I'm still here and still staying active.

A few months of cold and flue (son of rajab having kids brings some germs into the house) has seen me drop a good 4-5kg, so I'm down around 84kg now. The plus side is abs look great and Kate much prefers it so it's not all negatives.

As for exercising, taking it very ginger because sleep, health, and eating do not support anything magical. 90sec break for first 2 second set, 120 sec from 2nd to 3rd set.

Bench 105kg 8/8/7

Squats 20reps at 48kg - I work up to 25/30reps or so then add a little weight.

3min front plank.

Weighted chins at 24kg, 8/8/8

3min Back plank

Weighted dips at 27.5kg 8/8/8

Usually a little toe touching stretching, sometimes a set of 10 rack pulls but I do that only if my back can support it.

Sessions are 35mins tops, but at the moment that's all the time I've got and I'm doing them after all the evening ritual so sometimes 9:30 or so, not ideal but better than getting fat.

Leesh congrats on your results at the comp, great stuff - DL'ing as much as I was at almost 30kg less lol

I get gains out of my 40 min x 4 sessions. It's amazing how little you actually need to do if you broach it smartly. Compared to my 90 minute sessions once upon a time, hah!

Agreed, I could make a small change and be back on the gains wagon easily I think, there's no pushing for that at that moment though, being able to get into the Gym regularly and stay in shape is enough.

    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
    • Thanks GTSboy. I will inspect the valves actually, is this something I can do while they are still in the head? The block/bores don’t look bad to be honest hey, I can still see the cross hatches in the bores and they still measure 86.5mm. I’m not sure how to measure the installed ring gaps but I will do that and take it to someone who can. 
    • I’ve had the same headache with my lowered car, scissor jack first then floor jack every time. Ended up grabbing an extra-low profile aluminum jack (about 70mm entry height) and it finally slides under the lip without drama.
