Legs yesterday and rest day today
Waking up today at 75.9 which is a new low for me. Got it as expected this week 💪

Getting very very close to new territory weight wise during contest prep, so hoping this reflects come show day in condition.

Legs was brutal yesterday the ones where it disrupts your sleep 😂
RDL hit 200×9 reps, this is… Read more

76.3 on the scales today after 2 low days
Today I finished off my 3rd low day in a row, tomorrow or Fri AM should hopefully see a new low. Maybe see a 75 on the scales.

Fat is definitely coming off, but at the same time a bit of flatness for sure. Today was a tough day in the gym and did feel an energy sap, but keep reminding myself that this…

Good chest and arms session today
Strength still holding since coming back from lockdown and gradually climbing
Constantly resetting the DB chest press to ensure the depth is adequate
Chest has come on a lot this season and I place it down to getting very strong on the Db presses. It’s been in the program for over 2 years now and has just… Read more

End of week 26 – Averaging just under the 77kg Mark. Hitting a few 76.2-76.4 as lows
So should see me break the 75kg barrier by the end of next week.
75.4 being my lowest stage weight in 2019, I should be onto something special for this year.

Aim is to hit some elite level conditoning, if I do that win or lose, whatever federation, I don’t… Read more

Weight has been a bit up and down lately. Not really sure why. But still getting leaner, so thats the most important part.
My bodyweight is a stubborn fucker, can go down to 1300kcals and weight will still hold strong lol I think im just a good survivor or just majorly stressed out haha
Some small adjustments to food this week and gives me a…

Would love to. Just planning the route haha 😂 whether it’s better to drive or take the train. Probably have to stay for a week lol

It’s been an amazing 2 weeks back in the gyms so far and training has been awesome.

Previously before lockdown I had been playing around with alternating between 4-5 sessions each week.

Now with prep and recovery I have committed to just 4 times a week. I believe this will give me more recovery. And in turn allow me to keep lifts up and hold… Read more

Why not?

There’s something to be said for keeping to a rigid plan. The last 2-3 weeks I have stuck to a more consistent meal structure rather than doing more of the IIFYM style. Although weighing all my foods and macro counting. There is something reliable when it comes to just eating the same thing each and everyday.

Sure it might not be pretty but…

Appreciate that Kuba! Lets see hows things go, Still not even half way through the season. Started early this year. If its too early we will find out, but its all a learning process

Last weeks shots

Deload this week, rolling with a full week off from training. This matches up with my work schedule for this week, freeing up more time and also I am very much done with home training. haha

Solidifying my weight at under 80kg now, sitting around 79.4 most days edging towards the u79 mark soon.

Some new changes announced with federations in…

Week 17 of contest prep and having mixed days. Some days hunger kicks in more than others, but its part and parcel of contest prep.

No changes to food this week, but getting a bit more sleep has seen me around the 79.3-79.5 mark all week. So just goes to show the power of sleep and how much it can affect the amount of water retention.

I intended…

Entering week 16 of the diet. The last 4 weeks at 1900 kcals has been tough, really need to prioritise sleep more if I want to make it through prep 😂
But work is busy right now so taking up a lot of my time.
The thought of coming in without Corinne condition is keeping me on track.
2 more weeks of home training and a little bit of my… Read more

Entering week 15 of my contest prep season and things are starting to happen into the buisness end of prep and in my head I’ve broken it down into thirds.
The first third was going from 88-80kg.
Second third is now going from 80-75kg
And the final stretch will be 75-70kg
This next 5kg is what will really start to show in my physique and 75kg was… Read more

I did the biomechanics course. Program design course is different. I think its above me lol so I dont really know what to make of it.

Wed – Arms

Thurs – Back Delts

Fri – Legs

Sat – chest arms

Sun – Back delts

Been a hot minute since I have used this log.

But life hasn’t been that interesting since October.

I am restarting this but will change the title as now its a transition into prep.

Ive been dieting for around 10 weeks or so now already (started Dec 7) looking to compete around fall time. So I still have about 25-30 weeks to diet down for…

Not really, Initially yes, I did consider it roughly.

But Trial and error process and over the weeks auto regulating sets according to strength progressions and recovery

If not this year, will you then look to compete next year?
I know before you mentioned you had a lot of clients competing 2021 so didn’t want to compete then.
Might look to be even more stacked next year if this year is postponed.
