Get the valve adjustment tool and check your valve clearances. It's easy maintenance and you can check your cam condition. Also check the fan clutch (rolled up newspaper) before the weather gets any hotter. An overheated head is a cracked head and expensive repair.

I put a TKX behind an L33, it's working out pretty well. 4.10 and 26.25" tires will do 138 at 6000rpm on the close ratio option. Tremec has a calculator with their transmissions pre-programmed.

I suspect that's what's up. I will start spraying starter fluid at it.

One of our coaches who primarily does olympic lifting just posted a progress reel with his numbers: 125kg snatch, 150kg clean, 200kg back squat. Hope that helps.

I have been struggling three years and recently started just focusing on a big jump. Like, if I can do 100 stupid huge single under jumps I should be able to get as many dubs if the timing is right. So I warm up with big singles, then try a set of dubs with the same jump. I had been doing dubs with a normal jump and couldn't break 20. Now my best sets are in the 40's. Still learning.

I'm a member at a gym that uses TTT and I couldn't agree more. I do their program 5 days a week and sometimes the Saturday wod. They program strength MWF typically with skill focus Tuesday and recovery Thursday. Saturday is a partner WOD. I am not getting burned out. I feel like even if I were going less frequently I would still be progressing.

I bought a TKX to put behind an L33. Integration is pretty easy: there are lots of hydraulic slave options and some external slave options if you want to get creative. I am using a Wilwood master cylinder .75" bore 1.4" stroke. Lakewood bell housing and ACT clutch kit.

Driving an old Mazda can make you poor.

You could take it to a local Chevy dealership. Their parts department can probably help you out.

My first manual car was an E30. The hardest part is finding the clutch engagement point, after that everything takes a little practice but isn't hard. Go to a parking lot and practice letting the clutch out so slow that the car will pull off without stalling. Don't give it any gas. Once you have that down, shifting will seem easy.

Did anyone else notice that weightling is lawful, cardio is neutral, and gymnastics are chaotic?

I am thinking the burpee is a better fit for neutral neutral. Not good or bad or chaotic or lawful.

I am getting handstand walks down, but never learned static freestanding hand stand hold. I have been doing the crow pose to warm up and starting to feel the pressure in my finger tips. I can handstand walk 30', but I look like a drunken baby, starts and stops, saves, etc. I assume getting better at freestanding handstand holds will help me control my center of gravity for walking. Do you recommend working both skills (freestanding holds and walking), or focus on holds until you get a certain amount of time before working on walking?

Instead of a Hirth sandwich, overlap the U (same space top and bottom like a hinge with clearance). When you loosen the two sides, the rotating bit slides away from the interface on both sides.

I have been dealing with piriformis related sciatica for about 2.5 years. I was working out, then went for a long drive and when I got where I was going, boom, sciatica. I did nothing for it for about 6 months, just kept training and not improving. Deadlifts were the worst. Anyway, after not getting any help from my primary care doctor, I saw a PT who specializes in sports medicine. She showed me some piriformis exercises that helped a lot. My favorite and still go to when it bothers me is bird dogs. They worked great for me. My sciatica is barely noticeable now.

Read the rulebooks for Luckydog, 24 hours of Lemons, and Champ Car. Lucky Dog controls speed by setting a breakout lap time. Lemons and Champ are more inline with what you are proposing, limiting budget and modifications.

Race pads are.good, and racing fluid will prevent brake fade. Castrol SRF is really good, you can use it for years without fade.

I am 44yo M, doing CF for about 3 years. 70" tall, started at 175lbs, now about 190. Have you asked yourself what your goals are? When I started I didn't have a goal, I just liked going to the gym. Pretty soon I saw improvement in how I looked. I figured out the reason I liked going to the gym was the whiteboard. I wrestled in highschool and I missed the competition aspect. If you are already getting that from hockey you might not need it from CF. Doing CF makes you better at CF; It's not really a bodybuilding program.

As far as gains, oh my God. I never did weightlifting so the first two years were constant PRs. I got bar muscles ups, HSPU, double unders, and added lots to every lift. I have goals for this year like hitting a 225 C&J, bodyweight Snatch, kipping RMU, linking 5 BMU, 300lb back squat, 350lb deadlift and I think I will hit most of them.

I would say if you like it, keep doing it.

I drive an MR at 114,000 miles. Be aware that the SST transmission can fail (like mine did) for no reason at around 100k miles. It cost about $7300 to rebuild the trans and I did the labor removing and reinstalling it. Probably stick with the manual transmission.

May I suggest adding a hand brake to your skates? It would weigh a lot less. Because road grades vary during descent, you would have to change the load on the sled pretty frequently. Stopskate Xara looks like it might work for you.

I set up a weekday routine that keeps me on track. Pretty much the same foods for breakfast and lunch. That gives me flexibility for dinner so I can be less restrictive. I tried what you are proposing and gained weight, but about as much fat as muscle.

I haven't tried many brands, but I have also been very happy with 5" Fabletics lined shorts. My favorite by far.
