Today was my usual Wednesday leg session, which went really well. I had a friend jump in with me on this one, so was good to bounce off someone else too.

Enough time to feel recovered, get a meal in and allow it to digest.

Thanks for all the responses everybody!

It must be an off batch if nobody has experience with the soapy taste, it’s not something you wouldnt notice.

I’ll contact customer service and ask them about it.

Also thanks for sharing all your favorites, I’ll look into them when I finish my bag of soap 😛

That may well be the coconut.. maybe just something you don’t like. Anyway there are plenty of other flavours to try!

I have never experienced a chemical taste to any of the flavours personally. You may just not like that flavour. My go-to favourites are Chocolate Orange, Cookies & Cream, Caramel biscuit and Custard Cream.

A good upper session today. Still progressing nicely with this set up. I’m also adding in an off plan meal today as I feel I need some extra calories. The scale weight dropped a touch this morning too.

In short, yes smoking will slow your bodybuilding progress, not to mention your longterm health. It will directly affect oxygen delivery, recovery capacity and training performance. Nicotine also increases cortisol and can impair sleep quality, which is when your body repairs and builds new muscle tissue. Ultimately cutting down or quitting has to come from you and a real want and need to do so. Therapy may help, and taking small steps such as swapping a cigarette for nicotine gum during cravings and setting yourself a daily cap that you can gradually reduce.

A typical Monday for me. Starting with a run, then a mix of work, sorting the house and getting organised and set up for the week ahead.

No changes to my baseline routine, diet or supplementation since I last updated. I’m still being reactive and instinctive with food, rest or training if needed, but otherwise no changes.

As Kuba says, 150mg daily injections is a reasonable starting dose. IV infusions are another alternative, taken either weekly, or every couple of weeks.

Daily glutathione injections give a quick, short lasting spike into the muscle, while IV infusions deliver the full dose directly, but slowly, into the blood stream, which allows for much larger total doses and creates steadier levels with fewer side effects.

Electrolyte balance matters, but for the average healthy person it isn’t something you need to overly worry about as the body is good at regulating levels on its own. It only becomes important to replace electrolytes when losses are particularly high, such as during long, sweaty training sessions, in hot weather, after vomiting or diarrhoea or if carb intake is very low. Other than that, eating a varied healthy diet and keeping well hydrated should be enough.

You need to improve your cardio fitness. Like Adam suggests, find time during your days where you can potentially fit in more walks or dedicated cardio. If you can get up a little earlier and get 20-30 mins cardio in first thing on your rest days, that would be a great start.

No gym today, just a 10km run this morning, then a few jobs around the house. This afternoon my husband and I have been to a couple of house viewings, and now back home to do a bit of work while my husband goes out for a cycle. We’ll have a chilled night in with a film later.

Do what feels best for you. Most people find 90 mins is adequate, especially if having an intra drink during training. I would say anywhere between 60-120 mins is fine.

I was back at the reformer Pilates class this morning, after having to miss last week’s. I’m still really enjoying these sessions and continue to notice improvements in my core strength and stability each week. I’m meeting a friend later this afternoon for a long walk, so I’m going to get stuck into some work now.

Considering your age, providing your body composition is reasonable, then I would be more inclined to advise you to get into a steady gaining phase now and build as much tissue as you can while you’re still young, with optimal hormonal levels, health and metabolism. Take your time and enjoy your training. Focus on progressing your lifts and keep to a small surplus. You’ll be able to get a long gaining phase out of this if you keep bodyfat levels reasonable throughout.
