    75.7

    fasted 30min cardio.

    Did check in shots today and some extra rounds of posing practice.

    Felt pretty good upon wake up. Im now really tracking my digestion in terms of movement / how much movement etc beacuse i am realising how much more important it is for me for biofeedback. Been doing this for the last 2 weeks.

    Had some seesaw mindgames about where im at, mainly condition wise but ik itll be inneviatble at this point in time. Feedback from Mark is tomorrow for leg day we’ll have no cardio and 8k steps with higher food.

    Did some more labour work today so had another later session but still had a very good session, I keep saying this, but im super fucking happy how training is feeling and with performance this deep into prep. The switch on and preperation to go train is getting harder most deffo, but I CAN STILL TRAIN WELL

    ITS ALL MENTAL BABYYYYYY.

    8 weeks 2 days out.

    75.6kg

    Fasted cardio 30 min and steps (3k)

    Had quite an early day today and had to do my check in shots in my gym locker room lol but is what it is.

    Feedback is that we ARE STILL doing the ‘low’ food and same output, Knew that would be the gameplan since it was firsr implemented it. Happy with seeing new condition but we really need the glute and hams to come into now.

    Have next check in on fri morning.

    BEST SESSION I HAD IN WEEKS for sure. fantastic leg session today, strong amd powerful and didnt feel groggy or tired before the workout which has been something i hadnt had in a while.

    LOVELYYYYYY.

    24 hours of travel should be no issues. Just pack meals

    holiday may be an issue depending on flight length and how you behave.

    Remember these things only become problematic if you dont plan right and you eat badly -if you plan well and eat /hydrate well all will be fine

    ive prepped meals for flights from ireland to aus 3 times so yeah i wont find it an issue, just the hydration and sleep will maybe be a thing to work on.

    even on holiday , ill still 100% have majority of my prep habits while away anyway. Not even because of need but almost like routine memory

    I definitely have a couple of clients over in Australia that definitely get the TB JP products. Do you want me to ask where they actually get it from?

    I got them from strom but i live in Perth right now so it takes so long for delivery lol and prices was mad. Still got em, got performance fuel, cream of rice and some vits :)))

    76.3kg

    Fasted 30min cardio

    Did alot of planning for the next few months without stressing about it and feeling less groggy. I think it was the melatonin, as it was only recently i started implementing it. Might lower the dose in half.

    Legs done and fuck they are cooked.

    Final exceptance that i cant do the same weight as a few weeks ago (mainly on top sets), which is fine, session still went fantastic and had great focus. Its like im feeling like im dragging ass and groggy when walking to train, warming up but when i do the first working set im like BOOM WERE ON, in another realm of focus.

    Details

    1x rdl

    2x lying leg curl

    2x hip thrust barbell

    2x leg press

    1x walk lunges
