Trained upper today at a different gym in London called Yorkys – old school gym run by an ex professional bodybuilder with her two sons now. Well selected kit in there!
First of my group coaching calls tonight and kicked off their 8 week programme. Looking forward to seeing their results. Back has been giving me some pain which isn’t great but we push on!tb-jp.com/collections/clothing - The most anabolic clothing ever! |

Decent leg day yday feeling pretty cooked today. Deffo feeling a bit run down too. I don’t ever really get ill, usually run down and then better, so hopefully this is like normal for me and doesn’t progress to anything worse. Wouldn’t be surprised though with what’s going around.
The Normatec recovery boots have been epic. I train legs/lower twice a week so pretty much have had them on every day and massively helping with my recovery!
Rest day today, back in tomo!

Good to be back in the fold again today. Normal working and training day back at full whack. Been training upper/lower of late which I’ve never really done in my life but I won’t lie I’m really enjoying it tbh. Feeling very strong as well training this way across all muscle groups.
Today’s sessions was:
Seated cable fly/press x 2
Nautilus flat press x 2
Panatta shoulder press x 2
Machine lateral raise x 2
Dual arm pull down x 2
Prime row x 3All sets 7-15 reps and all to complete failure.
Bosh. Just how I like it.

I hope you all have had a great New year! Happy new year to everyone. I had a great Christmas and new year back with my family and enjoyed all of my sessions back at the tbjp gym.
Back in London now it feels good to be back. Wondered if I’d think that but I do. Good day of work today catching up everything before the real stuff begins again on Monday!

Upper again today. Still been playing around with a few things with training – and upper lower seemed to fit best with timings and being at tbjp gym and wanting to train on lots of the kit there 😂
Started off with back today, pull downs, single arm rows, t bar row, cable fly, Atlantis incline press, cable laterals, bis and tris class session today!

I think if you increase dose depends on the goal. Do you just want to be high end of in range. Or happy to go supraphysiological? Either way assess with blood work and go from there. Agree with more jabs being better too from a hormone stability perspective.

Had an epic day today seeing old friends. We catch up every year and this year went for a curry and had a pub games evening – pool, darts and skittles which was epic! I was the captain of my team and we won which was great, obv with a few quid on the line too 🤣
Had a few days off the gym now with spending time with my family etc and it’s been brilliant 🙂

We’re all packed and ready to head home to Cheltenham tomorrow for Christmas. I’m actually super looking forward to it now! I can’t wait, haha I’m such a family guy and I just love spending time with my loved ones and of course the food! I’ve fully quit drinking a while back now so I don’t drink any alcohol anymore either, it’s all about the food for me 🤣🤣
