My man really enjoying this “change of style” haha
Can you outline the leg day and some of the other workouts? 🙂
Really curious as the feedback seems to be amazing! 🙂
Yeah I mean it’s for sure kicking my ass – but like anything requires high effort to get the most out of it
I’ll post example leg day below bro

Right legs Dom’s are nearly gone, I can still feel them but manageable now. That’s over 4 days now 😂
Anyway chest and delts yday I really like the session lots of supersets and fst7s – crazy silly volume but I’m loving it. Optimal? No. Muscular damage? Hell yeah 😂
On we go with the higher volume shit and I’m liking it more and more.

I cannot begin to explain to you how bad my leg Dom’s are from Saturdays leg session with Josh 😂 I can barely walk. Going in and down stairs is a struggle. Proper cooked 😂
Just goes to show it literally doesn’t matter what you do – the only thing that really fucking matters is effort. End of. Empty your tank on whatever you do and you will force adaptation.
It’s just really fucking hard to do on certain things, and that’s why most people focus on being ‘optimal’. Have a day off lol

Hi joe hope your well…
i been reading through this thread, been absolutely incredible to follow.
I had a question on your prep with Patrick, i noticed you didn’t utilize tren/winstrol for the prep, but more so anavar/halo… what was the thought process behind that? personal preference? or something Patrick advised,Hey buddy sorry I missed this man! Yeah so basically I cannot take tren it really makes me not feel myself in a bad way and I decided 3 years ago never to take it again, and instead I use Halo for its hardening and strength properties. Very good used pre workout imo. And Patrick said anavar impacts muscle fullness and strength through improved adp/atp resynthesis better than Winstrol does. So halo and anavar was a very good combo for myself. So a bit of both – personal pref and Patrick’s advice.

Such a good day today I filmed with big Josh Mayley for his pro series YouTube series. Took him through one of my high volume leg days and he said out of the 20 pros he’s trained with so far our session was the hardest one … I’ll take that! Haha class session then a good sit down chat/interview for a separate video (same series) overall such a good day catching up with Josh. Going to be in bits tomorrow!

Trained at the new kings gym today in tower bridge and I’ve been asked to be the one to open it officially by cutting the ribbon tomorrow. Will be the first time I’ve ever done anything like that so that pretty cool. Was down there filming some content today and then trained back after. Great session and the new gym is sick! Super clean and well done. Cool lighting and gym layout and highly recommend for anyone visiting London 🔥
Is it more of a commercial vibe in terms of equipment or is it like mitcham and croydon with a variety of different brands etc?

I wouldn’t say commercial no as the kit is legit, and yeah a few diff brands in there, got some prime bits too. It’s clean and new obv not a spit and sawdust vibe if that makes sensetb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

Rest day today after a couple of very hard training days. Was in for legs yday and today they are in bits. Tomorrow only going to be worse 😂 so so so many sets and again so different to anything I’ve done before, but absolutely feel the benefit so far. We’ll have to wait and see if it translates into more muscle. Still on only 300 test and 4IU GH in my fertility set up. But sitting again nicely at 265ish in pretty decent nick so should be in a great spot when we’re ready to push again!

Sounds like you might be pushing the weight up too quickly. If it takes two weeks to hit rep range, it takes two weeks. You can’t always progress everything every session. If you match the odd set but still progress elsewhere in the session you’re still winning.

Super busy with work at the moment- deffo not a problem but very much needing to be useful with my time right now.
Went in for a high volume fts7 style workout for chest and delts. 6 supersets and I be just worked it out it was 53 sets in total. I am completely cooked now.
Obv being on cruise makes it a lot harder as my recovery just isn’t as good as when I’m on cycle but loving it none the less.

Just take your anti inflammatory type supps / joint health supps as far away from training as possible
