Hi mate

If uploading the pics isn’t working, try a YouTube video, or linking us to your Instagram page

Really hard to help advise what the best course of action for you might be without some visuals

Rest day Mondays – not my favourite days, but super necessary

Home and meals prepped for tomorrow

Having a bit of downtime now and then one meal left before bed

Legs tomorrow

Hi mate

Well done with the gaining phase. Sounds like you’ve been nice and patient and have a good awareness of keeping things in check

As Kerry says, share the pics mate to help with feedback

Very good upper session this afternoon. Weights are going up, body is feeling better and better so the confidence in the movements continues to grow

Just making my last meal, then sleep.

Rest day tomorrow, four day week at work, each day as it comes

Hi Lucas

Do you feel it is hampering progress on your push or pull sessions?

[Rich Ellis]

Very good leg session this afternoon

Knees are making rapid progress and that’s allowing me to consistently work harder and heavier

Two meals left this evening and then we lose an hour of sleep so aiming for an earlier night

Upper tomorrow to look forward to

Very modest increase in bodyweight over the past week so will make a post workout meal carb increase and see where we go.

Hi mate, I did this for a long time due to time constraints at work and had no issues at all.

Super easy, palatable, and quick!

Friday rest day. Was very late home from work, promptly fed, sat down on the sofa, and fell asleep

I’ve got one meal left to eat tonight, then I’ll get an early night

Legs tomorrow 🙌🏻

Hi mate

Same as Kuba and James here. 2 on, 1 off, repeat.

Pull session tonight where I had another good ramp up in load

It’s been a good few training weeks now, I’m happy with how it’s trending

I’ve sorted tomorrow’s rest day food, just cooking my meal for tonight and then it’s sleep time for me

[Rich Ellis]

Hi mate

Same as Meg here, I use MPS Max and do count it , but as the gang have said, the important point is consistency of either tracking or not.

[Rich Ellis]

Very good push session tonight, shoulders feeling better and better. Bicep feeling less and less risk. All allowing me to work harder and progress.

Just sorted food prep, one meal left tonight.

Sleep then pull tomorrow

[Rich Ellis]

Hi mate, agree with Oscar, you’ve done a good job with this

I would personally lead one of my upper sessions with pull work if you have a balanced need for growth – just my view.

Makes sense. I’ll switch upper B to pull first and push second. Thanks![/quote]
Happy to help mate, let us know how you get on

Get after it mate!

[Rich Ellis]

Where are you with this mate? Any progress?

Good leg session this evening

Tried out the 45deg leg press with a number of different set ups and have settled on one that can work well going forward I think

Looking forward to progressing that along with the hip press as my compounds. Still feel a way off any of the squat variations working, but think a few more weeks I might get that working with soft wraps

Just putting my salmon in and then sleep.

Push tomorrow evening 🙌🏻
