Haha yeah it's all about the volume, I'd die if I had to as much volume as leesh. That reminds me, I need to work on my aerobic fitness more.

I never usually have a problem with doing both on the same day. Only that one time. Doing the rows on the same day is usually what tires me the most, from having to hold the bent over position.

Edit: Speaking of rows, I wont be moving up in weight for a few sessions, still lacking some muscle activation in the upper back on my left side

Yeah they're usually pretty easy.

Had a half arsed session today. Been battling some kind of throat infection or something for the last couple days, plus I went later than normal when all the 'gym bro's' are there. Bastards kept interrupting every 30 seconds asking how many sets I've got left. So I hurried up so they could do their crappy 1/4 squats.

Also was struggling to breathe by the end of my sets because of this stupid throat thing.

So was pretty pissed off haha left after squats.

End rant

Pullups: 5

Edit: On a better note, played some basketball with mates today, squats(I'm guessing) have definitely improved my vertical leap.

I tend not to train if I'm under the weather as it can allow whatever you are fighting to really take hold.

My absolute numbrr 1 tip when you have any throat issues, or ears or sinuses (that isn't something obvious like hay fever) is mouth wash 2-3 times daily.

It kills so many germs, I almost never have a throat issue take hold. Otherwise I tend to mouthwash only when I remember and usually just floss/brush.

If my throat is sore however, I power through it.

Leesh, yeah I'm all good haha was having a bad day.

Dan, I usually train even if I'm not feeling the best, I've found it tends to help, so it must just be a personal preference.

This is the first time in around five years that I've had any kind of throat infection. I don't get sick very often, probably why I was in a bad mood haha

Yep mouthwash was the first thing I reached for too.

Nah it didn't get me properly, just enough to make breathing difficult when doing exercise, so assuming it was some kind of infection. Didn't go to doctor and I don't have asthma or get hay fever so not much else it could be haha my professional self diagnoses :laugh:

  • 2 weeks later...

Ended up going to the doctor after I wasn't getting any better, was only sleeping a couple hours a night and eating one or two meals a day.

Got some meds, just finished them yesterday. Still not feeling the greatest today, but gave it a shot anyway.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
