    Really good push session today. I’ve reformatted to go back to a PPL and remove the arm day.

    Session went as follows

    Cuff laterals
    Cable X-Over
    HS Inc press
    Smith Spoto press
    Inc smith JM press
    Rope overhead extensions
    Tricep pushdowns

    3 meals left today

    New pull session next up.

    How do you get on without any direct bicep work in there? Or do you have a standalone arm day ?

    Legs dusted tonight

    Very happy with how my adductor feels, I’ll be good to fully go at it next session out.

    Prone leg curl
    Quad stance leg press
    Wide stance leg press
    Belt squat
    RDL
    Ham hypers

    Got stung by a wasp on the way home which was a treat. Should hopefully add an inch to my calf!

    Meal and Supp prep done, just waiting for my last meal to cook now and it’s food then sleep

    Hi mate

    I’m with the team, tike to switch to upper / lower.

    I’d definitely look to move now, you’ve exhausted the progress you can make on the full body, so no sense in delaying

    Got in for an arm session this evening and felt good and fresh after a couple of rest days

    I’ll train legs tomorrow which I’m looking forward to getting stuck into

    All my meal and supp prep is done for tomorrow, just one meal left to eat now and then it’s sleep for me

    Hi mate

    Just echoing the team here.

    We can’t answer the question of whether he’s doing anything wrong without seeing footage of how he’s performing the movement.

    Why don’t you upload a video next time you’re training legs together so we can get a good sense of how he’s executing his reps.

    Hi mate

    How quickly do you normally drop back to baseline? See if this fits with that timeframe.

    Have you had an extended period without a high day?

    I assume you’re not normally bloated after the high days?

    You look class mate,

    Are you using this to share your training set up, or did you just want feedback on your pics mate?

    Rest day today and I’ve absolutely flat lined myself.

    Massive lethargy, appetite has totally gone, falling asleep every time I sit down.

    Taking another rest day tomorrow. I’m the guy that likes to train, I hate rest days, so to be putting an extra one in says there’s a need!

    Hi Joao,

    What is it that you’re looking to get from partials? Presumably something has sparked your interest in them being a solution to a “problem” for you?

    Good back session today

    Everything executed really nicely, and a little creep in strength along the way

    Low pulley stirrup row
    HS chest Supp high row
    Stirrup Pulldown
    Upper back Pulldown
    Shrug
    Hyperextension

    Resting tomorrow, penultimate meal about to go down now, then a bit of chill after a largely busy day

    Absolutely right mate, just need to keep things moving in the right direction. More muscle everywhere is the aim at the moment.

    Looks like you’re clear on where you’re going and how to get there, which is the strategic part of the battle won…. Now it’s just hard work and consistency

    Push session today

    I reset my lifts and tried introducing a couple of new bits, one will stick, the other won’t

    Good session, happy with my application, happy with my output.

    I’ve got two more movements I want to try next push session and then I’ll be set

    Back session tomorrow which I’m looking forward to, then resting on Monday

    Leg dayyyyyyy

    Tried some different sleeves today, not quite as good as my favourite ones, lesson learned

    All good though, crept all my numbers up. Probably going to stick with belt squat as a squat variation, I had a play with SSB today and it wasn’t quite as I’d hoped

    Just about to get my last meal on, then it’s sleep
