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 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

      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

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      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?
