Sad to see you go, Rick, but good luck. I hope you are right and IB doesn't mess with what works, I would never have been able to get my car and my skills to where they are today if m.net was the only forum for miatas.

if m.net was the only site around, we would still be on stock suspension and have a lot of chrome.

::shudder::

I heard from a guy over on LS1tech that IB isn't bad. He had a couple little things that changed, but neither of them really seemed like things we would have issues with here. I have hopes that the new owners will bring good things, and use their powers (and capital) for good, not evil.

On a related note, related to this thread at least, circus presses are making me huge.
Reverse hyper??????? I had to google that. Seriously? I don't like the lifting on a machine idea.

Good mornings are ouchy. Me no likey.

Squat is yay of course.

Front squat is even more yay.

Power clean is awesome as fu (I did a 205lb squat clean this week) but is pretty advanced. Scott/Matt, I recommend you get a trainer before starting to go heavy on this.

Add reverse hypers and powercleans solely to reduce the potetial for injury. Add good mornings for extreme spinae errector strength (and weird looks). I recently added SLSquats to the list to strengthen my knees (needs a wider seat, again). You need to work delts, back day should be your longest, hardest workout, and you need to start doing grip work now...get back to me when you have a 16.5" forearm.

Did you get off the gloves yet or are you still being a woman?
Do you do pistols? SLS looks pretty good without the learning curve of pistols.

Can a mod change back my username before mods stop having mod powerz and my username becomes permanent?

Scott and Matt if you want me to come down and train with you I would be glad to. Faeflora will help you get pumped.

Oh BTW Scott when we went for a drive that spark breakup was actually caused by a loose plug wire

Admins and Mods will not be changing. The only changes will be Rick no longer an admin and IB Nolan is an admin.

I had no problem supporting Rick as a paid supporter when I was supporting the little guy. I really could care less about supporting some bigger corporation with my paid subscription.

Please tell me how I can cancel my paid annual subscription.

I might be the first to ask it but I can't be the first to think it.

I felt the same initially. I figure I'll wait and see how the transition is handled and if/when something happens that I feel badly about, I'll re-think it.

One can still hope there's a little guy at the end of every corporation right?

I still don't understand why fagflora hasn't been changed to failflora yet.

That's because it's never been violated, unlike yours.
