    Agree with Jimmy mate, 20g of whey is low, so the amendment is a positive one

    I’m rubbish at eating veg. Best I manage is spinach and the microwave bags of mixed veg.

    I supplement now with Veggiemight from the TBJP range, which is also a probiotic and multivitamin so ticks many boxes!

    Good push session today

    Tried the Christmas edition of STIM 2.0. I’m really picky about pre-workouts, I genuinely love this one. Really loved training on it!!

    Still got some sorting to do with my press of choice, but it’ll figure out

    DB Lateral Raise – 3 x RP set

    Rope overhead Tri ext – 1 x RP set, 1 x 3-part 10% set

    Machine pec fly – 1 x 3-part 10% set

    Close grip machine press – 4 x straight sets

    Good session, I’ll change tge press next time round but really happy with the rest

    A great investment for sure mate if you have your long term development in mind. A really valuable resource that you’ll be able to refer to as you progress

    Combine that with the education videos on here, and the athlete logs, and you have a really comprehensive and interactive pool of information to draw from

    For me the warm up sets are about getting you in the best state both physically and mentally for your work set

    I’ll typically work a number of warm up sets and then a number of “acclimation” sets.

    This really is individual though, some people are really happy going into the work set without an understanding of how it’s going to feel, others want to have touched something very similar

    You’ll need to find your own style, so as with everything, document what you try

    I can only echo the team.

    There’a always a desire for “more”, but take advantage of periods of sustained progress mate. There’s plenty of time ahead of you to change things, and you will certainly need those options at your disposal.

    Enjoy the purple patch, they sadly don’t last forever!!

    Hi mate

    A “quick fix” might be to alter the tempo of the movement. I don’t by any means suggest you start making it as ballistic as possible, I more mean work through an even tempo concentric:eccentric. If that eliminates the excessive soreness, you’ve got a good indicator of what was causing it.

    As the team say, invest some time into watching those videos in the education section mate

    Really happy to talk through intricacies with you when you’ve put your first split together , but that will be a really strong learning foundation for you

    With Oscar. Use that as a start point and then adjust to comfort and feel

    Inevitably you will want something slightly different to the next guy, so use the versatility to your advantage mate

    Hi mate

    As AJ says, really hard to give a comprehensive answer with such little information

    As always he’s outlined key considerations.

    It of course browns’s where you are on your training “journey” but it looks quite light on volume unless you’re a super freak!

    Perhaps a position to build slightly from if variables allow
