No Michael. I don’t use a weight belt. I got the hernias on a leg press. I always go deep as possible just short of rounding my low back…no half reps or quarter reps like we see in “Gym Fail”videos. Now i inhale on the way down and begin my exhale just before i press the weight up.
I always take my breath before I begin the eccentric so that my lungs are full (higher
Interstitial pressure throughout the lift) and usually don’t exhale until I’m the most part through the rep. If you exhale before or at the bottom then you’ll lose pressure – potentially fail the lift and leave yourself more open to injury and to things like herniastb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

@jellevdd let me know how you get on with it at that dome buddy – interested ????
I only went to 50mg anadrol and the effects were amazing – so so good for strength and size BUT it completely shot my appetite so we pulled it as food is more important. Food is king. I took mine am or pre training with my meal ????

Hey joe thanks for the reply (video) on IG on Sunday …. Motivated me to kill my Sunday session at the gym ….!!! And I have a question / What’s your Pre/Intra workout drinks looks like ( amount wise ?)
Hey mate hope you’re well! And no worries at all mate – ask away 🙂
Ok so pre i swap needed PREpare 2 scoops and Mega black pre 2 scoop plus 2 tabs alpha GPC and 200mcg Huperzine for that focus! … for my intra I’m having 2 scoops MPS max and 3 whole scoops of SUSTAIN all from Trained by JP Nutrition. Which are all amazing 🙂

Plus it’s cheaper ‘meal for meal’ compared to meat…

Of course you can bud, but as Oscar says it’s a great convenient easy way to get protein in. Don’t have to cook it and can travel easily too 🙂

Wauw huge news !! Turn up the heat ????????. Goodluck Joe – I had a question for you ; what are your thoughts about adding proviron to a test/deca stack? For more free test and libido boost? (And a little oestrogen benefits). Or just stick with the test/deca and see what happends ? (I also want to take Aromasin with it, but depends on my bloodwork ).
Thankyou Joe
Hey mate yeah man we take it all in our stride though. I’ll be ready ???? … I don’t see any problem with it to increase free rest and boost libido if you’re struggling, should help keep water retention at bay too – like you say it’s also good for estro control but can have an effect of hair loss soooo ????♂️

NEWS – what’s up guys ok so we’ve been informed to do an oversees international pro qualifier (ie. Portugal my show) you now have to have done a regional show in your own country – luckily there’s the Watford 2bros show 2 weeks before Portugal so I’ll now be competing in just under 7 weeks time! Good job we’re on track then eh!!! Haha
Also, sick leg session today and then off for a long walk on the hill by me. Not cardio just an hour or so stroll to collect my thoughts and chill. I love doing that – nothing mental but so so good to get out and clear your head!

Sleep is good and stress no more than normal. Been pushing aggressively for 12 weeks 2 sessions a day. So run down seems to be what I was thinking
Do you suggest a de load or full time out
100% run down and body is knackered, I’d take a deload week – same sessions just 1 working set at 80ish% effort. No failing. No cardio. Just rest and recovery. See how you are after that. Hopefully should get things firing again.

I can’t wait to try these out when I’m off prep – my current recovery capabilities wouldn’t be enough to deal with it right now though haha

Have you thought about going to university (if you have the entry requirements) – I did strength and containing and I learnt so much that I now use to this day with regard to my coaching both 1-2-1 and online.
You can go to uni or look into learning from home (id personally prefer to go as I’m pretty hands on as a person) – feel free to comment on my log and we can chat more about it if you want

Joe thank you for the reply mate. I think I would like to do something that I could do from home around my current job. Not sure I could leave my job and go to uni now with a mortgage etc. But I do want to slowly direct myself into a different path and hopefully one day leave this job and transition to the nutrition/ coaching side of things ???? since starting bodybuilding it’s literally all I wanna do haha [/quote]
Hey man yeah that’s totally understandable mate – yeah check out some shorter term courses and also some seminars from some of the leading fit pros – they’re always worth the money 🙂tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

What’s up guys. Just gunna be real with you – I had a shit session today. Head was all over the shop with some non gym related stuff and it really affected me and my ability to stay focussed in my session. It wasn’t the worst session ever but deffo not the best and I really noticed myself not being fully emersed like I usually am!
If this ever happens to you. Don’t beat yourself up. Shit happens and we’re all human. We can’t always be machines and smash every single aspect of gym and life. We mess up and make mistakes. It’s how we deal with it and how we recover that defines us as human beings. Big love guys have a sick weekend.
Back to the gym tomorrow to make up for today.
