If I felt really tired I’d have a nap and see i felt after but I know for many that’s not even an option for them haha.
If i couldn’t nap I would get it done and dusted early because you are most likely to feel even more tired as the day goes on.

Hey guys,
Rest day today I did lots of work and got my nails done 🙂
Tomorrow is training day, the off plan I had tonight will give me a juicy pump I’m sure!

I agree here.
If you feel like it’s been a long time dieting next time be more aggressive with it.16 weeks is a nice amount of time but you’ve been dieting since January which is nearly 6 months.

I would always have actual food for your post workout. You can have whey but adding in carb powder (which is normally used for intra) isn’t the best option imo.
What are your symptoms?
I would monitor blood glucose too.

Hey guys,
Woke up got went for a walk then prepped all my meals for the day.
This afternoon I trained quads and glutes it was a great session, the 10 x 4 on the glute drive was vile hahahaha!
Rest of the day I spent doing some work and spending time outside 🙂

Hey Andrew,
There are no hard facts or figures here. Gain as much or as little as you want on average per week but typically the slower you go (within reason) the more effective/efficient it’ll be.
You stop when it becomes unproductive and progress is difficult to come by. Ie you’re too heavy and it’s impacting your recovery via poorer sleep, digestion, elevated HR or the maybe even your mental health and so can no longer progress in the gym. This is when it’s time to stop…. Or alternatively stop a while before that point as it’s better to stop at the edge of the cliff, don’t wait to fall off it.

Rest day for me today.
Woke up got my cardio done made meals for the day and cracked on with my work.
This afternoon I had a massage, it was so needed!
This evening I had two consults 🙂
Excited to train tomorrow!

I think this can vary from person to person. Some people like to take a slower approach and others faster depending on their goal and time scale.
But I agree with Kuba here 🙂

Try not to over think this. Like the others have said just go by feel and enjoy your training 🙂
The more you try to complicate it it takes the fun out of it imo

I would keep them in 🙂

Pheebs and I trained hams and glutes today it wasn’t the best session for me I felt tired and beat up. Nathan has told me to deload for a few days next week. I feel like it’s needed because sleep has got worse over the last week or so too which is a huge red flag for me.
You cannot plough yourself into the ground especially with someone like me training lower 4 x per week.

All depends how developed they are. I have seated hamstring and a RDL in one of my sessions.

Quads and glutes today! Unreal session with lots of PBs 🙂
Checked in wirh Nathan he is very happy with where I am at 🙂
Before I trained I had a PT client, with me being online it’s nice to train someone face to face sometimes.
I spent the rest of the afternoon doing client check ins and then went out for dinner this evening for max’s younger brother’s bday.

Get as lean as possible however not to the detriment of your heath. For example I wouldn’t allow my lifestyle clients to get stage lean if they weren’t prepping for stage, being that level of condition isn’t healthy as we all know and hormones etc can down regulate a lot.
8 weeks probably isn’t long enough it’d hard to tell without seeing your pics.

I have to agree with Jordan here, would be different if it was a push pull legs split due to the amount of rest you’d get.
