BW: 81kg

BP: 80kg x 15 reps

Was a bit disappointed with this, as I really thought I could push out 20 reps. Would like to give it another go on a better day. All I can say is, for someone who doesn't regularly bench...you're a freak, rev! You'll have to trust me that it was touching the chest, as the filming angle hides the bar and makes it look a bit high (thanks Leigh!). Also, I do not have a hard on :/

Churs :) that was my second time back on chest after my rotator cuff muscle went super freaky so I'm pretty happy with thy number since I consider myself to be almost back to square one. Will try again next week :)

lol I'd love to blame my shoulder injuries for weakness too, but competitions don't wait for injuries to heal! We both put up our best for now and that's all that matters. Now to improve!

Your muscles will catch up again in no time :)

Eh it's all good practice I guess, probably give this a better crack on Monday I reckon!

You gonna try again? You were raging pretty hard at it affecting our working sets lol

Eh? I wasn't blaming my injury weakness. Was saying my muscles aren't developed because I haven't worked them because of time off due to injury. Have no weakness in the shoulder now.

That's what I was saying too...

Ok, I must have misread 'I'd love to blame my shoulder injuries for weakness too' as being in relation to me

It was in relation to you. My shoulder injuries have cost me valuable time at the gym, I haven't been able to do press movements to keep up my regular weights and consequently I'm a little down on what I can normally do. Was just saying that competitions don't wait for injuries to heal so it's a bit of bad luck for both of us.

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
