    Upper 2

    Another really good session this evening, very very enjoying my training at the moment.

    Body seems to be behaving for now, but staying sensible with increments

    Just on with food prep for tomorrow and last meal for tonight, then rest day tomorrow before lower 2 on Friday

    I really like my studio beats

    I know I know “they are inferior acoustics to BOSE”

    But they are very heavy on the bass, which suits me

    Lower 1

    Very enjoyable session, just tweaked the movement order a touch to allow a little more warmth and movement through my knees before the squat variation

    Definitely worked nicely!

    Upper 2 tomorrow, just on with food prep for tomorrow and this evening’s last feed

    I’m echoing the crowd here mate, thts a tough run to sustain.

    Slot that extra rest day in and it will almost certainly prove beneficial over time

    I think the key to multiple rotations is having enough equipment to fill the sessions. If you have that, it’s a really solid approach to sustained progress

    If I was in this situation, I’d be following the protocol Kuba has suggested mate. All bases covered.

    Back around to Upper 1 today so he numbers to beat, and the numbers got beaten

    Probably the best I’ve felt training in as long as I can remember. I’m a lump at the moment, I’m sitting between 145-146kg so a good base to get strong from.

    Just sorted meals for tomorrow, I have one left this evening before an early night

    Resting tomorrow , then back in with lower on Tuesday

    Hi mate

    Agree with Clare’s suggestions.

    In addition, unless you’re on the smaller side. 25g whey PWO seems low, and I’d swap the BCAA and EAA for MPS Max.

    Hi Luan,

    Talk us through your logic here – I’m not sure I understand your rationale.

    Lower 2, which was really good.

    Leg press (high rep)
    RDL
    SL Prone leg curl
    Seated calf

    Joints behaved very well, so I’m happy.

    Genuinely pretty appalled at where I’m at on my hinging, I need to move on that hard and fast.

    Two meals left tonight, but if work, but I’d chill, upper 1 tomorrow

    Currently have everything I can cross, crossed as Bish goes at it in Britains Strongest Man

    I agree no need to load

    I work on 1g per kg of BW daily split AM and in your pre drink

    Do you mean 1g per 10kg BW Nath, or are you literally nailing 150g creatine per day!!??
