Its ok now it seems to have fixed itself. Im on a break now and came home to play around with it again. I went from reverse to tiptronic and it make a large clunk and shake and whatever was popped out seemed to have popped back in again.\
Its due for a service anyway so ill get the fluids and filters changed then. Thanks for the help anyway automotive guys and girls. And monkey...
Yeah I havent changed the fluid since i bought it but its clean and topped up. It just sounds like its almost not engaging, When put in drive the engine changes like its under load. but no movement from the wheels.
Also I thought about driving in reverse everywhere as well. Im just not sure how fast I could go
Ok so I own a 1996 Mitsubishi diamante station wagon.
It has tiptronic transmission.
Today when I went to go to work I put it in drive and fuck all really happend. The engine sound changed but it did not pull forward.
I put it in reverse and it went in reverse fine.
I put it in Neutral and it still went in reverse.
When I try the tiptronic side it will only go into 1st and 2nd. Still not moving.
The car has clean and topped with Trans fluid.
Has anyone encountered something like this before? Its going to have to go in and get repaired regardless. But I was hoping there was someone here that could give me some insight.
The old man mentioned it could have something to do with the gear selectors.
1km is a tremendous distance at uni unless you have a longboard.I was working in the Uni kitchens this weekend just been. Got some temp work cooking for the year 9 and 10 girls of Acland house. Where the Girls high school boarders stay.....
I'm on Wendler's 'Big but boring' program atm and even that has a full week off (or just additional training, no main lifts) once a month. Otherwise I'm doing Chest/tris Mon, Deads/Biceps Tue - rest - OHP/shoulders Thurs, Squats/core, Friday. then REST NIGGA REPEAT.
Give your body a rest m8.
I dont run my workout that way. I used to but got fucking bored. Ive gained 8kg of muscle in the last year and my traps and back are sexy as fuck. I have prominant quads and biceps that measure 38cm.
Now that im doing more crossfit, im leaning up more and still keeping gains. But im less about gaining and keeping gains and more about developing functional muscle with more fast twitch response and endurance.
If my body tells me to rest then I rest. But I havent felt my body tell me that in months. Keeping a close eye on my weight gain and reduction. Its hovering around 70-73kg. Before I started working out I was a measly 64kg at 1.66m tall. Also a nice daily dose of Amino acids and protein with Low GI index helps a lot even if it is costing me terribly in the pocket.
Ive also just seen todays workout at the gym. Fuck
Valentines Day Massacre
For max total reps:-
4 min max reps SDHP, 50kg (35kg) (Sumo deadlift, high pull) 3 min max reps KB swings, 24kg (16kg) (Kettle bell swings) 2 mins max reps HSPU (Hand stand push up) 1 min max reps burpees
I fucking love KB swings and burpees. I however have weak abductors so the Sumos I could have trouble with. However the Sumos will strengthen them anyway
He obviously didnt read that part monkey. PLus if I lift in the morning. I have the rest of the day, and then the night to sleep before I do it again. And even then I might only do isometrics the next day.
After a big workout yes. But they are normally only an hour long so I dont get to involved in it. With the heavy weights I may only work on them for half an hour. And that be just on form correction alone. No weight. Just bar.
Plus im about 65% wolverine. So body heals overnight normally
Ive got even more stability in these. I was in bare feet for a long time. Plus im due to compete in 4 weeks at the Crossfit open. Correct footwear is essential to correcting bad form and looking super cool as well.
Also squats are not rare for me. Im doing them every day. Well deads, squats over head, back and front and olympic lifts like the cleans, jerks and snatches. I also like to set PR's whenever I can
Today I bought another pair of new shoes. Reebok Oly weightlifting shoes. They feel a little tight but I'm told they are meant to be so as I dont slip around when clean and jerking 100kg.
A valentines day gift to myself, because im forever alone
Todays workout. was pretty brutal if you werwe doing the 82kg weights. My max clean of 3 reps is only 85kg. Meaning 7 reps of front squats would mean I would have to be doing 140kg 1 rep max to smash out 7.
I scaled it down and went for 45kg. Much easier and I wanted to finish.
Chest to bar is just like a pullup except you bring yourself up a little more and bang that chest on the bar.
Im monkeyman by the way. Theyve nicknamed me this because I like to swing around on the bars.
she shoudlnt have been in the way of my hole progress. The hole ended up being a good 10 ft in diameter and 3 ft deep. took a long time as we hit water after a foot
Yeah guess its different strokes then. Its not like we all stand around one person while they lift. Everyone is lifting. But we do it in pairs for spotting. Sometimes its not physical strentgh barriers one has to break through, Its a lot more mental. And to have half a dozen people yelling at you to pick up the fucking weight and it aint nothing could be all you need to lock out those legs or jerk that bar above your head.
Heres today WOD which I will have to complete. My class starts at 12:15
WOD - Today
11/02/13
Seven rounds for time of: 82kg (55kg) Front squat, 7 reps 7 Chest-to-bar pull-ups.
Will post my results when I get home. I have a 3 hour hike to do after this workout as well. Its with a cute girl so I hope my legs dont give out near the top
Heres a wee one of my back then Monkey. Mate took it at the beach while we were digging a very large hole to relax in.
Edit. I know it looks like IM about to swing my spade at that poor wee girl. But I assure you she was helping dig the hole. and she was doing a great job!
Sadly a lot of places are doing this sort of crap, which is why I'm not too fond of it myself. Crossfits WOD basically pushes people to beat your previous best times and others times as well, so form a lot of the time goes out the window in order to get on the board, putting people in bad positions and risking injury.
Yes it is. This pains me to see. Snap city direct ticket. The weights on there bars are fucking rediculous. Also what the fuck is a dog doing in the gym.
I feel much safer at my gym, purely because the same coaches that train me, Train the All blacks and a few Silver ferns that come in from time to time
Ok more girl videos then. Dana gets my muscles twitching too. She would destroy any man in the sack I reckon, Tightening her vaginal muscles until it snaps off. Snap city bitch
Jesu they musty have bveen terrible gyms you tried them at. To even further on with my gym I had to attend 3 elements classes where I was taught the fundamentals of correct form, respect for the body and basic understanding of what is in the workouts and how to approach each one.
To believe that the coaches just leave you to it is bullshit. Im constantly told off by my coaches and given tips when I am performing my routines in order to make sure I am not only doing the exersice in the most efficient way, but also to avoid any injury from bad form. They constantly hover around shouting words of encouragment and checking on good form and that you are fully squatting or locking out the arms. If not, you start again. The workouts can be scaled also, so you can lift as much or as little weight as you want. They just want to see that you're trying.
The gym I workout in doesnt even have any machines. We have some rowers. The rest is a jungle gym type of bars, some ropes hung from the ceiling and plenty of bars and weights that you can throw arouind.

It was at that point I realised that crossfit is not much different at all to any other marketing plan, where it's sole intention is to get people into the gym, and isn't in any way or form about sharing workouts and encouraging people to better themselves when they're too ashamed to start out by giving them a way to do things on their own.
you've a very closed mind idea about it in this respect. we spend most of our stuff in teams, either cheering each other on to further beter ones self, or congratulating anyone in the class no matter how small or big the achievment is. Kinda the reason I joined, Bigger social aspect almost to the point of a community, and the ability to challenge ones peers to continue pushing.
Marekting however is almost true. It didnt however get me in the gym, It made me get more out of it in more than 3 respects. However what way they did it to get people to exersice, it certainly cant be as bad as what some marketing campaigns will have yo buy into. ahem... apple
Nice to see someone else working towards A body goal. Im not so much now but still enjoy the pump. I am however not using any more machines in the gym. Im all free weights and compression weights
Current PR's are as follows.
Overhead squat 3 reps max at 60kg Back squat 3 reps max at 85kg Front squat 3 reps max at 85kg Power clean 3 reps max at 90kg Clean and jerk 3 reps max at 85kg Benchpress 3 reps max at 95kg
I so want to increase those byt at least 25-30kg on each one. But its going to take time and correct form so as not to snap my shit up.
Is there anyone else doing this right now? Ive just completed my first month and simply love it.
I spent 10 months in Queenstown in there gym for 2 hours a day 5 days a week pumping iron and getting on the bike. But it bored the shit out of me and I wanted to incorporate a more social dynamic into it as well.
I enjoy high intensity cardio. I enjoy Olympic weightlifting. I enjoy climbing on ropes, Bars and pushing my body further and further each time.
Crossfit games are in one month. So ive started training to see how I do.
Im currently training at Frank brothers gym in Montreal street Christchurch. For those that done know, Ken Franks the owner has two sons. Owen and Ben franks. Who regulary train there, among other all black and silver ferns also.
Also I get to see a lot of this when I workout. Chcikl that can squat there body weight bro. Maaaan Ive never seen such sexy posterior chains and stomachs!
sunady work. Bugger bro. Time for skating down at washies for me. well after I help my skate buddy to clear the driveway of his weeds. Im not sure how i got roped into that
