Yep I do lock out that way and I love my scars from making love to the bar. I never experienced pain attempting deadlifts post-injury*, I was just cautious about doing them during recovery because of putting so much weight on the joint. The great Rev advised me that my kind of injury could be aggravated by them and just about heavy weight placed on the arm.

*I did try 90kg about 2 weeks after the injury initially occurred, to test for pain, and I had a bit of a pinch when the injured arm was supinated, but not when pronated.

Very surprised I was able to lift that given my absence from the exercise and straight after squats (normally did deads on a seperate day). I'd attribute it to maintaining my back with squats in the meantime. Here's hoping I can continue these cause I really missed them and my weekly progress!

Yeah, 2 months off and I did I PB. Not as much is lost as people think.

Fark me, my entire back is really sore and it feels awesome...like newbie DOMS.

Having not done any lat work for 2 months either, this is the first time I've properly felt the effects of deadlifts all over the back. I guess previously I was doing so much lat exercise that the upper back never felt it and I thought deadlifts were only about the lower back! Great to feel/know how comprehensive the exercise actually is.

90kg x 10

110kg x 10

140kg x 4

90kg x 10

110kg x 10

140kg x 6

My form was a bit better tonight on the heavier weight. Other good news is, I'm only 1 rep off what I used to do on 140kg. Next week I'll try for 7 reps of 140kg, followed by whatever I can bust out of 150kg.

Current goal: 200kg 1RM

Next goal: 220kg 1RM

I deadlifted 40kg x 5... then I had to ice my back... it's well and truly fckd... long rehab ahead... so very, very, very gay

I wouldn't normally read too much into that until I read your comment in the 'squatting' thread about wanting to see big buys with big legs racing bikes and getting sweaty and puffed out.... lol

on the bright side I'm going to be doing a heap of upper body work... so I should be pretty jacked by summer lol

lol we're polar opposites. Hoping to have jacked legs by summer, can't do upper body due to injury :/

Man I'm really sorry to hear this.

As I said... plenty of time to compete.

It's not like the next nationals is going to be worse than this year... it will always be bigger and better than the last one.

you better start eating then mate... big legs are hard work... especially for a taller bloke

Yes sir! I've put on quite a bit of size already over the last year, thanks to noob gains and filling up an hour long gym session with nothing but leg training. Looking much more proportionate than ever after years of neglecting legs, so pretty stoked about that. Do want more strength and size in them, though!

And I miss bench / overhead press / pulldowns :(

Thanks dude... yeah of course your right but it's still frustrating... this was the first time I'd done Max's program for a comp and it was a lot more organised and structured than what I was doing... also a lot more volume which was really working... I'd never felt stronger

I'd just settle for being pain free for day to day shit at the moment... never considered the amount of shit that's painful to do with a crook back... whoever designed a dishwasher can get fcked lol

Birds I feel your pain mate... just gotta get in there and do what we can

    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
