Tonight was a special night for Leesh Because with the 80kg squat, she has now achieved her 3 "short term" lifting goals of 120kg deadlift 80kg squat 60kg bench !!!!!!!! Injury after injury and

So today is D day, the end date I gave myself to transform my body. Since August this year I gradually started cutting out excess/junk food; from October onwards I became more diligent with cutting ou

I haven't been to the gym, I can hardly drive let alone lift weights. I am resting, I didn't even go to yoga tonight. This isn't going to go away with rest.

Tried some foam rolling at home but now I'm in really bad pain when I move :( When I was foam rolling it really hurt on my shoulder blade and now it's just a constant tingling sensation on my shoulder blade with random shooting paim.. Good or bad?

It is going to go away with treatment & rest. Thats how you repair injuries.

Ice packs. Often as you can.

You can't foam roll and things till the inflamation is settled. As you discovered it just makes it worse sometimes.

You will get better.

I had another trigger point and massage session yesterday; went well. More physio booked for this week and ultrasound booked for next week. Doctor upped my anti inflammatory tablet dosage which I think has helped too.

I'll be back one day, just don't know when!

Thanks Rev :)

I have an anxiety disorder and exercise has always helped keep it under control. The last few weeks have been very difficult mentally but I've broken through mental barriers that I haven't been able to do for years, so I'm proud of myself in some ways at the moment. I'm getting my mental strength back :) physical will come next

Great work ! You should be very proud.

You must sometimes try to break things off that start to control you. You are proving that you don't need excersise to be who you are.

I am showing myself that nothing bad happens to me when I don't exercise, because that is what goes through my head. I'm now learning that my new exercise routine is going to be different and that's okay. I have an issue where things have to be 100% correct or I can't / don't want to do them. This is why I got so upset when I couldn't bench the bar without being in pain the other day. It's also why I'm not confident in deadlifts despite having coaching at PTC. Mentally, the last few weeks have been very difficult for me; some of my family and friends don't understand and think I'm being silly and dramatic. I'm really lucky Birds has been very understanding and supportive during this time.

I think I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel :)

good to hear Leesh,

hopefully your injury gets sorted sooner rather then later and even more importantly that you start gaining more control over yourself mentally. I've never suffered from anxiety but I did have a bad case of depression a few years ago, so I truly hope you continue down the positive and strong road.

      Fender flare widths across front/back of car

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Hey y'all! I'm curious about how y'all go about widebodying your cars. I noticed that when running a square setup, my front wheels are a bit more tucked in than my rear wheels. Not by much, maybe 5-10mm. This leads me to wonder - when I widebody, should I use narrower front flares and wider rear flares? I found a set of 40mm rear flares that I really like, and was thinking of pairing them with some 18mm front flares, but I don't want the car to look strange. How have others done this? Note, I'm in a sedan. Thanks!

      And if it was anything other than an auto tranny part, it might be a problem. But seeing as all auto trannies belong in the recycling bin, it's fine.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By dbm7 · Posted

      All the schemas I can see, indicate your typical setup of ATF 'cooler' (read: heat exchanger) in the bottom radiator tank..ie; https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/5413-rb25det/engine/214/ ...but I can prattle on a bit here. These trannies have a thermistor in the sump ~ the TCU reads this and 1. bumps the line pressure up when the ATF is 'cold' and 2. prevents the TC lockup clutch from operating, until the ATF comes up to minimum operating temp (keeps the ATF 'churning' through the TC so it heats up quicker) -- trigger point is around 55C. In these conditions, the engine coolant temperature rises faster than the ATF temperature, and also helps heat the ATF up, which is why it's best to think of the in radiator tank setup as a heat exchanger ; the heat can flow in both directions... ...with these trannies, the 'hot' ATF comes out the front banjo bolt, flows through the cooler/heat exchanger, and returns to the box  via the rear banjo bolt. This gets a mention, due to the wildly different opinions wrt running auto trans fluid coolers ~ do you bypass the in radiator tank altogether, or put the cooler inline with the in radiator tank system...and then, do you put the additional cooler before of after the in radiator tank system?... ....fact is the nominal engine operating temp (roughly 75C), happens to be the ideal temperature for the ATF used in these trannies as well (no surprises there), so for the in radiator tank system to actually 'cool' the ATF, the ATF temp has to be hotter than that...lets say 100C -- you've got 25C of 'excess' heat, (slowly) pumping into the 75C coolant. This part of the equation changes drastically, when you've got 100C ATF flowing through an air cooled radiator ; you can move a lot more excess heat, faster ~ it is possible to cool the ATF 'too much' as it were...(climate matters a lot)... ...in an 'ideal' setup, what you're really trying to control here, is flash heating of the ATF, primarily produced by the TC interface. In a perfect world, wrt auto trans oil cooling, you want a dedicated trans cooler with builtin thermostatic valving - they exist. These should be run inline and before the in radiator tank system ~ when 'cold' the valving bypasses the fin stack, allowing the ATF to flow direct to the in radiator tank heat exchanger, so it works 'as intended' with helping heat the ATF up. When 'hot' (iirc it was 50C threshold), the valving shuts forcing the ATF through the cooler fin stack, and onto the in radiator tank heat exchanger...and you sort of think of it as a 'thermal conditioner' of sorts...ie; if you did cool your ATF down to 65C, the coolant will add a little heat, otherwise it works as intended... ...the 'hot' ATF coming from the front bango bolt, is instantiated from the TC when in use, so all/any flash heated oil, flows to the fluid-to-air cooler first, and because of the greater heat differential, you can get rid of this heat fast. Just how big (BTU/h) this cooler needs to be to effectively dissipate this TC flash heat, is the charm...too many variables to discuss here, but I just wanted to point out the nitty-gritty of automatic trans fluid coolers ~ they're a different beastie to what most ppl think of when considering an 'oil cooler'... /3.5cents
