Recommended Posts

2 challenges in one month.

Challenge the first..

Body weight on the bar, squat till you can squat no more.

high bar, low bar, whatever..

each squat must break parallel (which means your hip crease when you bend, must be below the top of your knee at the bottom of each rep)

if you want to go Ass to Grass then go for it.

Challenge the next

Body weight x 1.5 on the bar, everything else the same.

Video from side so people can see depth.

Don't hurt yourself

Don't dodge this challenge.. at least do one of them.

If you can't squat your own bodyweight on your shoulders... STOP EVERYTHING!!!!

Put down your iPhone

Put down your designer microfibre towel

Walk over to the squat racks and squat the bar many time.

Add 5kg each side. place bar on upper back and squat many times

Continue doing this until you need to lie down for a while.

then lie down

then get up

then do 4 more sets.

Pick up your iPhone, micro fibre towel, your bottles of pre and intra workout drinks, full up your post work out drink bottle and drink it.

get home and eat many many animals and stuff animals eat.

go back in 2 days time and do it again.

repeat for 3 months.

Yep sorry...

Forgot to include our fairer members like Action Dan, Leesh, Jeppe and Manuel Kasko.

for the ladies, bodyweight x 0.75 for reps as the light option or bodyweight for heavier option.

only joking Dan.

Since most people won't have access to wraps or a squat suit, lets say raw.

But if you have and want to use a belt and have one, then go for it.

I'll give this a go in a fortnight after states is done.

challenge for the ladies? I don't know many girls who can squat their own body weight for reps

Really? I thought you trained at Elite Physique in Canberra. I saw 15 do it there at the last comp, only a handful were PL'ers, most were Crossfitters or physique competitors, a few went 2 x bw

Canberra has some very strong girls

In for this, even though my squats suck! Videos coming soon.

Any rules on time between reps Tolga - e.g. can't stand there for more than 5 seconds without a rep?

Birds - stay up top to breath out and in, then down.... towards the end you might need to stay up top a little longer to take 3 or 4 breaths so do it if you want.

Do what you think is right instead of looking for ways to cheat.. lol

I'd say your hands/shoulders and lower back will be fried before your legs give up anyway so resting in standing position to wards the end will be hard anyway.

FIGJAM - upload vid to youtube

link it here.

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
