Deadlifts

1x4 @ 100kg

1x3 @ 120kg

1x2 @ 150kg

1x1 @ 170kg

1x1 @ 185kg

1x1 @ 210kg (PB)

1x0 @ 230kg

1x0 @ 220kg

210kg went up easy, should have gone 220kg instead of 230kg, oh well, you live and learn.

Been flat out with work so haven't been on here to update in a while.

Tested my 1RM's this week and saw PB's in all 3 lifts, needless to say I'm pretty happy.

105kg Bench

160kg Squat

220kg Deadlift

Now only 15kg off that goal of a 500kg total by the end of the year.

Really struggled to get on here lately to update.

Just last week finished my most recent 12 week program and tested......not good results.

Couldn't beat my 160kg squat or 220kg deadlift, managed an ugly 110kg bench with ass coming off the bench.

Doesn't look like I'll get that magical 500kg total I was hoping for by the end of the year unfortunately.

Couple of other guys who are doing the same program with me I was out squatting have now overtaken me big time just in the last 12 weeks, ones squatting 170kg and the other 175kg with all of us doing virtually the same program.

This new program I started this week is far higher in reps (between 5 to 12) where as my last program was between 2 to 5 but weight is still based off the same percentages of your 1RM.

Just half way through the first week of this new program and its almost already destroyed me :-/

Well just looked back on the goals I set for 2015 and got around the mark so pretty happy with that.

Weight goal to stay below 85kg (sitting around 83kg~)

Squat goal - 175kg (170kg = current 1RM)

Deadlift goal - 230kg (230kg = current 1RM)

Bench goal - 100kg (116kg = current 1RM)

Total goal - 500kg (516kg = current total)

So my goals for this year.

Keep weight below 85kg

Squat - 190kg

Deadlift - 250kg

Bench - 130kg

Total - 570kg

Got some very sore QL's in my back after a heavy 3 x 3 deadlift set @ 222kg during the end of my last program.

Went to sumo deadlift's to remove the strain on the QL's and managed a 250kg PB on just my second session.....definitely felt like cheating.

New program has both conventional and sumo deadlifts in it to see where I put my focus...

Been rather slack updating this :-/

Last programme more of a focus was put on body composition vs. outright strength.....decided to do my first ever 'cut'

Started at 81.9kg (17.7%bf)

Finished at 77.5kg (12.3%bf)

I lost 5kg on my bench (110kg 1RM)

5kg on my squat (175kg 1RM)

but managed a 5kg PB on my deadlift (255kg 1RM)

Looking back on my goals they obviously shifted a little but happy with where I'm at.

This programme (started yesterday is consisting of a lot more volume :-/) and a focus is getting more so back to strength, upping the calories etc. but hoping to try and only put back on 'clean' weight.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
