    Change of direction now to start focussing on strength development

    I’ll be looking to get some ostenil injections in my knees in the next few weeks, but I’m away with the new set up

    Vertical Scap retractions
    Narrow stance BB row
    SA smith row
    Low pulley upper back row

    Rope tricep ext
    Rope overhead tricep ext

    Stirrup curl
    Cuff laterals
    Standing calf raise
    Leg raises

    Two feeds left and a rest day tomorrow which I think will be very welcome!

    Agree with Oscar

    Perform the movements with excellent form, and use a weight tht sees you failing within your desired target rep range. From there, progress it up whilst maintaining excellent execution – go get it mate

    Hi mate

    As with the guys above, I have genuinely seen a significant improvement in my gut health since supplementing Glutamine. Don’t underestimate the importance of tht!

    Hi mate

    I see absolutely no issue at all with this. Just a case of subbing a new movement in

    Hi mate

    I personally don’t like them, not only does it put you in a pretty uncomfortable position, but it also makes me feel like my face is going to explode

    I think there are better options

    Hi mate

    I’d add a leg curl variation to lower A and a squat variation to lower B

    Make sure you are getting plenty of recovery, get form on point, learn to go all the way – go get it

    Hi mate

    I genuinely don’t see how anyone can go wrong if you add boiling water slowly to a bowl of CoR powder as you stir.

    Just be patient and you stop at the consistency you’re happy with

    The guys have covered the bulk above,

    Another fructose positive is that a balance of the two will almost certainly reduce the risk of your stomach being unsettled.

    I would note that I wouldn’t compare 20g glucose to 80g CoR…

    Very enjoyable upper session today

    Low pulley upper back row
    Dead stop rack row
    Smith SLDL
    Dual DB row

    Cuff laterals
    Overhead rope triceps ext
    Pushdown

    All food prep sorted for tomorrow, one meal left tonight, big leg session tomorrow

    Just on with UFC. Infuriated by the Usman loss. I don’t suppose Leon will be holding onto the belt long though.
