Wouldn’t try and plan it too much in terms of timelines. If you decide to compete next year then sweet – that’s what first timer, and junior shows/classes are literally for. You’re not aiming to turn pro first time out so it’s more for your own enjoyment and going through the process. If that happens in 2025 or 26, it doesn’t matter. And from them you continue to build and progress 🙂

Ugh had a cold for a few days now and it’s taken itself up a notch today, felt shit all day. Didn’t train, not ideal but better than going and making it worse; had a complete rest day with a couple of small dog walks. Up early tomo for the PCA first timers as I have a few lads competing and will make sure I’m there for them – more bodybuilding updates in the new week

Took a trip down to Southampton today as I said yday. Was a longgg day but very good. It’s so nice doing things outside of bodybuilding from time to time and imo important to have other interests and hobbies. One of mine being cars and today I got to enjoy that day with a good friend of mine. Class day!

Yeah keeping things the same and trying to maintain strength as best as possible will see you keep as much muscle as you can. Towards the end you may be in a poison to adjust volume a touch – potentially remove any intensifiers etc but training intensity should remain. When very lean it’s a good idea to not do the grinder reps as they will cause more damage than good.

Rest day today so a nice chilled day with a few dog walks with kojo and a good work day. Travelling to Southampton tomorrow with Darren my training partner. He’s getting his car remapped – I love my cars so we’re having a lads day out 😂 then coming back to train in the late afternoon. Taking all my meals with me so nothing will be missed. Will prep up in the morning after doing a bit of work and then hit the road. Looking forward to it 🙂

Haha this thread is class. Love that you’re progressing so much bro! That’s epic, and even more class you can take a roasting and learn from it rather than go back to being team optimal hahaha good work man!

Feel mine a switch has been flicked and things seem to just be slotting together well. Training has been absolute fire this past week and my strength is back on the up again and my injuries seem to have quietened down somewhat so that I can push again. I’m riding the wave as best I can. Foods going in well. Things with Patrick are good! I cannot complain.

Just do the row with different grips and when you feel it most in the upper back, you have your desired positioning

Rest day today and tbh I’m smashed from training and come down with a bit of an illness mad headaches and a bad stomach. Not ideal hopefully it’ll pass overnight. Fingers crossed. Busy day of check ins tomorrow and training on the cards so don’t have time to be ill. 😅
Relaxed evening took kojo out for a 90 min long walk and watched a film, haven’t done that in ages but was nice to fully relax and chill 🙂

Such a great day there was a branch warren seminar on at the shed today and it was amazing to hear him talk alongside big James down the gym following a mega leg workout. Managed 10 plates an aside on the Roger’s hip press for 5 reps. Back off 7 plates for 19 which has properly cabbaged me 😂😂
But feeling very good and nice and strong! Looking forward to rest day tomo and then into a solid full week of smashing it with no plans to travel coming up so can strong some consistent weeks together now! Lfg!

Push day today. Class session. Also it’s been the europa pro show which was awesome to watch. Some friends competed who all looked awesome and was class to watch the pro show too. Gets me so extreme to make the improvements I need to to then get up there next year and make a proper statement!
