Unorthodox raises isn’t a specific movement (as far as I am aware) – bud the word itself means something different so perhaps whoever you heard using the term was referring to a technique differentiation in a normal version of a lateral raise.

Yeah I would do both rep rangers in every set so have your heavy set and then your lighter set after. Both still to failure though so even your back off shouldn’t be too light 🙂

whats your warm up protocol to prepare yourself mentally and physically mate? I sometimes find an exercise has come and gone before the spark has really been lit.. especially when its been a busy one with work to switch on and off from stuff!
Hey dude …. honestly. I start thinking about it before I’m even in the gym. I know the weights I need to do that day and I know they’re fucking heavy, and each week they have to get heavier.
When I’m in the gym I actually visualise myself lifting the weight before I do it. I spend a good amount of time with my headphones on with heavy metal on pre lift then I just go fucking ham on the lift.
Do or die. Every session.

Still getting stronger this cruise which is awesome! 300kg shrugs today which I’m super happy with. Deserved rest day tomorrow though!
I’m thinking of booking in weekly now with the chiro to keep me in check. Will cost me £ but I’m confident it will be a worth while investment.

If you’re doing a high rep set – I would hit your heavy hypertrophy range set and then hit the 20 rep set after. You’ll be surprised just how heavy you can actually go for 20 if you really apply yourself.

Yup. It depends would sum it up for me. There is not a generic number at all… we could probs help you specifically if you give us some more info?

Adductors form a vital part of the leg from a visual perspective. The people with the thickest looking legs ALWAYS have big adductors.
Not training adductors in your leg sessions is like training training back and not doing any vertical pull down movements… you’ll end up with body parts missing and an incomplete look.
Moral of the storey. Train adductors 🙂

So 11 months out from the British finals now. Off season is going well. Sitting at 117.3kg but still feeling in decent condition considering the weight gain post show. I’ll post a pic from today to show you where I’m at 🙂

Yes I get that when I’m super lean. It’s fucking intense! Just make sure you’re really hydrated and use an electrolyte formula. Also 2.5g taurine a day worked wonders 🙂

Much needed rest day today. Body is feeling battered and noticing being on a cruise now deffo. May have to change my split a little to accommodate more rest because at the mo it’s hard. I’ll persist another week or two then look to change.
Anyone else noticed this when they jump onto a cruise?
