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.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
