Agree with rich above here re a lot of variables attached to this.. it takes time, but if the split works for you, your able to progress & you take each phase seriously with training progressively with great form, you are fuelling your self with good nutrition (lots of whole foods) & recovering well, then of course & having structured phases of pushing & pulling back will help you to keep a track of your progress if you are taking photos & comparing them.

I used to prefer training early in the morning before work, I always found for me personally I did not have as much energy in the evening & it meant I was going to bed to late also trying to cram in meals, however, it’s different for everyone, have you tried both?

Great to hear, did you leave things the same or end up making any changes?

Fab training session today, came on a few days ago & gosh the difference is MENTAL. I don’t feel I’m dragging my self through the sessions at all, I really find I have to force my self in the weeks leading up to my cycle which takes the enjoyment out a little, I still train as hard, it’s important to switch off from my emotions as really I’d never get anywhere if I diddnt as it last for a long duration of time,

But wow, today was fun.. excited for the next couple of weeks!

I’d work on your breath work, breathing in to your chest through your nose, & out through your mouth on the explosive part of the set, potentially also, if it’s a fitness issue, you may want to add some form of cardio in, this could really help improve your sessions.

It’s pretty normal before the end of your set when pushing close to failure.. but if your struggling during hopefully this helps!

Rest day, a trip to Mac aesthetics today, for polynucleotides, which is a derivative of salmon / trout dna, and it is used to regenerate aswell as rejuvenate the skin, I’ve been doing alot of work since stepping off of stage here to help improve my skin heading into my next contest prep!

The rest of my day will just be work, steps & rest!!

I agree with Clare as above, if you are not gaining then yes you need to eat more if this is the current goal, we can’t not add fat whilst in a surplus but good whole food choices instead of processed definitely help this from my experience over the years, is your diet whole foods?

I agree with Oscar, I wouldn’t train these back to back, I’d just continue from the Sunday too.. I train one day on one day off split & if I’ve needed to, this is the approach I have been advised to take also!

Rest day today for me, some client work, a food shop, a nap & a trip to Smyths toys for Marc’s daughter’s birthday that is coming up.. a Sunday spent with her keeps me on my toes, a nice family day 🫶 ready for a big week ahead, dropping a 6 week challenge & working on our brand! Exciting week ahead!

Agree with the others above, time & consistency with this programming, but also just to be sure, are you eating in a calorie surplus alongside this?
