    I agree @samking104 ..the amount of perfectly good food that goes to ‘waste’ is very unnecessary.. however, any pizza that becomes contaminated with pineapple should most definitely be disposed of!

    Elbow/Forearm is easing off thanks. I’m just working around it, avoiding aggravating exercises and have increased curcumin, omega 3 and CBD.

    Cardio after every meal on the day you want to compete? That’s like trying to fill a bath with the plug out. Not a good idea.

    Rest day.. Lovely rainy day chilled at home. Caught up on some jobs, drank coffee and wasted time 🙂

    .. Coffee Connoisseurs! I love a good black Coffee. Give me your top recommendations. I’ve been trialling the Cannonball Coffee company’s blends recently, which I really like, but always on the look out for any new ones I haven’t come across yet.

    @corinne My parents were both teachers as I was growing up. We lived in Derby, so that’s where I’m originally from. My Dad was such a brilliant person, but sadly died suddenly when I was 18 years old. My mum continued to teach until eventually she fell in love again, which led to her moving further down South. They went away one year to Fiji and were heartbroken by the poverty and conditions the children were growing up in. It had such an impact on them, that this then led them to setting up a Charity, which is now known as ‘Children of Fiji”. It”s become very successful and they fly out there twice a year for a couple of months to continue their work.

    My Sis from Tenerife is hopefully coming over with her family in the Summer.. So fingers crossed we can all get together then!

    Hello @corinne! It doesn’t happen every year, but if there’s an occasion when my whole family can all get together.. that would be my favourite day. Spending time with my Mum, step Dad, both my sisters and all of our children together. My little sis lives in Tenerife and the bigger one’s in Hertfordshire. My Mum’s also very busy with a charity she runs and is away a lot travelling.. but when we do all get together it’s amazing 🙂

    Checked in with Jordan this morning. Weight is now 57kg. Training has been so good this week (ignoring the elbow!) and really pleased with my leg workout earlier. The only way I can describe how I feel with the inclusion of var is ‘full’ and ‘solid’.. if that makes sense to anyone! Anyhow we’re going to keep an eye on my weight, but Jordan seems to think it should level out next week, otherwise it’s official that I’m just fat, haha!

    LEGS 1

    Lying hamstring curl – 2 sets of 8-10
    Banded Hack squat – 2 sets of 8-10 
    Leg press – 1 set of 8-10
    Leg extension – 1 set of 8-10
    Single leg seated ham curl – 2 sets of 8-10 
    Abductor machine – 1 quad drop, 15 on the first
    Adductor –1 quad drop, 15 on the first
    Seated calf raise – 3 sets of 10-12 reps, 1 min rest in between, last set into a stretch

    What would be your reasoning behind wanting to programme 4 rotations?

    Tracking steps is a useful tool to use when you want to increase/decrease calorie expenditure. Just track them on an average day to see what you normally hit, then you can use that figure as a baseline and try to either increase it if you want to expend more calories or move less to reduce energy expenditure.
    It’s useful during a cut when you’re body naturally wants to make you move less. If you have a goal step count to hit, it makes you more conscious to keep moving.

    Rest Day for me today. Clients this morning and just wrapped up a Podcast/You Tube interview with Ryan Johnson, a US host for D.D on the Spot. I talked about my competitive and fitness journey, along with various other random questions. I’ll post up the link once it’s live if anyone’s interested!

    @samking104 I don’t use dry needling regularly. It was just a method that was used a couple of times last year with a physio when I had this elbow issue. I remember it eased some of the tension in my forearm, so figured I’d give it another go.

    Ooh prep time for you.. exciting! I’ll check your log out for sure.

    Another good workout. Still a bit frustrating as I know I can push heavier right now, but the elbow thing is still holding me back a little, although it’s getting better. Despite this though, strength was up, so can’t complain. You know when you get that one movement and you’re like, ‘YES, that’s the one!’.. that was me with Incline Press today!

    No Bicep curls again, but the rest of the workout is posted below:

    PUSH 1

    DB shoulder press – 2 sets for 8-10
    High Inc DB Press – 2 sets of 8-10
    Narrow smith Tricep press – 1 sets of 8-10
    Pec dec – 1 set of 15
    Seated DB side raise – 3 sets of 15
    Tricep rope pushdown – 3 sets of 12
    Abs – 4 sets of Ab rolls
