longtime listener firstime caller

[craneman]

Hey guys brand new here and was suggested to start here. Im a semi longtime member of another community and from a few google searches that tilled up answers here I decided to join. Im 36 and have trained off and on since my teens but got serious about 4 years ago. I started running gear about a year and some change ago with great results. Bottom line is im here to get bigger, stronger and leaner. Any help doing that will be greatly appreciated. Diet gear and training advice is welcome. Thank you for having me!

Welcome to Meso Sir,
What are your stats? Are you training for anything specific or have a training style you prefer?

Stick around for awhile! Most guys end up here looking for a SRC but end up never leaving

As vane as it sounds I started gear just to look better so I trained that way. Once I saw such a change in strength I changed to more weight less reps lots and lots of cals. Been lazy lately but awaiting a mailbox present and have started to buckle back down again. My body responds very well to a month long lull I will say. When I plateau ill usually take a few weeks off but this time has been sheer old man laziness lol.

Is that your bike in your avatar? I ride as well (only Harley's ), I can see you got the dual tanks, is it a softtail, can't tell because of the bags and small pic? Can't really see the detail in the pic, but cute kid, gotta start em young.

Welcome to meso!

If you need anything (besides a source), don't hesitate to ask. I won't call you bro, since your a rider, you know why , but I'll give you all the support you need if I can be of any help let me know.

 

[craneman]

I just picked up a sportster I am chopping, I want to go peanut but it's currently my daily driver, so I may stretch the tank. I'm gonna punch it up to 1250, and go full tilt, got a buddy that can get me over 105HP/RW without doing much to the crankcase, so it'll be a sleeper. Got the short shots on it, man its loud, but it's gonna get a whole lot louder!

Thankfully I don't have any noise laws where I live. Just got the front forks to extend the wheelbase, me and my dad do all the work. I love working on them, one of the few things a person can ride and still do "hot roddin" to. Fuel injection has been a bitch to learn, I have to get it dyno'd because I don't want to invest in the program, but so far it's been fun planning this build. Have to do it in stages since I drive it everyday...

 

[craneman]

If its injected youll still need the programmer if u do any intake work or anything with fuel/air. The dyno doesnts change the mix it just tells you what to tell the programmer. Its what tells the cpu what to do. If its a small adjstmnt the cpu will do it alone thats the bitch of no carb.
