Got my curls done again today 12.5kg for 4 sets of 10, felt pretty good.
Can’t wait to do some proper lifting again tomorrow. Body feels ready to lift. I’ve got one of my sponsors over filming the session but they are very good at just letting me do my own thing for the session before we mock up some other shots.

Yeah I have used chicken mince in the past and liked it as a protein source.

Rest day. Bicep and forearm a little sore from daily curls so gave them a rest today and will do my curls tomorrow as I up the weight.
Chilled day with a couple of dog walks and afternoon spent watching the rugby.

I mix mine with Greek yoghurt at the moment. Currently do 250g fat free Greek yoghurt and 75g of COR.

Mix and drink mate. Easiest way to consume 200g of COR when pushing food. Mixes easy in water and shaker.

Up to 8kg for sets of 15 on the db bicep curl. Bruising is well and truly out on the arm now, all the colours of the rainbow. Couple more curl sessions then I’ll add in some atlas stone isometrics.

Some more curls today. 6kg dumbbell for 3 sets of 20. Pain at a 1 or 2 out of 10 which is great. Will progress again tomorrow.

Had the dressing changed today and the wound looks ok.
Just the first simple bicep work done today. 3 sets of 20 reps with 4kg DB for supinated curls. Felt a bit odd by no pain. Will progress again tomorrow.

Change of plan now. Having the rest of the week off after I had to have a subcutaneous abscess drained today so can’t do much till it’s healed. Probably not a bad thing to have a complete week off tbh.
I’ll still commence light bicep work tomorrow but won’t train proper events till Monday.

For an 11 day trip I would just jab the day you leave. Really not worth the stress IMO. They seem to check hold luggage a lot more over there.

Physio went well this morning. Bruising is coming out nicely on the bicep. It’s feeling a lot more functional by the end of the day, stuck to the plan though.
Got into the gym and got some sets done on lateral raises, cable reverse flys and a couple of pressdown variations just to get some blood flowing.
I’ll rest it again tomorrow then add in some bicep work on Wednesday as part of my squat session.

Rest day. Bicep is a bit sore but still relatively functional. Physio appointment tomorrow to have a better look at it but the plan is to train around it for a couple of weeks while I assess its strength.

Yes but most of the time I’m mixing it with fat free yoghurt. Texture is normal.

Long day as I’ve got home from watching the UFC at the o2 – very lucky to be invited down by TKO which is linked to the same company that runs WSM. Got my deadlift session done this morning working up to 370×3 then an eventful events session in the afternoon. Bag toss done then on my stone run I managed to tear the remaining muscle fibres in my left bicep which was annoying. I partially tore them way back in 2018 but the rest had gone now. Not too worried really as I still have full function just with a little pain. Will settle it down over the next few days, get it moving again and then build strength back into it. Still on for Europes and WSM so no competition plans, just an inconvenience really. Runs the look of my left bicep now haha – lucky I’m not a bodybuilder.

Morning session at the farm with Ben today. Got the big boxy yellow farmers walk implements out to work with as they are similar to the WSM anvils we will have at the competition. Felt super solid on those and the walking stones where I did a full 20m with the turn and set them down. Grip and control of the stones was great. Finished the session with a couple of truck pulls took a lot of work to get the slope correct but we got there for a couple of easy runs. Will look to progress this in the coming weeks.
Evening session in the barn looked like this:
Log Press 113x2x6
Dips 3×10
Lateral raises 3×10
