    Loving all the advice Lara ???? hope you’re feeling better mentally too. Been feeling similar lately too.
    You’re looking insane btw ???? glad someone like you is doing similar stretching and scapular retractions – makes me feel like they are not a waste of time!

    Hey Kate!
    Mentally I feel much better, my body reacts better to the changes in my diet and we are slowly getting there. The warm ups take time and sometimes I just want to lift but it’s really helpful so I’m always saying to myself, just do it and don’t overthink it ???? it’s the same with cardio ????
    How are you doing ?

    Was a good session yesterday, no squat movement because of my back but a PR on the legpress ????
    Early PT today and than pull !
    I did all exercises a little bit lighter than usually to make sure my traps will not do all of the work, especially the right one which caused me lots of troubles the last weeks. Blood flow was amazing and mind muscle connection to my right scapula gets better.
    Scapula pull ups for activation are amazing ????

    interesting ???? ahah scapula activation pull ups! checked out on YouTube! …do you perform some kind of upper mobility before to start your sessions? just to warm up or you go straight to a warm up set?  I m always using a band & do some shoulder rotation exercise, never done scapula pulls up as activation however there is something like this in my stretching routine! do you stretching? or foam rolling (stone) a part all treatments massages,… thank you! [/quote]
    I’m always warm up with an resistance band (shoulder rotation) and do some lateral raises , front raises for 2-3 sets (12-15 reps). The scapula pull ups are also new for me. My physiotherapist recommend this exercise to built up my rhomboid minor (which is really weak on the right side, this caused pain in my right traps  )
    I do foam rolling 2-3x times a week. But a deep tissue massage is way more effective in my opinion (1-2x per month)
    Stretching is also a big part in my routine, the more muscle I gained I recognized that my mobility suffered a lot… so that means post workout 5 min upper body stretching (every workout) and once a week lower body .
    Sooo I hope  all questions are answered ???? #prepbrain ????

    This is very person dependent.
    Eating a calorie dense meal pre bed, drinking cylic dextrin in the morning or eating a meal which is easy to digest could all work. Try it out 🙂

    When your goal is to reduce bodyfat (as you said) I would reduce intake a little bit and add cardio on my rest days

    Legs today ! Had a deep tissue massage for my back yesterday (after my workout.)
    So no squat movement for me today where I have a ton on my back ????
    Means I switch from hacksquat to legpress and maybe a little lighter than usually

    Finally home and food prepping is also done, this prep is way more difficult than the last time. Not physically more mentally..but this challenge makes me even better I know that 🙂

    Imo your upper body fits to the rest as Claire said adding mass everywhere would make sense

    It’s a loooong day for me , cardio, early PT, back home, food shopping , have been out with our dog twice and know I’m at work, I’ll have 3 pts later. Yay energy level is pretty low and calories on rest days also bad combination but necessary. Condition is getting better , tomorrow it’s time for a check in with my coach

    Never heard of that. If you need antibiotics, take them.
