    It’s most likely going systemic pretty quickly when doing subcutaneous jabs so I wouldnt worry about it too much.

    Where possible i try and get it close to the injury site just in case there are localised effects but if it’s overly difficult I’ll just get it somewhere near.

    Events at the farm this morning followed by massage. Couple of lengths with the walking stones, several yoke Conans carry runs with 200 and stones up to 200. The 200 felt super easy which is a great sign.

    I personally split my magnesium up during the day. I take 500mg (elemental magnesium) with meal 1, 500mg post training and then dream sleep pre bed.

    It’s up to you, try it out and see how you feel adding it to your dream sleep.

    Woke up feeling terrible today, terrible nights sleep and Hay fever kicking my arse. Decided to push training today and prioritise the deadlifts tomorrow.

    Couple of events at the farm this morning followed by massage. 20m of walking stones then 10x20m yoke/conans carries and finally stones up to 180. The stones felt super easy which is great since I wanted to be cautious reintroducing them after the previous bicep tear.
    Body is generally beat up and sore as is the norm when strongman events re enter the programme – they really do tax the body.

    What are the goals of your training?

    Do you need to include trap bar deadlifts, RDLs, squats etc or could some machine based options get the desired training outcome.

    I am not one to usually choose machines over free weight options but in this case there would be some better exercise choices if you have kit available Belt squats, leg presses, reverse hypers, open chain machines (leg curl and extension variations) would all be much lower risk options if you do not have a specific reason to need to use free weight movements

    Thank you all! I’m going to add another ml and see how it goes and if not I’ll try IM! Much appreciated!

    If you’ve already done a couple of shots from that vial and you add a ml of bac water to it now it could make the maths for getting the desired dosage a little complicated, or at least too complicated for my meathead brain.

    If it were me I would just add a little bac water to the insulin pin once I’d drawn the mots c and give it a little mix about before injecting.
