1) yes! I use the pump product before stage and many others do too.

2) I’ve not noticed it being less effective personally. I use it every session and the only time my pumps have suffered was other factors like needing a deload etc. I don’t think there’s any harm in taking a short break from most products from time to time then adding them back in and see if you feel an added sensitivity to the product

But I do agree it’s a fantastic product

I mainly agree with what Tommy says here. If a body part isn’t growing at the same rate as the rest it is usually down to execution. Adding drugs will not bring a body part up if it’s not been worked properly to stimulate growth.

I would look at execution and frequency first

14 weeks out
254.4lbs and new low

Solid session today

UF Rotherham have had some nice back pieces delivered that I used.. just in time too as the first two exercises I do are pretty much maxed out.. these are like for like but nailed my back so I will keep these in now..

I was a little tight through my right scap and trap today so it made it difficult to drop my shoulders and elbows low enough. As my execution has been so good recently it’s small things like this that I notice straight away.

Some posing again this morning and post workout it’s actually crazy how different the 2 looks are in the same day.. fasted shots my body just hasn’t woke up yet and everything feels a little empty.

I’ll check in with Jordan tomorrow and I’d assume he will make some changes

Light liss for 20 mins won’t be a problem that close to the session imo.

If the sessions become harder or more intense keep them away from training

Hey mate.. like Ryan says it’s hard to say. Does it hurt just under the knee, above the knee, the side of the knee?… does it only hurt when fully extended, with load on it etc

Some more information would help but I would also get booked in with a physio ASAP regardless

Delts and tris today

I woke feeling very fresh and this showed in the session. All numbers with solid execution throughout all exercises

Things are starting to tighten up a little too. I was 254 this morning and vacuums were hit. A little uncomfortable to start but this will ease.. posing after training looked better too and shape is slowly changing.

In for back tomorrow so I’ll head over to Rotherham and train there

4 days also.. there is no comparison to hitting a body part as soon as it’s able to preform maximally again imo

Ok so when u say 4 days? Do u mean training days a week? Or a 3 on 1 off , so u hit same muscle every 4 days?[/quote]
Yeah so hit the muscle every 4-5 days depending on recovery. This will be typically in a ppl set up so volume can be lower

Hey Luke.

If you have been training a few years before I would say an upper/lower would be a shout to go back in on. The best split in this case is one that you can recover from and also enjoy.

Cardio isn’t really necessary straight away as you will be creating more of a negative energy balance already with better nutrition and then training again.. however a morning walk may be a good idea just to give you structure and set up the day. I find this helps a lot.

Hey bud.

Oral only cycles are ok if you are wanting to look good for a photo shoot.. on the beach on holiday etc and you don’t have access to any test like you say.

In your case an off season oral only cycle would provide some benefits like more strength, fullness.

However there are also reasons why it’s not optimal like possibly ruining appetite and your ability to eat in your off season.. 6-8 weeks will not really allow you to build any significant tissue and it will be a battle to hold onto what you do gain in that time.

If this is all you have access to though then I would advise anavar over dbol purely for appetite and digestion reasons..

I feel like this depends on the conversations you had prior.

To an experienced individual macros and a plan will speak volumes.. however someone who is not as educated or experienced I feel as a coach it’s our job to make sure you understand the plan fully and are competent in executing this. For £125 a month if you feel lost or unhappy then you may have made a mistake in your choice. See how the month goes and if nothing improves then he/she may not be the coach for you but I would give it a little time first

Tbf mate I maybe should have asked around a bit, I didn’t realise £125 was on the cheap side but thats obviously because I’ve never been coached before. We spoke before I honestly felt really good with him sorting my plan out and coaching me we got on well, as soon as the plans done in hardly any detail, he’s completely blunt with me and seems a bit reluctant to answer any question I have. I mean to completely ignore the forum I filled out in the first place about training times and training availability was just not a good start at all[/quote]
It’s an easy mistake to make bud. People are trying to sell a service so it’s unfortunately quite common in the online coaching world as soon as the sale is made you become a number on a spreadsheet. That should never be the case.

It wouldn’t harm to start having a look around and enquiring with other coaches and pricing incase the current coach doesn’t come through

Solid days rest today

Not done much which was good as I felt more tired than usual and it gave me chance to recharge.

Cardio
Mobility
Posed
Check ins AM
Food shop and steps
2 hour nap mid afternoon (usually 1hr)
Steps
PM check ins
1hr wind down and then bed

This is how I typically structure my days currently the only change would be physio if it lands on rest.

Today was the first day in a long time I’ve been hungry and not just a little it got me out of nowhere today and it’s a great feeling.

Slightly less bloated too now especially in the morning so from tomorrow vacuums will be back in also

Hey bud.

Yes these are all classic signs of needing to pull back. Usually a 7-8 weeks of hard training for most is enough to prompt one especially after a long lay of like you mentioned.

Signs will differ from time to time.
Lack of motivation
Stalled lifts
Regression
Tiredness
Trouble sleeping
Agitated
Poor digestion
Lack of appetite

Are some of the tell tail signs.

During the deload keep the food the same taste you have. Nutrition is a recovery tool also.

Time wise unless you are smashed then 4-5 sessions at baseline volume is usually enough to lift fatigue

If you are very lean eating at maintenance no matter the macro set up will leave you hungry regardless. Your body doesn’t want you that lean so it’s telling you to eat constantly through raised hormones like leptin etc.. only way to combat this is through voluminous food, drink coffee, teas for example
