My current split is
Monday legs
Tuesday push
Weds rest
Thurs leg/pull
Fri rest
Sat push 2
Sun restSo I get 3 rest days a week which is nice and needed for recovery when you train hard. Personally I’d struggle to do 3 sessions in a row for a long amount of time, the fatigue wound catch up with me. I’m actually getting the best progress I’ve had in ages on this split but it also gives me 2x push session a week:

Yo team travelled down to caveman training gym in stoke today – one of my clients owns it so a few of us headed down.
Was pull day and I hit an all time
Pb of 260×10 deadlift and also did a rep on 300 for good measure. The goal now is to build on that 300 weight for reps and just get nasty strong .. while on prep.I’m growing into this prep and feeling very good for it. Don’t even feel like
I’m on prep. Took the below pics today too. Happy with progress, sat just under 115kg at 12 weeks outtb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

Tbh some of the best coaches in the game don’t even have qualifications
There are no coaching or bodybuilding qualifications per se, but of course some will aid your knowledge
The nitty gritty of decision making in coaching etc will come from trial and error and gaining experience over time as well as taking as much knowledge as you can from others who have walked the path before you
This is coming from someone with a BSc. It was great, but I learnt more about ‘coaching’ from watching and learning from others.

Rest day today and managed to get in to see my massage therapist and boy did I need that. My whole right shoulder and all surrounding areas were SO tight which would deffo be effecting there injury that I have. I can now get in weekly for treatment so hopefully this will help me improve.

I always think you must pull hard but not at the detriment of form and ending up in the ‘cat’ position (straight legs and bent back and the bar has moved nowhere lol)… also don’t drop the weight but also no need for slow eccentrics imo on the deadlift

What’s good team. Hope you’re all well. Had a bit of an under the weather day. Decided not to train and get back to it tomorrow. My readiness was miles below where it should be and Generally felt shit so listened to my body and rested. Something I never used to do and would often find my self feeling under the weather more often than not. Listen to your body guys and taking the off extra day off will only help if anything at all!
