    I’ve had a crazy busy month since my last update and so I’ve been sparse on the updates since. Training is going fantastically – I’ve had to make amendments here and there to simply fit training in my days for a few weeks here and there but on the whole I’ve taken progressions across the board. All to be expected as BW is creeping up nicely and recovery is surprisingly good considering how busy I’ve been. BW sitting at 78kg or thereabouts.

    Upper loading early AM today and a busy day with work for most of the day after. Rest day tomorrow and I’ve somehow been roped into a 5 a side football tournament in the afternoon. I used to play for a team MANY years ago but I haven’t played in some time now so wish me luck.

    Lower session yesterday followed by a much needed rest day today. Nothing crazy but doms hit me pretty hard from upper the other day. Upper loading in the books tomorrow and I’m eyeing up some nice loading on DB press for sure.

    Upper session in a very busy gym this bank holiday but a productive one nonetheless. I saw bodyweight tip into the 78s this morning which is new territory. Not all time new territory but definitely the best 78 has looked on me. Lower going down early AM tomorrow to kick off a busy day and I’m looking forward to it.

    VERY much needed rest day in the books today which is pretty fortunate because I’ve not had much time to do anything other than work today! Late PM session tomorrow for upper which I’m looking forward to.

    Lower loading went down a treat this morning – I’m going to need to find some alternative adduction abduction work for lower days because the kit I’ve got access to is pretty limited in terms of loading and ROM so I’ll update that on here once I’ve decided on a better option. Rest day tomorrow is VERY welcome.

    Absolutely fantastic upper session in the books this morning. A few changes to my schedule this week meant I had an entire session of just delts and arms this morning which was actually pretty fun. Going from my usual U/L to a more specific split today definitely had me feeling like I did an easier session but numbers were noticeably up from normal which is always fun. Lower loading in the books tomorrow AM

    I’ve had a VERY hectic last few weeks so updates are as follows:
    – TD macros are: P200 F45 C325
    – NTD macros are: P20 F85 C200
    – Steps averaging 8k daily
    – 20 min liss in the morning on NTDs
    – BW sat just sub 77kg with strength up on quite literally everything
    – Body composition is just about holding on at the moment – I expect a little tidy up around the end of May but that’s only pencilled in if body composition demands it.

    Split remains the same with U/L and training freq 4x weekly. I’ve not shown a lot of training on my socials recently but thats mainly a storage on my phone issue because training early AM has been going fantastically. Dial in and pumpage combo doing wonders as per.

    A MUCH needed rest day today – especially with work being jam packed and steps through the roof. Nothing crazy to report back bodyweight wise – sitting at the 76.5kg mark. Upper muscle rounds on the menu tomorrow early morning

    Lower loading today went down a treat early AM. All time highs on strength on leg press and across the board for lower body. I was a little concerned about how RDLs would go down considering how messed up my grip has been since moving all the gym kit over the weekend but wrist straps being on from warm ups pretty much sorted that.

    Absolutely jam packed bank holiday weekend moving gym equipment up and down stairs had me completely battered. Upper loading hit this morning nonetheless and actually went down pretty well. Rest up today ready for lower loading tomorrow AM.

    Early morning training session today went down an absolute treat. I’m definitely at all time highs on strength on the hack which is VERY fun. A pretty busy day for the rest of today with work. I’ve got a fairly laid back evening today before a rest day tomorrow. Bodyweight holding back at the 76kg mark with food still the same since the last update.

    A much needed rest day today but a busy one with work and steps high as per usual. Bodyweight took a bit of a dip today sitting in the low 75s after training yesterday. Nothing I’m alarmed by but I’ll bump food a tad if I don’t see it come back up by later in the week. Not much else on today other than work and meal prepping this evening!

    A busy one today with lower MRs early AM – bodyweight sitting in the low 76kg territory. Still taking steady progressions as the sessions come. A bit of work post training and then DIY for a few hours into this evening was on the agenda. Much needed rest day tomorrow 🫡

    I’m BACK from the brink of a pretty nasty stomach bug which wiped me out for a few days. Weight dipped down to 74kg at the lowest a few days ago but one upper session in yesterday and back to pretty much 100% normal foods and I’m sat back at 76kg. Macros at the moment are as follows
    TD: P200 C275 F40
    NTD: P200 C175 F80
