Well done to the winner, great job.

Have you ever competed big fella, I know you used to train at MusclePit.

WA states coming up soon

No never competed . I did some lifting/training when I was 30 , with some silly idea of getting ready to do some track and field.. Never did get round to it(track). I was only going to a regular gym that happened to have a decent lifting setup. Was training by myself at the time so learned what I could. I got pretty strong, didn't realise it at the time. I was about 80 something kilos , I can't actually remember the deadlift weights but, I was squating sets of 250kg (235 on the bar) for 5-6 rep sets. I have some pics from back then , with some heavy equipment based lifts.

Had not done any deads since then. This last deads session is only my second since then. Did some training with some friends a few years back but, no deads or squats in that program (shock horror). Got sick a few times in the in between years and lost losts of weight. Plenty of it from the legs.

To correct the confusion I worked with Henry at Xerox (we talked about the comps and training alot) but, haven't trained with him yet.Kept putting it off. Sent a few people his way and figured more recently I would make an appearence once I am ready. I believe I have lots to learn since I have never been coached on lifing properly in my view.

definately like to see if I would be any good at the comp side of things looks like fun.

see told you, set the bar high... nice lifting

seriously though WTF crappy bar/plates are you using!? basically doing deads from a deficit every rep due to the small diameter of the plates lol... you could've propped them up on something

Ha ha... yes gheto weights. It's not so bad if I have to travel a bit further in the ROM I suppose, it's all about giving my back a good workout.

I think I irritate the missus as I am pinching all the weights to stick on the bar and then forgeting to put them all back. I think she is keen for me to go to the gym ha ha..

Well I reckon you can now set the next challenge mate.

Start a new thread with the next forum challenge.

Your choice.

Look at the results from this thread and make it suitable for the masses... after all it is to get everyone in to the spirit of friendly competition and to push themselves.

Also, PTC Perth hold Novice comps that you could go and try your hand at to get the bite which you will no doubt get to start PL again.

It's still possible for someone to do 28+ today. Come on people , you can't let the almost 40 dude win.

Yeah the PTC is in Malaga which is much closer than Muscle Pit. I am thinking that might be a good place to go.

I really want to learn the techniques to lift right and address the strength imbalances I have. Its more important for me to get that right before training hardcore for strength or comps. I believe that the efficiency of lifting right is actually a great way to safeguard the body for the long term and thats what I am after.

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
    • Trailer got new mudguards to accommodate the new wheels Lightweight ally Painted, stickered and done ✅ 👌
