I got up, hydrated, then went out for a fasted run first thing, then after meal 1, went to my Yoga session, which I’m still loving atm and look forward to going each week. I’m slowly learning the poses and flows and can really feel the improvements, so this will definitely be something I’ll continue next year.

If it’s giving you negative side effects like that, I wouldn’t bother taking it.

Today was a Leg day. I had to train slightly earlier today to get back home in time for a delivery, but I got in what I needed to and had a good session. I’ve got stuck into some course work and research this afternoon, and have been sat down for a long time, so I’m going to get out for a walk now and get some fresh air and steps in.

As Jordan says, it all depends on what you’re doing, how intense you’re training, your exercise selection and volume, and your recoverability.

Today is a rest day from training. I’ve got a long list of things to do today, which I’m slowly getting through. I started the day with a run and had a Dentist appointment this morning, but aside from that I’ve been doing some writing for some nutrition posts, getting some course work done and completing an exam, as well as running some errands in preparation for Christmas and a couple of birthdays coming up. Busy busy.

Bloating will cause scale weight gain due to the inflammation and water retention. It sounds like there is something in what you’re taking pre that is causing you digestive issues, particularly if this is the only time you’re experiencing this. I would try removing the products and see if you feel any better.

I woke up feeling very fatigued. I also had a headache, which is something I rarely suffered from. I decided to go for a walk and do an online Yoga session this morning, instead of going to the gym. Back in my competitive bodybuilding days, ignoring my body and pushing through was very much the mantra, but now I’m all about listening to my body, nourishing it and taking care of my physical and mental health. I’ve just done some online work and rested this afternoon and feel so much better for it.

I haven’t heard of them, but if they test via finger prick instead of a blood draw, then I wouldn’t bother. The results of a finger prick won’t be as accurate.
Companies such as Eval Blood Analysis and Youth Revisited offer a quality, reliable service.

Today’s a rest day. I did a 7km run after my first meal this morning, then caught up on a few jobs around the house. My husband and I popped out for a walk and a coffee this morning, then did a bit of shopping. I’ve been watching the England v Jamaica Netball match this afternoon, and we’ll probably watch a film together later after I’ve cooked us some food.

It depends what your goal is right now and whether you need to do that additional cardio on training days. Ideally I’d keep your cardio away from your resistance training or on rest days, but if you’re in a cut, then you just have to get it it when you can.

Today was Legs. A friend of mine jumped in on this session with me, which was really nice. I do love training alone, but it’s also nice to have someone to bounce off every now and then.
Strength and energy feels good right now.

Creapure is just a brand name for a pure Creatine Monohydrate. Both Creapure and creatine contain the same active ingredient, so as long as you’re buying 100% creatine monohydrate from a reputable company, I wouldn’t worry. tbJP Nutrition offer the most cost effective 100% creatine monohydrate, which we all use.

Today has been a rest day from training. I did a lovely run first thing this morning.. it seems to have rained non-stop for ages now, so it was nice not to get soaked! I then got some work done, before going to get a chiropractic and deep tissue massage treatment. I always feel incredible after these appointments, getting clicked and moulded back into place!

I would definitely bump food up now. As appetite is a struggle for you, I would just make small calorie increases once bodyweight has held for a couple of weeks and/or performance has stalled. I’d also add in small walks before meals to stimulate the appetite and include calorie-dense, low volume foods in your diet as Hilly has suggested.
Digest Pharma Pro and In-Sure may also help with digestion and the utilisation of carbohydrates more efficiently.
