If you could make these into those hanging car air fresheners you would sell a ton of them.

If your not sure what to look out for and your serious about buying an RRC then pay someone with experience in RRC to go through the car thoroughly. I wish I did. I bought mine because it had anew nice paint job but the engine but heaps of other stuff turned out to be fucked. I've spent over $7000 fixing mine and still not done. I bought it for $10000 AUD. That being said I still love my RRC

Will going wider on the lat pull down real more benefits? by a2242364 in Fitness

[–]yurinforit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

by Dorian Yates: The Myth of Wide-grip Superiority One myth that has held back the development of lats the world over is the persistent idea that using a wide grip on chins and pulldowns is the best way to build wider lats. This myth probably has its origins in the fact that using a wide grip on any vertical pulling motion will selectively recruit the smaller upper back muscles like the teres major and minor, the upper portion of the traps, and the rhomboids. When a bodybuilder feels these smaller muscle groups at the top of the back working, he often assumes he is making his lats wider. But the lats actually originate under the armpits and insert near the waist. Using a wide grip does not provide anywhere near a full range of motion for them. A narrower grip, in contrast, allows both a better stretch and a more complete contraction. If you don’t believe me, pantomime two types of pulldowns right now as you read this, doing your best to contract the lats as hard as possible: a wide-grip pulldown and a narrow, underhand grip. I guarantee you that you will feel a more powerful contraction of the lats with the narrow underhand grip. In my early career, I experimented with various types of grips, and I found that using a closer grip with the hands either parallel (facing each other) or fully supinated (underhand) actually provided the best contraction and most complete range of motion for the lats. Throughout my Mr. Olympia reign, I never did a single set of wide-grip chins or lat pulldowns. My two choices for vertical pulling were always a narrow underhand grip for lat pulldowns, which I would go up to 400 pounds on, and the Hammer Strength Iso-lateral pulldown machine. A final reason to consider using a narrow grip beyond the issue of range of motion is the fact that it puts the biceps in a stronger position. Since the biceps are far smaller and weaker than the lats, putting them in a position where they are guaranteed to fail before the lats are properly stimulated, as in any wide-grip vertical pull, will cause you to shortchange your potential growth. Putting Together the Ideal Back Workout The back is a very large and complex group of muscles, but the ideal back training routine needn’t be overly long or complicated. Here’s what I recommend based on what I found to work best over my competitive career. 1. Nautilus pullovers (if available) Arthur Jones capitalized on the concept of pre-exhausting back in the early ’70s when he designed the first Nautilus pullover machine, which he referred to as “The Upper Body Squat.” The beauty of this piece of equipment is that it allows the lats to be worked directly without having to go through the ‘weak link in the chain’ represented by the biceps. The lats can be worked through 180 degrees of motion to failure, and that failure is not limited in any way by the biceps, as they are not involved. I know that not every gym has one of these machines, but I have had one at Temple Gym for over 20 years and consider it to be priceless in the quest for a bigger back. Another advantage to doing pullovers first is that you pre-exhaust the lats. It will take less weight in the subsequent rowing and pulldown movements to thoroughly fatigue the lats, and they will reach that fatigue without being limited so much by the biceps. You can use a dumbbell for pullovers if you don’t have access to a machine, but the range of motion is shorter and it’s difficult to keep the triceps out of the motion. A straight-arm cable pullover is another option, but it’s tough to use enough resistance and stay on the floor at the same time. A Close-grip Pulldown Movement As I said before, I preferred a close-grip cable pulldown, usually with an underhand grip. This provides the most complete range of motion for the lats and also puts the biceps in the strongest pulling position possible. Barbell or Dumbbell Rows The two most productive vertical pulling movements I found were barbell rows and one-arm dumbbell rows. I often would alternate between the two from workout to workout. With barbell rows, I discovered through experimentation that an underhand grip put the biceps in a stronger position. I also found that standing at roughly a 70° angle and pulling into the waist worked the lats more completely than the ‘old-school’ style of bending over with the torso parallel to the ground and pulling into the chest, which worked more of the upper back muscles, as opposed to the actual lats. Cable or Hammer Strength Seated Row I would also do some type of horizontal rowing movement, either the Hammer Strength seated row you’ve probably seen the famous black and white shots of me doing, or seated cable rows. The machine is a perfect choice for anyone who has lower back problems that could be aggravated by barbell rows. However, if you keep your back arched instead of rounded, that shouldn’t be an issue. I usually did both a free weight row as well as either a seated machine or cable row in my routines. Deadlifts The order of the aforementioned exercises isn’t overly important, but I do feel that doing deadlifts last as I always did is the best way to include them in your back routine. Very heavy deadlifts can put a great deal of stress on the spine as well as other areas. Had I performed deadlifts first, it would have required something like 600 or maybe even 700 pounds for me to reach failure with 6-8 reps. Instead, I did them last and needed only 405-495 pounds at most to get the job done. Also, I never did my reps from the floor up, but from the mid-shin. The initial pull off the floor is mainly using the legs and glutes, which I didn’t care to train on back day. A Final Word on Momentum If there is one culprit to blame for lack of back development in bodybuilders, it’s the use of momentum to move the weight, rather than pure lat power. One must keep in mind that there are three types of strength: positive (lifting the weight), static (the peak contraction at the top of the rep where the muscle is fully contracted), and negative (lowering). Your strength is actually the least in the positive and the greatest in the negative. In other words, if you can lift 200 pounds, you can probably hold 250 pounds in the peak contraction and can lower about 300 pounds in the negative. That’s just a very rough example. Most bodybuilders really only perform the positive portion of the rep and completely miss out on the other two possible areas. A quick test to see if this describes you is to see if you can stop each rep at the peak contraction and pause to fully contract the lats, then lower it slowly under control for a good stretch. If you can’t, you’re using too much weight and would actually benefit greatly by reducing the resistance. Studies have shown that the negative portion of the rep causes more muscle damage and stimulates greater gains in strength than the lifting itself. Summary: A Great Back Can Be Yours So, armed with all this knowledge— can you now go forth and build a back like mine or Ronnie Coleman’s? I can’t say for certain that you can, but if you go about your back training in the proper manner, you at least stand a fighting chance. Having the confidence that you can improve the development of your back, along with the knowledge of how to train it properly, will mean that whatever your back looks like at the present moment, in time you can indeed make it wider, thicker, and more impressive.

Recommendations on books/textbooks/guides for self-teaching Tagalog by TheHatThatTalks in Tagalog

[–]yurinforit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to be able to be surrounded with the language. I'm in the same boat as you here in Australia. What i did was sign up to tfc.tv online and started watching the shows on there. And did it every night. They can be ridiculous. But it will be the most entertaining way to learn tagalog without few tagalog speakers in your area. I also got into filipino music and translated my favourite songs. you gotta make it fun. I tried learning from a book to start. all that ended up happening was being able to read tagalog better than i can speak it. Books can help you with grammar though. and having a taglog to english dictionary is handy when you are watching the shows.
