I got a friend to watch my back on the 75 and she said I was rounding it at the start of the lift, which I could feel too so I think at this stage it's just too heavy. My back hurts straight after deadlifts and continues to hurt for the rest of the night which I'm starting to worry about.

How are you finding the volume training? Recovering OK?

Volume training is fine, been doing it since December. Recovery is fine too, except I only have Sundays where I do no exercise; would be nice to have another day off, but I'm not giving up aerobics, yoga and boxing so I'm more tired than anything.

Her sleep is very crappy...very much holding her back IMO, despite me being very happy with her progress. We're trying to sort it out at the moment.

Vegetarian diet makes protein intake difficult, but I think she's managing okay on that front.

Certainly has lots of potential!

there are a few companies out that provide vegetarian protein powders, forget their names but they say there is absolutely no animal produce in them.

they were at the sydney gym expo this year.

Yeah bioflex make one :)

Your sleep and diet must be decent then, or you are not even close to your power potential.

Which is completely fine depending on what your goals are.

Diet yes, sleep no.

Went to the doctors and got melatonin tablets, slight improvement but my issue is extra stress at the moment and not being able to switch my mind off. It takes me at least an hour to get to sleep then I wake up all throughout the night. Not sure how else I can sort it out without going on sleeping pills.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
