better than what we ended up with I would need a electronic throttle body and all of the aftermarket ECU stuff to run it
    • So, my intake arrived  I'm not happy with the coating finish so I went to Supercheap and got some black wrinkle paint and some prep stuff I was initially thinking about using grey wrinkle paint, but finding a quality product that gives the texture I want was "unfindable...", so the tried and tested black wrinkle paint is again finding its way into the engine bay for the OEM look I'll sneakily head into work and get the big ovens cranking to cure the paint over the next week or so I've also contacted MX5 Mania today to talk about the install and tune, so painting it is my "main effort" prior to sending the car off In other news, the correspondence from the US supplier is fair to midling to say the least, I'm still trying to track down the intake box thingie with the larger intake pipe to suit the throttle body, it still is "awaiting fulfilment" (no stock currently available), if it isn't here soon I'll just get MX5 Mania to fabricate up a CAI that is easy to service the air filter  
    • Thanks mate. I thought it would be that way.
